I've been told by HP reps that it also can be found after pressing control alt and delete together. I hope that helps. If you have a pair of eyes handy you could try that or call when they're available and I'm sure that HP tech support could walk you through it. they do have a special accessibility department. Its number is: 877-656-7058 I hope that helps.

Other makes sometimes have the setting available under keyboard settings in control panel or system but not HP sorry to say. I wish I had better news but there you have it.

I tried the function key and the f10 for the applications but still nothing happened, in fact nothing is happening. I want to change the way the function key works anyway because it is easier to use JAWS when the function key is for the volume and tracks and the f keys are for what they normally should be. Can anyone give pointers as to why I can't get anything to happen with the f keys? Thanks for any help.
