How do I get my Russian Keyboard to type in Russian?

[Alex]

I bought a keyboard in Russia. Installed the drivers. Downloaded the
Cyrillic from MS site. So now how do I get this blasted thing to type in
Russian. It has the overlays on the keyboard.

What does this have to do with Microsoft Office?

Be sure your Windows CD is available to the system.

Go to Control Panel > Regional and language support >
Languages > Details > Add

In the "Input language" drop-down menu, scroll down to
"Russian".
