My EZAccent windows keyboard will do all of the set up (in the control panel
for you when it is installed).  It also has a much easier placement of
accents for typing in Greek.  (All of the letters are the same as the Greek
National and Windows Keyboards it is just the system for accenting that has
been improved.)

You can download it for free here:

Here is a link to a PDF with Keyboard Maps that explains the layout and how
to take advantage of the easier accent system.
