Fn+Del Not Working in Windows XP SP2

I recently purchased a MacBook (2.2 GHz, 120 GB HD, 1 GB RAM, etc.) and decided to install Windows XP SP2 via Boot Camp. I followed all the instructions and it looks like Windows XP installed succesfully. However, I'm now experiencing a small problem. The Boot Camp help and instructions state that Fn+Del will function as the Windows delete key, but this doesn't seem to work. Anyone have any advice on how to fix this, or is something wrong with the Keyboard drivers that has to be fixed by Apple?
- Marc

Myself and others have had the same problem. The other thing that doesn't work is PrintScreen (fn + F11). I have the exact same MacBook as you. I created a thread about this same problem in this forum back in November, and there was no "official" fix. But now I use AutoHotKey (autohotkey.com), and you can create any keyboard shortcut on your own. Instead of Fn + delete, I created a shortcut for command + delete to do a Windows Delete. I also made shortcuts for PrintScreen, Page Up, Page Down, etc.

  • CRTL+ALT+DEL not working with Windows 7

    Hi,
    I just updated to 10.3.3 but found that CTRL+ALT+DEL still not working with
    Windows 7 in remote management session.
    I saw that I can activate UAC but I don't want to do this.
    Another solution to resolve this ?
    Thanks.

    If I activate this, will the user receive a popup when deploying some apps
    (bundles) ?

  • Wireless not working on windows xp sp2

    Hey guys, I just installed windows xp sp2 on my mac, followed all the steps, installed all mac drivers... but i can't connect to my home network... I already rebooted my router, checked the filtering, everything is ok.
    My network is available but when i try to connect it says that is not in range, but the signal is full.
    Please help me, i really need to fix this
    Thanks

    Are you using WPA2 for Wireless Security ?
    If so, then you need a patch from Microsoft to enable WPA2 with XP SP2, which can be found on Microsofts Download site.
    The SP3 for XP has that patch incorporated.

  • Bluetooth software not working in Windows XP SP2

    Not sure why but when I install the latest MacBook Pro drivers Bluetooth is not installing.
    I can't see it in the Control Panel but the Device Manager has it listed as Working Properly.
    No where do I see where I can setup Bluetooth devices

    If you'll check out the Boot Camp Faq's, you will find this is one of several items not yet supported.

  • APPLE mouse & keyboard not working with Windows (Bootcamp)

    I installed Leopard and Windows XP on my Mac Pro. The installation went very smoothly. Only problem I have is that my Apple wireless keyboard and mouse do not work on Windows (frozen) although they work fine on Leopard. I tried a Logitech wireless trackball and it works fine on both Windows and Leopard. Any suggestion?

    Thanks. I upgraded from Tiger and downloaded Bootcamp from Leopard Installation disc ( I did not have a beta version ). I then installed Windows XP SP2 ( brand new, just bought for that purpose ). Wonder if Mac wireless keyboard and mouse are compatible with Window. Everything else work beyond my expectation.

  • Zen Micro Photo not working with new XP SP2 install

    Okay so my Zen Micro Photo stopped being recognised on my computer about ten months ago when I upgraded to WMP (for BBC iPlayer - it's compulsory to have it). Anyway I li'ved with this and have now got thoroughly sick of the same songs and nothing new so I have done a fresh install (on a brand new hard dri've) of Windows XP SP2 WMP9 with the sole intention of using this install/hard dri've?for the player. I used the original installation disk and it prompted me to upgrade to WMP0 as I installed everything. There were no errors during the install and I rebooted when prompted to.
    When I attach the player it is recognised by the machine (task bar icon and correctly labelled in System > Hardware > Device Manager which reports it to be?working okay) but the Creative media software says "player not attached" when it is. It is not visible on My Computer as a dri've so I STILL have no access to the player. Player screen reports "docked" with a logo and is flashes a charging icon. Driver v5.2.0.0. The player plays fine but hasn't had new music on in almost a year
    There is nothing else on the XP install (IE6 and everything - argh!) I did the registry permission tweak thing mentioned?here:?http://support.creative.com/kb/showa....aspx?sid=9287?but it didn't do anything.
    Any help greatfully received!

    Run this code to reproduce the issue.Which issue?
    It looks like inheritance is broken in the component hierarchy for JFrame in Windows 7 JDK 1.6.0_23-b05. The only thing remotely related to inheritance in your code snippet is the WindowListener, which does little. See camickr's advice about built-in exit management.
    EDIT - using the post title as a clue, I realize you may be talking about the component hierarchy, and whether the contentPane's background is visible through the upper layers. Instead of guessing, I'd prefer you describe your "issue" accurately (observed vs expected behavior).

  • ITunes 12.1.1 does NOT work with Windows - Fix??

    Hi everyone,
    I had issue after issue with the latest iTunes update (12.1.1) not working on my windows 7. It simply would not lunch when clicking on the shortcut to open.
    After a fair bit of searching I found this alternative version which seemed to do the trick and now it works:
    iTunes 12.1.1.4 for Windows (64-bit - for older video cards) - iTunes64Setup.exe(2015-02-18)

    The "for older video cards" installer - which, like most prior "64 bit" versions of iTunes, is actually a 32 bit application with a 64 bit installer - may be a useful fallback if the full 64 bit version does not install or run correctly.  Although 12.1.1.4 is a major improvement over 12.1.0.71, there are clearly still some lurking incompatibilities with some 64 bit Windows systems/components.  It is, however, a little misleading to say that "iTunes 12.1.1 does NOT work with Windows" - in many cases it works fine without switching to the alternative version.  I have the full 64-bit version of 12.1.1.4 running on three systems - two Windows 7 and one Windows 8.1 - no issues with either installation or operation on any of them.

    Getting the following error message:
    Home sharing could not be activated because this computer is not authorized for the account "iTunes account." Please authorize this computer and try again.
    This is a bug since my computer is authorized in iTunes and there is only 2 computer authorized for my iTunes account, so I have 3 more left till I should get this message.

    <edited by host>

    I am using Windows 7 x64.
    I am running iTunes 9.0.2.25
    I am running Mcafee.
    I can see and play music from the iTunes installation on my Windows 7 machine, but I CANNOT access the library to copy songs from this computer to other computers on my network.
    YES, I have enabled "Home Sharing" using my iTunes account. NO, I have not authorized more than 5 computers on this account.
    I believe this to be a Windows 7 related issue, as Home Sharing worked as advertised when I was using Vista (before I upgraded to Windows 7).
    I CAN set up Home Sharing on two other (host) computers in my home network and it works. These computers are XP and a MacBook Pro. I CANNOT access my Windows 7 machine x64 to COPY music from one autorized library to another. Please help!!!
    P.S. - I have attempted to get this to work by turning OFF my McAfee firewall. Windows firewall is disabled.

  • MFA not working on Windows Server 2012 R2

    Been using MFA since PF days.  Deployed it successfully many times but for some reason it's not working with Windows Auth, Terminal Services on a Win 2012 R2 DataCenter box?  The machine was successfully added to my domain PhoneFactor group, I
    can see and add the machine on the master MFA.  Services are running but when I remote in I go right through without MFA stopping me?  Any ideas?
    TIA

    6.3.0 has just been released and 2012 R2 is *still* not supported. What the hell?!?
    "Version 6.3.0 of the Azure Multi-Factor Authentication Server adds the
      following additional functionality:
    * Added one-way SMS functionality for AD FS, RADIUS and User Portal
    * Added .csv file import for OATH tokens
    * Added support to parse phone numbers in E.164 format during import
      From the directory
    * Fixed problem preventing slave servers from performing MFA if the
      master server was unavailable. This problem was found to exist in
      all 6.2.x builds. All customers running 6.2.x should upgrade to 6.3.
    * Fixed directory sync issue for recursive security groups
    * Added additional logging to AD FS adapter
    * Other minor bug fixes and security improvements
    Known Issues:
    * Windows Authentication for Terminal Services is still not supported for
      Windows Server 2012 R2"
    So they added a whole stack of other functionality, but still didn't get around to taking a look at this bug. I'm stunned. Is there any sort of timeline on fixing this, or is 2012 R2 just going to remain unsupported forever?

  • HP Laserjet P1006 is not working on Windows 7 (64-bit).

    I lost my original CD-Driver and I tried to download the CD-Driver on HP website but it doesn't work when I click printing.  It seems that my HP Laserjet P1006 is not working on Windows 7 (64-bit).
    Can anyone give me a link that works for installing driver for HP Laserjet P1006 for Windows 7 (64-bit)?  
    Thanks for helping!

    Hi @achieverone ,
    I can help you with finding the drivers for the Laserjet P1006.
    Just to clarify, you were able to install the printer software, but it just isn't printing correct?
    Here are the two drivers available for Windows 7 64 bit.
    HP LaserJet P1000-P1500 Hostbased Plug and Play Basic Driver.
    HP LaserJet P1005/P1006/P1500 Printer Series Full Feature Software and Driver.
    Try and print a hardware self test on the printer to find out if it is a hardware or software issue.
    Open and close the lid five times quickly. It should print off a page with black lines on it.
    Download and run the Print and Scan Doctor. It will diagnose the issue and might automatically resolve it. Find and fix common printer problems using HP diagnostic tools for Windows?
    What were the results when you ran the Print and Scan Doctor? (did it print or scan, any error messages)
    If you need further assistance, just let me know.
    Have a great day!
