Hi Everyone I wonder if perhaps someone could help me with an issue I am having with the alt key. A few weeks ago I upgraded from JAWS 8.0 to JAWS 8.0.2173. After I installed the update I started having problems with the alt key. The first thing I did was to ask for a new keyboard for my PC as I thought that was perhaps the problem. The new keyboard arrived but the same thing is still happening. Basically, sometimes when I press the alt key it doesn't always work. For example if I am using alt tab to cycle through programmes and I am in a Word document JAWS says alt tab but on the screen the curser moves to the next tab position in the document. It also doesn't work when I'm trying to get to the toolbars. It doesn't happen every time the alt is pressed but it does happen on a regular basis. This is definitely not a keyboard problem as I am now using a brand new keyboard. Has anyone else come across this problem and if so any ideas on how to sort it out? It is a bit frustrating and very strange. Regards.
