whc
MemberYes the friking “@” combo does not work, very strange, I hit the “ALT GR” and then “@”, and nothing happens, other than the window reacting to my key press.
Works fine in Windws XP, but not on Windows 7, all other “ALT GR” comboes work just fine though, just the “@” is not working, very strange, and any solution to this?

MemberIs it a US keyboard or something else? Might be it’s something to do with the keyboard layout setting……

MemberIt is a Nordic keyboard, an everything else works, just the @ combo. Contacted Samsung, and they told me in December all Samsung computers will support Windows 7, that is a long time to wait.
Am very close of sending it back, to many problems getting Windows 7 on here, and to bad build quality IMO for the price, I can get the HP DV2 for the same price here in Denmark (basic model), am very close to getting it instead.
Nobody with this problem?

MemberProblem solved: was the VGA driver, in “ScreenToys/Hotkey settings” (Right click the desktop, and select ScreenToys), there is a hotkey for “Switch Device” Ctrl+Alt+2, just turned it off and problem solved, me so happy :).
Only a problem if you have to use the AltGr (Ctrl+Alt) combo to get to the @ symbol, like we do here in the North.

MemberI had the same problem myself with my NC20. you can go wrong when you set it up initially with regional settings. I corrected it in the end by this:
Control Panel
Regional Language
Advanced – set to English (UK)
Regional Options – set to English (UK)That fixed it for me!
Hope this helps

[/quote1255620150]I had the same problem, but I solved it changing the hotkey to Ctrl+Alt+4, for example.
