Hi

One of our users has loaded WIN XP on to his Apple Powerbook (to run some
special programs.)

I cannot log him onto our Windows domain without and external keyboard, as I
cannot find the DEL button when trying to CTRL-ALT-DEL to log on!!

Any ideas please

TIA

Lewej

Hi Lewej!

You'll need to install a keyboard remapper for Windows. Have a look at
this MacWorld article, which mentions this as well as other things you
should know about Boot Camp.
