Paul, I don't know why your keys are not working but, in order to shut down your computer, you should be able to use the keystroke Control+Escape to simulate the same thing as a single press of the Windows key i.e. this should bring up the Start Menu. Hope this helps in the shut down at least.

Secondly, regarding my windows keys not working, these appear to be the only keys not functioning correctly and if I don't sort it out by the end of the day, I may have to leave my PC on until I can get it sorted. Hope you can help on either or both points. Thanks Paul. ----- Original Message ----- From: "Tiddy Ogg" <oggy@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx> To: <jaws-uk@xxxxxxxxxxxxx> Sent: Tuesday, May 27, 2008 1:43 PM Subject: [jaws-uk] Re: windows keys won't work : Does restarting Jaws not work? : I have a program which once run makes Jaws think the windows keys are : pressed all the time, and this same effect occurs at other annoying : moments.
