Another list member has given you an answer, but I wanted to echo his reply. I could not resolve this on my own with my level of knowledge, but my tech person did go and change a setting to make the default setting for all function keys the standard windows function keys. If I use the FN, I could get the results for the other function options. I do suggest you get a list of what these options are. I have accidently pressed the function key on my laptop and triggered unwanted results. It helps to reverse such results. Smile.

I have asked this question before and not gotten an answer, so I hope somebody can help me. People talk about getting computers and having the function keys do different things. One person said the function keys act right away, so that when you go to use our commands with them, they do other things. I think it was said that you have to either use a function key with the function keys on a laptop, or you have to go into the registry or the bios and change it so that the keys do what we want. Rather than have to do that, what question should I ask when buying the laptop so that I get one with function keys that act properly? I need to know, since I am going shopping for a replacement.
