Default Input Locales
Applies To: Windows 7, Windows Server 2008 R2
Note
This content applies to Windows 7. For Windows 8 content, see Windows Deployment with the Windows ADK.
Input locales are pairings of an input language (the language hexadecimal identifier) with an input method (the keyboard hexadecimal identifier). Specifically, an input locale describes the language being entered, and how it is being entered. For example, to set the input locale to Italian using the Deployment Image Servicing and Management (DISM) tool, you would use the value 0410:00010410. Where 0410 identifies the language, and 00010410 identifies the keyboard. Alternately, you can use the language/culture name to specify an input locale, (for example, it-IT) and the default keyboard that will be used. For more information about language hexadecimal identifiers and language/culture names, see Available Language Packs.
The following table lists keyboard hexadecimal and decimal identifiers for keyboards that are available for all default versions of Windows®. You can also install support for additional keyboard types. The valid keyboards that can be configured on your computer are listed in the following registry key: HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\ControlSet001\Control\Keyboard Layouts
