I now booted op my Mac 512. With another M0110 B keyboard. To be sure also an other boot disk, with Finder 1.1....

Same error......

So I started to think. Would be strange to have two keyboards with the same membrane shorting. Especially when I found out that also on the first row something strange happened.

First key was not a paragraph sign (§) as expected, but a back tic (this is the one: `). Then I begin to think about a software problem

I do have more 400K system disks. One of them is a Macintosh system disk with Finder 4.1 on it.

This one boots the 128K and the 512K. And most important.... no shifting in characters!!!

First row goes like this:

§1234567890-=

Second:

qwertyuiop[]

Third:

asdfghjkl;’ and the ` is the return key. The return key gives a backslash \ and with Shift a pipe |

Forth

\zxcvbnm,./

On Finder 1.0 and 1.1 it goes like this:

First row goes like this:

`1234567890-=

Second:

qwertyuiop[]

Third:

asdfghjkl;’`

Forth

zxcvbnm,./ and the last key..the / doesn’t do anything. Also not with Shift

So with this system you cannot use the \.

Anyone has a clue what goes wrong? I didn’t find any keyboard settings in System 1.0 or 1.1.
