Krappy keyboard

Default Wrong characters appear when striking keys.

I have an Acer laptop with windows XP. I cannot get correct symbols, as
displayed on the keys, when I hold down shift and the key simultaneously. For
example - shift+3 should give a pounds sterling symbol, I get # and shift+'
should give at symbol, I get " shift+2 should give speech marks (as previous
for at symbol), I get @ symbol instead!! It is driving me nuts. What can I
do? Can anyone help please?
