Anyone know how to turn spell check on an HP laptop?
My spelling is not so great! Haha, got this here new/used hp laptop and the spell check is turned off, how to turn it on? Bad spellers untie!
The laptop itself doesn't have a spell check feature. To know how to instruct you in turning on such a feature, I would need to know which program you are using (Word, Firefox, etc). Each of program has its own way of turning on the spell check feature.
Thanks RG! On this laptop, I am using old school Explorer! I noticed when I use Word spell check is already on, but still not working here on explorer. For instance, if I misspell the word uniite, it just rides, no underscore!
Not knowing the version of Explorer (IE7?), it's still hard to know what the solution would be, but try this link to download a third party spell checker for 7 and higher. http://download.cnet.com/ieSpell/3000-1 … 08550.html

How dependent are you on Spell Check?Seeing made up words and misspellings all over HubPages made me wonder how dependent most people are on spell check. I do just fine checking my own work and using a dictionary (although I know I'm not perfect). I also know there are those who type their work...

Anyone who uses Firefox have trouble copying and pasting inside a hub capsule?When I use Internet Explorer, I have no problems with the copying and pasting into the hubs capsule, but when I use Firefox, I do? Is it that Firefox is not compatible with the hub capsule?

Wondering where we stand with regard to a new accolade for having more than 5 EC hubs or even a way for people to see this special distinction publicly on our hubs. Right now, we are the only ones who can see it - on our account statistics. I'm tempted to opt out at this point. Is there anyone else...
