It gets more interesting. A little background. I was working in Legacy, everything working as expected, including the Function Keys. I checked the home tab and saw the new version was available so I clicked to install it. It appeared to install normally and I went back to work and discovered the Function Key problem. While investigating this I found that my BIOS had been altered, changing my Function Keys from Function first to Multi-Media First. Simple fix, go into setup, change it back and good to go. The question is why and how did it get changed and why in the middle of a Legacy update? May never know the answer to that but I will monitor it closely. And the default 5 month gaps in problem reports had nothing to do with BIOS. That was all Legacy and also easily fixed. -- Gene Young Researching Young, Harer, Cox & Sallada With Legacy Family Tree http://myyoungs.atspace.com/index.htm --- This email is free from viruses and malware because avast!
