Yes, The tech at windoweyes and I, did do just what you suggested. We
switched from the desktop layout to the laptop key layout and saved the
settings. But when I tried performing the selection process in an open
email message and saw that the problem hadn't cleared up, I went back
too see if the laptop key settings that I had saved kept, it went back to
the desktop layout.

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.

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.
