keyboard question for beginner

i've quickly searched the website but couldn't find exactly what i was looking for. when i took my only semester of russian in college, the lab had an on-screen keyboard for help. does anyone know if there is one that can be downloaded for free out there? i can pay for one but i though i'd check for the lesser expensive option first. thanks-b.

Thw Windows XP has it's own on-screen keyboard. Just choose:

Start -> Programs -> Accessoires -> Accessibility -> On-Screen Keyboard

But to use the russian keyboard layout, you have to activate it at first.

how do you activate it for russian?

Start -> Settings -> Control Panel -> Regional and Language Options -> Languages (tab) -> Details (button) -> Settings (tab) -> Add (button) -> choose Russian in both fields

P.S. You don't need to do that, if you already have the russian keyboard layout installed.
