On many keyboard layouts (other than the US), the right alt key stands for both the alt and the control keys together, forming what's sometimes known as the alt-gr key. So, if you want the United States keyboard, press left-alt+shift until JAWS will oblige and say, "setting Keyboard layout to US".

 Subject: [JAWS-Users] Del Laptop Keystroke Question

 Hi All,

A friend is trying to get Jaws to work correctly on a Del Inspiron 512 computer running Windows7 64 bit & Jaws13 latest. When he invokes the,
Alt
+ Tab keystroke, Jaws reports control, alt, + tab. Or, When he types the
 quote sign, Jaws reports a Spanish letter.  Does this behavior have
something to do with the FN key & its functions? If so, how can or, what
 can he do to make Jaws report correctly?  All help will be greatly
 appreciated.
 Take care.
 Mike
