Chances are, its nothing to do with the screen reader giving such a problem but the hardware. Did you try to tab on the alt or ctrl key a couple of times? Some sort of key is being press down which interfere with what you wanted to do.
Or even just the keyboard itself not giving out the right native command to windows. -------- ---------------------- regards Thomas N.

I decided for ease of use to buy an external keyboard to connect through USB. Everything works all right, except for the "mouse" functions controlled by the numpad part of the keyboard. When I press the numlock key, I can still move the mouse pointer up and down the screen with the #8, and the #2 keys. However, using other keys with the insert key don't work properly, and pressing the - key which is supposed to switch between the Mouse Pointer, and the WE cursor only produces --. And it doesn't matter if the numlock is on or off. I'm starting to thin that it may be a problem with the USB ports, but they work for some things. Anyone have any ideas? If I can fix this without having to have the computer repaired, that would be a lot better, and faster. Any advice would be greatly appreciated.
