It's been a while Pranav, but here's something I got off the web.  I
remember that it was someone on this list who originally helped me when I
installed XP Pro.  I thought you used voice-activated???

To remap your keyboard on a Windows XP machine:

  1.. Click on the "Start" button
  2.. Click on "Control Panel"

  3.. Do one of the following...
    a.. If you are using Category view.... Click on "Date, Time, Language
and Regional Options" and then "Add other Language". This should take you to
the languages tab.
    b.. If you are using Classic view.... Click on "Regional and Language
Options" and then click on the "Languages" tab.
  4.. You should be on the languages tab currently. Click the "Details"
button.

  5.. You should now be taken to the Settings tab. Click the "Add" button.

  6.. In the "Add Input Language" box, choose "English (United States)" as
your input language and "United State-Dvorak" as your Keyboard layout.

  7.. Click "OK" to the "Add Input Language" box.

  8.. Configure any additional settings on the "Text Services and Input
Languages" box.... for example, you can set which language is the default
and whether your language preference will appear on the language bar on your
task bar.

  9.. Click "OK" twice more.

The first time you do this, you should have your system disks/CD-ROM
handy, but everytime afterwards you will not need you system disk/CD-ROM.
