I've installed English xp on a Korean laptop, and I was wondering if anyone knew how to make the little button to the right of the spacebar switch languages. I already have the Korean IME installed, I just want that one-touch button to do the job instead of Left-Alt shift or whatever...

Found the answer after some searchign and playing around with the registry. I'll put the solution here for anyone who has the same problem:

Run regedit. If you don't know what you're doing, I advise you not to play around.

navigate to:

HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Services\i8042prt\Parameters

Add the following registry values:

LayerDriver KOR REG_SZ kbd101a.dll
OverrideKeyboardIdentifier REG_SZ PCAT_101AKEY
OverrideKeyboardSubtype REG_DWORD 3
OverrideKeyboardType REG_DWORD 8

It works, but the language bar must be set to Korean anyhow. This just switches between Hangeul and English letters.
