Well I'm used to having the world standard keyboard which is qwerty and not qwertz... But on Windows I can't find the choice for German input which would be qwerty, not qwertz. In Linux there was German input with qwerty so it was fun. I believe it should be on Windows too? Cause i'm sick of this qwertz always having to correct and search for z or y...
Edit: Maybe I wasn't clear enough, it's not about changing between different language inputs? It's about having all german keys in german input, just the z and y would be in the correct places like all the worlds keyboards use and like the US keyboard uses.
Thanks for the answers that have been given, but unfortunately by searching everywhere and waiting for answers I couldn't find what I needed, so I came up with this solution - I used The The Microsoft Keyboard Layout Creator
It will appear as a choice under German input between languages in your language bar. If you just want to use this german layout, just remove all german layouts and install this one. Good luck and have fun using it!
You should have a little DE or EN in the lower right corner, where the volumne indicator and various other status icons are. Click on it, and you'll see a menue to choose between the configured language settings.
In Windows' Regional and Language Options control panel dialog box on the Languages tab, you can choose different keyboards. On my Win XP system there are two choices for German, plain German and German (IBM). The latter might have the QWERTY layout you want.
If you want to type umlauts on a keyboard fast, use US-International keyboard layout (LAnguage Bar>Settings>Keyboard). On this layout use Shift+" then type the letter that needs double dots to be added. For caps, don't release Shift+" when typing the letter.

Opening Tilt and Turn windows could not be simpler. The window has one handle, it allows easy operation for anyone. All positions can be chosen with an easy, one-handed action. In the downward position of the handle, the window is in the locked state. The window is secured with multiple locking points all around the frame. This makes the windows secure, unlike common windows which hold only by the hinges and one locking points. By turning the handle by 90 degrees the windows can swing inwards, this is the turn position. Another 90-degree rotation enables the tilt position. In this position the window can be pulled towards the user, tilting the window inwards. When the window is tilted inwards, it creates a gap in the upper part of the window. This gap is used for air extchange. The tilt function also has a micro ventilation mode. In this mode the handle is between the turn and the tilt position. In this mode, there is a small, narrow gap for slow but smooth air exchange.
