OK, sorry for that, but I could not resist it :lol:
Just like when that guy said he couldn't run "Basilesk" under Windows CE and I said "have you tried with Basilisk yet" :lol:

So much for the funny part.

I have personally sorted the keyboard problem out by creating a new keyboard layout description with ResEdit, directly into the MacOS.
I think you have to look for the keyboard resource in the System file (make a backup copy first just in case).
I was able to map the various keys to the symbols appearing on my keyboard, and then saved this layout as "Windows" and then selected it in the control panel.
I'd say that 98% of the keys work as expected now.
I'm sure other people in this forum can give you more specific directions about this in case you need it.

Have fun :wink:
