XP on MAC "Ctrl Alt Del" Function

[Mflanagan]

I didn’t have 2 many problems with the XP install on my MacBook Pro.
But there are 2 things that are driving me crazy.

1. Without an external mouse how do you Right Mouse click on items?
2. After joining the new XP machine to the domain you are required to hit Control Alt and Delete to enter the user ID and password. It works with an external Keyboard but what about if I just want to use the laptop. The Delete key on the MAC keyboard is equal to the Backspace button.

Anyone have any Ideas? :confused:

Check out the onmac Wiki. There is a "driver" for keyboards. Read the footnote for explanations. You can assign another key to be the "Del".

Both those Ideas worked Great
Thanks

For that mouse software is their a scroll lock on the MAC keyboard?

try the utility in this thread:

it enables some functions of the (Fn)-key. you could try to remap the scroll lock key somewhere as exlained in the thread. As I havn't tried the tool yet, you have to test.

give feed back please

i know that shift+f10 is the shortcut for right click in windows.. but thats a bit cumbersome i suppose

I would highly recommend everyone use this (http://forum.onmac.net/showthread.php?t=928) rather than remapkey and Apple Mouse. It's more complete and works much, much better. For instance, unlike "Apple Mouse" you don't have to first left click something to select it before right clicking it - the keyboard driver above Just Works.
