Good morning Steve,
I haven't tried using the FN key in conjunction with the F8 key combination,
but here's what's going on. If I'm in an open email message that I'm reading
that someone sent me, and Hit the F8 key, it will say selection start. But
if I try composing an email message to someone and try too correct a mistake
that I've made, If I hit the F8 key by itself, it just sits there and
doesn't say anything afterI press it.

Just to be clear, are you saying that neither your F8 or pressing F8 with
the FN key works? It is a difficult scenario to imagine where F8 would work
normally
except not with Window-Eyes.
Best regards,
Steve Jacobson

Good evening all,
As all of you know after reading a few messages about the problem that
IG€™m having with my laptop computer , IG€™m still not able to use my
keyboards laptop delete key, nor am I able to use my F8 key too begin the
selection process. Perhaps IG€™m wrong too suggest this, but I think that
there
might be a conflict problem between the window eyes program, and keyboards
on HP laptops. I did have a discussion with a tek support person about this
issue. I first tried disabling the insert key layout, and then setting the
keyboard too laptop key layout, and had no success with any of these
suggestions. It
was suggested, that I try hooking up an external keyboard to the laptop,
and seeing if the two problems disappear. The thing here is, why should we
be
asked too do that when it means having to have to carry an extra peace of
hardware just to be able too use a delete key, when there is a delete key
that is
already on a persons laptop computer.. This is something I believe, that
needs to be looked into so that future problems like this donG€™t have too
happen
for those of us that use and want too use laptops. This is not meant too be
interpreted as a chritizism towards the developers and programmers of
windoweyes, but I think that this issue needs too be addressed.
