I would suggest you use Myanmar2/Myanmar3 instead. Because of the
following reasons:

1. Myanmar1 is based on an oboselte standard of Unicode and is not
compatible with the newer standard.
2. Myanmar2/Myanmar3 has a new highly smart keyboard layout which
makes learning the layout much faster that usual.

Download the zip file below which contains Keyboard and Font.
http://www.myanmarnlp.net.mm/downloads/Myanmar3_Unicode.zip

But if you *still* wish to use Myanmar1, than you can get the keyboard
layout from here:
http://www.myanmarnlp.net.mm/opentype.htm

If you still have problems installing the keyboards please let us
know. If you wish to use ZawGyi layout to type Myanmar3, I can send
you an experimental version which is not fully tested yet and is not
100% complete. Some users have experienced problems on Windows Vista
with the keyboard from Myanmar3, but I personally had not experienced
this. Hence if you are having trouble installing the keyboard on Vista
just post back here with the details of the error and some screen
shots if possible. Thanks.
Cheers,
Ravi.

Myanamr3.kmx file can not be install on some of Vista by double-
clicking or executing that I found on my friend computer.
I solved like that
If Keyman is installed and running on Taskbar,
(1) R-click on it and then choose Configuration.
(2) << Install Keyboard... >> button click
(3) Browse .kmx file

btw..
I just finished making installer setup file in one package that
included Myanmar3 fonts, Keyman and Myanmar3 layout and additional
files to enable Complex Script. So no need to go Control Panel ->
Regional and Language Option. Also It has documents such as Typing
Order, Using Keyman, Installation manual.
It is bad cause of 6.36 MB size. This package will be distribute in
the ICT show at Ya Da Na Pon City.

Cool. Can I test a copy of the installer? It is tested on all major
Windows Platforms? I would like to try it out on:

1. XP (SP2 required?)
2. Win2K (SP4 required?)
3. Win2K3 Server (SP2 required?)

Sorry for my late. So I trying on Win2K and Win2K3 on this days. :)
Now I modified for all.
I had tested on Win2K and Win2K3 SP1 Enterprise. It's OK.
Win2K sp1 and sp4 has same version of usp10.dll
I had not tested on Vista yet. Because we don't have Vista's
requirements machine.
Myanmar3 setup file is here
