A:Answer I'm fluent in 3 languages (English, Spanish and Italian) and I have the same problem. However, the truth is that the ONLY keyboard that can "easily" do all accented characters (like this à á è é, ñ etc., but also ô ä ü ã, etc.) is the US keyboard. You must set the keyboard in Windows to US-International. Then all accented characters are typed as two-keystrokes. For example, apostrophe + a will give you á; tilde (~) + n will give you ñ or Ñ. If you want to type the apostrophe, you do apostrophe + space.
It may seems weird initially, but it doesn't take much to get used and after that is easy. I have many friends in Latin America who ended up buying PCs in the US with the US Keyboard and all of them are using this "trick" to write accented characters in Spanish.
