Change keyboard layout with Nlite


Recommended Posts

I want to create an unattended windows 2000 sp4 cd.

Overhere we work with a keyboard with azerty layout.

Dutch (Belgium)

How can I change it when I use Nlite (latest version)?

On default Nlite use a keyboard layout "qwerty".

So far Nlite is a good working programme.

The way I do it in my unattended XP SP2 setup is via a reg file which is run at RunOnceEX. What I want is to use the 'US' locale with finnish kb layout and here's how it's done:

;-----
;-----  Set Keyboard Layout to Finnish
;-----
[HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Keyboard Layout\Substitutes]
"00000409"="0000040b"
[HKEY_USERS\.DEFAULT\Keyboard Layout\Substitutes]
"d0000409"="0000040b"

Not sure if the same reg tweak applies to Win2k, can't check right now, but I'd think so. And you'll have to check your current system for the right code for the azerty layout to replace the "40b".

Alternatively, you might try to manually edit your WINNT.SIF.. Just replace the "40b" to whatever the code is for azerty layout. Have never tried this, so don't know if it actually works. The reg tweak should work for all users, though.

[RegionalSettings]
LanguageGroup=1
SystemLocale=00000409
UserLocale=00000409
InputLocale=0409:0000040b

Here's some explanations:
