BootCamp 3.2 - PowerPoint crashes when typing in a textbox (Office 2007 & 2010)

Issue

PowerPoint crashes as soon as you type in any text box.
(This will occur even if TurningPoint is not loaded with PowerPoint)

The Boot Camp Services adds a United States (Apple)(Default) Keyboard entry in Regional Language Settings for the keyboard.
This keyboard entry is what causes the issue.

Resolution

1. Open Control Panel
2. Click the hyperlink under Clock, Language, and Region that reads Change Keyboards or other input methods
(If you are in classic view Open Region and Language option)
3. Click the Keyboards and Languages tab.
4. Click Change keyboards...
5. Click Add
6. The Boot Camp services will have United States (Apple) (Default) enabled in bold. Check the option underneath it that just says US and then OK so it will add both.
7. Press OK
8. Press OK
9. Close the Control Panel
