Hi Paul,
Capslock+pgup does indeed announce screen review as you suggest so thanks to
you I can now use the HP laptop. Many thanks
Aedan.

The only other settings-related issue to consider is whether your
capslock key on the HP is set as an NVDA key - I would imagine that you
do have this set. Before trying anything else, go into input help mode
by pressing NVDA plus number 1 on the long number row and then press
capslock plus page up. NVDA should announce that this switches to the
next review mode. If not, and if your keyboard configuration is
definitely for laptop, then you have a problem!
