Changing keyboard settings

This section explains how you can make using the keyboard easier

Introduction

Many people have difficulty using the standard computer keyboard for a variety of reasons.Some people find they have held a key down too long and get a string of unwanted characters. Others accidentally press keys on the way to the key they want to press.

This is because the standard keyboard, as it is normally set up, is very sensitive. This can, however, be easily changed and you need never get unwanted keystrokes again by using keyboard options.

This section shows you how to tune the response of your keyboard to suit your needs. Please select one of the following links to find out more:
