I have both an azerty and a qwerty keyboards on my computer.
The azerty keyboard (FRA) is a real keyboard.
The qwerty keyboard (ENG) is a magnetic track card reader recognized as a keyboard.
My windows 8 (but could be any windows) is configured with both FRA and ENG regional settings and I can switch easily between the two configuration using ALT+SHIFT.
I am wondering if there is any way to force the keyboard disposition (for one or the other) at a hardware level, perhaps by using a specific driver file or a specific software ? The main objective is to be able to use both inputs without having to change the keyboard layout in windows.
Many thanks for your help and/or your ideas 🙂

The card reader could be setup as an OPOS card reader. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/OPOS Many manufacturers have OPOS drivers along with how-to setup instructions.
Use a google search to look for your exact model and manufacture, Unless it is something that belongs in a museum, there should be resources.
