Hello there
You can set up your lap top to act like a desk top or a lap top configuration. I have my toshiba lap top set up as a desk top so my num pad is either a number pad calculator with the num lock on or a navigation display with the num lockoff
This means that you use the lap top keys like a regular keyboard.
You also have the option to attach the keyboard via the USB to your lap top and use the regular keyboard you are used to.
Your choice
Hope this helps
Maybe we can discuss if needed early next week!

Subject: [JAWS-Users] would like instructions for how to use Jaws on a laptop

I do use a regular keyboard with my laptop, since I'm used to that layout and of course the function keys and insert key are easy to find and use with Jaws. But should I ever really need to--which I hope will not be often--, is there a tutorial or list of hot keys and where they might be located on a laptop? For instance, I have heard you can't use the insert key and I'm not really sure where it is anyway. Not really even sure where control keys or start menu keys, etc. are, and by luck I found the arrow keys. But I would like to learn my way around a laptop and learn what keys would be Jaws specific.

Thanks for any help.

Joanne
