There are two ways to fix this. If you are confident that you will never want to use the English (US) setting for your keyboard, select the following option:
Close all applications.
Select Start | Settings | Control Panel | Keyboard. Select the Input Locales tab and, in the list below Input Language click on EN English (United States) to highlight it.
Click the Remove button.
Ensure EN English (United Kingdom) is the only keyboard installed. Click on OK.
If you wish to retain the option to use the English (US) keyboard setting, follow the procedure below:
Close all applications.
Click on the blue EN button in the system tray on the bottom right hand corner of the screen.
Select EN English (United Kingdom).

All you need to do is change your keyboard settings to English (United Kingdom) rather than English (US). This is done as follows.
For XP
Go to control panel, Regional & Language Options, Regional Options tab: Set format to English (United Kingdom) & Location to United Kindom.
Under Languages tab: Click Details button->settings tab->default input language set to English United Kingdom
Installed services, click "add button" choose Input & keyboard as English United Kingdom.
For Win 2000
Control Panel. Regional Options. Input Locales Tab. ->Add button->choose English United Kingdom & set this as default.
Hope this helps

Easiest way is to buy a new keyboard, they are quite cheap if you look either on ebay, argos or pc world and many other places!
