I tried that with my laptop but nothing changed. I still need to hold
down the insert and function key prior to using the function ro to
invoke a jaws command.

Hi, here is a thought.
Do you have insert mode turned on, because if you do all you have to do is
press insert and let go, and press the other key.s This acts like you have
the insert key pressed down.
Here is how you turn insert mode on
1, press insert 6, on the number row
2, press ctrl shift D
3, arrow down to users
4, right arrow
5, down arrow to insert mode
6, make sure it is checked
7, tab to ok.
I hope this makes things better.

Hi James,
You have to angle your hand and stretch those fingers with the left hand.
And with the right press the insert.
It works on this end.
HTH,

How exactly do I do this? My problem is that I can not hold down the "FN
Key", the "insert Key", and the "f7 key" all at the same time. Do I press
the "Shift Lock key" and the "FN key at the same time? Or, do I press the
"Shift Lock key" first and then the "FN key?
Thanks for your help so far.

Use the shift lock key and FN key along with the function keys row. I have
the same issue with my Gateway laptop.

Hi;
I have a Dell Inspiron 17 laptop. I am running Windows 8.1 and Jaws 15.
The "Function Keys" on the unit have other operations assigned to them.
Jaws uses the "insert Key in conjunction with the "Function Keys" to
activate some Jaws features. The one that I use the most is "Insert
f7", which brings up the links list. When I hold down the "f7 key"
Jaws says "Windows k". If I hold down the "FN Key" and press
"f7",Jaws
says "f7".
Their is no way that I can hold down the "FN Key", the "insert Key",
and
the
"f7 Key at the same time. How Can I fix this? It's not just the "F7
key",
it's all of the "Function Keys".
Thank you in advance
