Not a dumb question at all! Some keyboards don't support 6-key  entry. I'm 
not sure how you determine which can and which can't, but we had a  similar 
problem when our system moved from one school to another. We had a new  
monitor and keyboard and couldn't go 6-key. Once we swapped out the keyboards,  
it was fine.

Okay this is my first  post, be kind... (and I'm sorry if this is a dumb 
question, but I really am  confused)
What I would like to know is why won't my  laptop let me use 6 key entry? 
When I try to input information in Braille the  keys (SDF JKL) do not work as 
dots 1 through 6? When I find an  extra keyboard and plug it into my laptop 
I can use 6 key entry with it, not  my laptop.
