According to the manual, the option is in the BIOS. Thanks for your help. -----Original Message----- From: jaws-users-list-boun...@jaws-users.com [mailto:jaws-users-list-boun...@jaws-users.com] On Behalf Of dgcnc Sent: 02 April 2012 19:31 To: jaws-users-list@jaws-users.com Subject: Re: [JAWS-Users] Packard-Bell Laptops No. No! This is easy in Windows 7. Open your menus with the Windows key and type "mobility center" without the quotes or enough to find it. Go through the settings and there is clearly a setting about function keys. Select the other option and it is all fixed. I cannot see the specific steps from where I am but if you need them, I'll be glad to write it out and e-mail again. Jaws will work perfect. I fought this for years till someone told me the same thing on this list and life is so much better.

Many new laptops are now coming with media keys installed in the function keys.As far as I know JFW will not work in the BIOS so you will need sighted help. hth, Ryan West -----Original Message----- From: Hicks Steven (CORNWALL IT SERVICES) Sent: Sunday, April 01, 2012 11:59 PM To: jaws-users-list@jaws-users.com Subject: [JAWS-Users] Packard-Bell Laptops Hi friends, Does anyone have a Packard-Bell laptop. For some reason, the function keys 1 through 10 don't seem to perform standard operations without holding down the FN key and I am wondering if there is a way to turn this feature off? Many thanks in anticipation for any help, Steve. -----Original Message----- From: jaws-users-list-boun...@jaws-users.com [mailto:jaws-users-list-boun...@jaws-users.com] On Behalf Of Flor Lynch Sent: 28 March 2012 19:07 To: jaws-users-list@jaws-users.com Subject: Re: [JAWS-Users] English Dictionaries with jaws have you looked at the free www.dictionary.com - that works well, and cites good sources.
