Keyboard Button Assignment

[Guest]

Archived from groups: microsoft.public.windowsxp.hardware (More info?)

I have a Dell 4500s Dimesion Desktop and am using a Dell
keyboard(model:SK-8100) There are 3 buttons at the top of the keyboard with
icons above each button. The icons are 1) envelope, 2) house,3) magnifying
glass. I push them and they don't work. I am assuming the envelope icon means
mail, House icon means Home/home page and I have no idea about the magnifying
glass icon. Please explain to me what these buttons are for and how I can use
them.

Thanks in advance,

CreeMan

Envelope - launch your mail program.
Home - launch your web browser
Mangnifying glass - search (probably your computer)

You need the drivers for your specific keyboard. Check Dell's support
site, or try Googling for them.

There are no stupid questions, but there are a LOT of inquisitive
idiots.
