in w95 it was possible to change layot of some keys, i.e. it was possibly to made any symbol you wanted to appear when pressing some some key (or combination of keys) instead of default symbol. i.e. it i can redefine layot of some keys so when i pressed, for example, [Shift]-[5] - appeared ~ instead of default %
sorry i can't remember right now how i done it but it seems not working in w2k they way i done it in w95. so the question: is it possible to redefine layot of some keys in w2k and how it should be done?
p.s. and i don't afraid of manually hacking binary files, so any ideas and recommendations will be appretiated. ;)

Here's some shareware that seems to do what you want.

After browsing dozen sites I've found after all application that looks good to me (although it is not freeware). One of big advantages is it don't uses some kind of internal mapping of keys but instead changes windows system files, so the result is fast working and you need to load program only once - to redefine mapping of keys.
