I am sorry but there are no pause break substitute keys for the N4010.

Most if not all laptops don't have that key nowadays. My 1 year old 1764 doesn't have it and it has a larger kb than most. The only thing I would use it for was the shortcut Windows Key+Pause/break for accessing System.

Found a solution for this problem on another forum: http://answers.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/forum/windows_vista-hardware/help-me-install-a-pausebreak-key-on-dell-keyboard/cfc97689-0404-4b1a-b571-c6865e011122

This solution involves remapping another key on your keyboard to Pause/Break.  Seems like everyone is using the Right Alt key, not sure why Dell doesn't just make the Right Alt into a Pause/Break key and save us all the hassle :emotion-5:
