There are 2 solutions to this problem.
1.  Try bringing this issue to the manufacture of the keyboard.
2.  Buy a different brand.
I think 2 is the best solution.  What's so special about this keyboard? 
Whatever it is, I'm sure there are others that are just as special that 
doesn't present this issue you've encountered.

>> Good moarning Randy and fellower listers.

>> Unfortunately I don't have a solution for your Logitechkeyboard issue,

>>
>> 1. Focus system cursor to the JAWS application window by pressing Alt+tab

>> Windows System tray press insert+F11 and Type J until JAWS is announced, 
>> then press alt+R to get the context menu.
>> 3. Press alt+O for options.
>> 4. Press Enter on Basics, which is probably the first option.
>> 5. In this dialog box, type alt+L to get a list of keyboard layout 
>> options.
>> 6. Type L to select Laptop.
>> 7. Tab to OK button and hit Enter or simply hit Enter to make the change.
>>>From now on you can use the capslock key to perform JAWS functions. This
>> will enable you to do anything in JAWS you can do on the number key pad. 
>> Remember also that the Insert key at the top left end of the cluster of 6 
>> keys above the four middle arrow keys between the qwerty keyboard and the 
>> number pad will also enable you to perform JAWS functions, but I find the 
>> capslock key to be an extraordinarily efficient way to perform JAWS 
>> reading and navigation functions.
>>
>> Sorry I didn't have a solution for you on the logitec, but hopefully 
>> someone on the list will be able to help you with your specific issues.

>> best regards,
