Hi Everyone,

I just got a new HP Envy laptop running Windows 8.  I am using the latest
build of JAWS 14.  The function keys on the laptop have lost their mind.  I
cannot use the JAWS key with any of the function keys to get the expected
function.  For example, caps lock plus F12 does not give me the time.  If I
press F1, without holding down anything, JAWS says Windows F1 and it acts as
though I were holding down the Windows key even though I am not.  If I press
F2 or F3, it says "MK wheel click".  If I press F4, it says "Windows P".
This problem only effects the function keys (F1 through F12).  If I use a
external USB keyboard, everything works normally.  So, is there a software
issue here or is the keyboard on my new laptop defective?

Thanks,

Scott Duck
