How to type accented words

Hi everybody! Hopefully someone can help me out. I need to know how to type accented letters, as in foreign language typing.

 

I take my Dell back and forth between college and home; I have an Aptiva PC at home, and I know how to create accented letters on it, but it involves using the Alt key and the keypad to the right of the regular keyboard.

 

Any ideas on how to make accented letters on a Dell? There is no keypad to the right of the regular letters, only the numbers above the letters. Obviously to create a ~(tilde), I'd press the Shift key to get to that function. I'm at a loss as to how to type a letter with that already above it, plus other accent marks.

 

Please help if possible!

 

Thanks!
