I have a new computer, this one is an HP touchsmart and i can't seem to figure out how to use the diacritical markings. Anyone out there that can help? For example, with my old computer I simply hit "ctr-alt" + 160 and I received "la a con acento". Pero con esta computadora hago igual y recibo nada. Ayudame por favor.

Why are you holding down both the "ctl" and the "alt" keys? In MS Windows systems one holds down only the "alt" key while typing the numbers.

I always use the 'Accents' drop-down menu, just above the text box.

There are many other suggestions in other threads. See if this one helps.

¿y porque no Windows en español con un teclado español?. Sería mucho más cómodo.
