?I haven't laugh this hard since a long time ago. My computer have something 
like this. But thanks to my sister (I don't have a sighted wife yet, not even a 
sighted girlfriend yet ) I now where is the wireless button so if I don't have 
internet, I know where to look.

Hi,

Unfortunately the trend on the new laptop/notebook etc seems to be all kinds of 
handy buttons to control many, many things.

My HP Pavilion has 2 or 3 very dangerous keys just below the screen and you do 
not even have to actually touch the blamed things to cause them to work.

Mute and wireless are two of them.

Of course, HP did think of convenience because there is a little blue light 
which tells you that the wireless is on. (ROFLROFLROFL)

Keep that sighted wife around, they can be useful as well as ornamental.

Rob,

 

Exactly my problem, as well. Caused me no end of frustration until I decided to 
mark the button. Also there is a Fn Key + combination on my laptop that will do 
the same.

  Alan,

              I found that problem after I changed to a laptop. Found I was 
occasionally hitting the 'mute' button instead of the power button, or by just 
occasionally by getting disoriented on the keyboard. Have a sighted person show 
you where the 'mute' button is, and perhaps this can help you, as it did me.

  Hello all,

  On occasion my sound system is muted.  I then need to have a sighted person 
to go to my desktop task bar and turn my sound system back on.

   

  What commands do I need to perform this task by myself?

   

  Thanks,

   

  Alan
