Thanks for sharing. I'll have to see if there's a way to toggle the touchpad on and off, as my sighted husband thinks he needs it. <grin> The one thing I haven't figured out how to do with the Toshiba I just got is to read the screen with the mouse. My FN key seems to work normally, in that I can do FN-J or FN-L or FN-U and have it go to various corners of the screen. I would have thought that FN-I or FN-comma would move it up or down line by line, but that hasn't seemed to work for me yet. Guess I'll have to play with the key describer and see if I can learn anything. I bought an external numpad keyboard, but it doesn't work like the one on my desktop computer. When I try to do mouse commands with it, it starts to say a number, then says "numlock off", which I know. I'll have to have my husband go through the manual with me and see if we can figure out what the various keys do on my particular netbook. But if anyone can offer things I might try in the meantime to move the mouse up and down line by line, I'd be a happy camper. <grin>

Hello all

I have recently acquired an Asus NetBook and I use it with Window-Eyes. It works like a charm.I am also using the standard Window-Eyes keyboard layout and have access to all commands.

Someone wrote that they weren't sure if one could permanently disable the mouse tracking pad and I am please to say that one can do so quite easily. There should be an icon in the Systray called Elantech Smart Pad. Enter on this icon. A multi tab page dialog will appear. Go to the tab called Elantech and tab to a button labelled Disable and press enter. Close the dialog and you won't be bothered by the pesky tracking pad again.

Regards

Christo
