It sounds like you're experiencing keyboard layout issues while trying to log into your Windows 7 Enterprise Edition notebook. Here are steps you can take to change the keyboard layout back to English:

Changing Keyboard Layout on Windows 7 Login Screen:​

1. On the Windows Login Screen:
   • Look at the bottom right corner of the login screen for the current keyboard layout. It will typically display "ENG" for English. If you see a different language code, this is the source of the problem.
   []Changing Keyboard Layout:
   • To change the keyboard layout back to English:
     • Press the key combination that switches between keyboard layouts. Normally, this is Left Alt + Shift or Right Alt + Shift.
     • Try different key combinations until you find the one that switches back to English.

       Change Keyboard Language in Control Panel:​

       If you want to permanently change your keyboard layout to English, you'll need to access the Control Panel:
   []After Logging In:
   • If you manage to log in with the current keyboard layout, you can change the keyboard settings.
   []Access Control Panel:
   • Click on the Start button, navigate to Control Panel.
   • Look for "Region and Language" or "Clock, Language, and Region" (depending on your Control Panel view settings).
   []Change Keyboard Settings:
   • In the Region and Language settings, go to the Keyboards and Languages tab.
   • Click on Change keyboards and add English as your default keyboard layout.

     Keyboard Shortcut for Changing Language (After Logging In):​

     If you successfully log in but still need to change the keyboard language, you can use a keyboard shortcut:
   • Press Left Alt + Shift or Right Alt + Shift to toggle between different keyboard layouts.

     Additional Help:​

     If you're still unable to resolve the issue, you might need to consider external tools like a live bootable USB with a different keyboard layout.
