Hi,

open windows explorer.

tgo to tools
arrow down to folder options.

press enter.

shift tab to general, then arrow right to view.
tab to advanced settings, files and folders.

press the end key to go to the bottom of the list.

Select the typed item in the view, should be selected.  The option that is 
selected in your case is automatically type in to the search box.

Sorry this is sketchy.

speaking of laptops and window-eyes, guys, ladies, :)
I have an issue where instead of first letter navigation in windows 7 and 
windows explorer, the immediate thing that happens is that I go to the "search" 
pane when I tap any letter while navigating the list of files displayed.
How can I change it to just "going" to the first occurrence of the first-letter 
in the list as it does on all my other computers.
