Yeah, I finally found that hardware and sound lastnight but there was
nothing to change the function key as you are saying. So I'm guessing Bios
is the only way to do it.

Hello there;
If you go into control panel,
You will land on the search edit,
If you tab one time you may hear,
Small or large icons,
If you press spacebar, up arrow, you will hear, cadigory,
Press enter.
Now, if you tab you should find hardware and sound,
However, there's no setting to change the function key behavior. At least
I
haven't found such setting on a dell laptop.
Note, if you change to cadigory within the control panel, you won't be
able
to letter navigate, so you will need to change back to large or small
icon.

I don't have hardware and sound as an option together. Only thing with
hardware is add hardware.

Just go to Control Panel -> Hardware and Sound -> Adjust commonly used
mobility settings -> Fn Key Behavior
Change it to "Function key"

My Dell 1545 is the same way. I haven't found any settings to change
this,
and it is rather annoying.

Yep, you are right. I had to get my husband to go into the bios and
change
it.

Subject: [JAWS-Users] The function key
Hi all,
I just got a new HP 64 bit laptop, with a full keyboard. I purchased
the
full keyboard computer so I wouldn't have to deal with the laptop
configuration. With this new computer though, I need to press the
function
key to use any of the Jaws f key functions. Is there a way to switch
the
default on the function keys so that the function key needs to be
pressed
for the opposite of what it is presently set up to?
For example,, the f12 key is presently default to turn on and off the
internet. In order to read the time I must press, the fn key, the f12
and
the Jaws key. As you can imagine, while trying to do the links list
Jaws
key f7, on the internet this is a feat in dexterity! I want to make
that
the secondary function of the f 12 key and let the Jaws key f12 speak
the
time and date as it did on my old computer.
Is this a possibility? How would one accomplish this task?
Thanks in advance,
Dixie
