Hi,

I installed windows XP on my Macbook with bootcamp 1.1.2 beta.
Everything works perfect, but

- the function key’s on the keyboard or not “right”.
On a windows keyboard, you press the “alt gr” key + 2 to get the “@” function.
On the macbook, the @ symbol is located next to the number 1 key.
I solved this problem by making a “new language” by the program Microsoft Keyboard layout creator.

I notice that alt gr the same is as ctrl + alt.

Also, all the function key’s are working.
In XP, I give short cuts to the function key’s F8 – F11.
But the function key F12 does not work. I cant get par example start excel with F12.
Does it maybe have a special function?

Another problem is the trackpad of the macbook.
When I connecting a power mouse, I have the right click function of the mouse.

When I disconnecting the usb mouse, and use the trackpack, I can’t right click.
Does anyone has a solution for this?


Thanks!
