Oh dear, I hate to hear that! So, Gene have you come up with a solution? In other words, how are you dealing with the problems? FYI: I have tried using the laptop configuration, and made sure all settings are appropriate. Unfortunately there is no improvement, so I'll just have to get used to the laptop configuration for a while. I need to learn how to navigate the screen with this set up. It is really frustrating that I can't read current characters, lines, etc. I will contact FS next week to see if they have any recommendations. Thanks everyone for trying to help.

My new vaio desktop keyboard doesn't respond correctly either. When I contacted SF support they said they were aware of the problem and were looking in to it.
