Hash key under Windows

I need the Hash key under Windows. On my Macbook with a UK keyboard layout, the hash key is usually ALT+3. This doesn't work on Windows. Any ideas?
 
Hm... then they are switched, # to get £ and vice versa.
Odd, I've got UK layout (the annoyingly shaped enter key..) and when I check in Fusion, shift-3 gives # for me. Perhaps my layout is US then ..
So http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Keyboard_layout#UK_and_Ireland this suggests it would be the key on left from the enter/return key (lower row of the two), as lower case. (I guess I should remember better using that layout 8-5 nowadays..)
 
I've figured out a solution. I just switched the keyboard layout from GB to US. It all keys seem to work and the pound key is now replaced with a hash key.
 
Found it after about 2 hours of trying...

For UK Mac users running windows the # "hash key" is the "backslash key" next to the enter key.
