Ah150sa HP Envy: keys HP Envy F

I'd rather have the default F keys and use "Fn" for the special functions rather than the other way around, as is the default with the laptop I have.

If someone knows if it is possible to change them?

  • HP Envy 17: Reverse the function keys

    Hey guys,.

    My laptop is a very good laptop, with a good graphics card nvidia an i7 cpu and even 16 GB of ram. Even with a 17 inch screen full HD 1920 * 1080, making incredible games! Even GTA V for Pc works quite well on this laptop powerful.

    All of these things are an amazing gaming PC, however, it has a match no one back which makes it almost impossible to play a game with good fluidity.

    Present a defect of fatal game is actually the keyboard, but to be more precise, it is the function keys. The HP Envy 17 has two F1 - F12 and INSERT key. However, these are the secondary keys. Primary keys are keys system that changes the brightness or volume. That means if I want to use F2 in a game, I have to hold the function key, and then press F2.

    This seems minor, but when you play, it can be annoying to have to hold down a function key just to use one of the F keys.

    Dies, does anyone know how to get this fixed and reverse the trend, in this way if I want to cut my cell phone that I have to press the function, then the F6 key. I hope that people know what I mean and please if you know of a fix would be great if you could post it below.

    Thank you
    Connor Burnett.

    Hello

    Yes, I used the F1 - F12 keys on a daily basis for the last 35 years or so, but fortunately I always use external keyboards using laptops (on or off a docking station). You may not share, but disable. Please use the following article:

    Hello

    Try the following.

    Download Realtek HD Audio Installer on the link below and save it in your downloads folder.

    http://ftp.HP.com/pub/SoftPaq/sp74501-75000/sp74867.exe

    When finished, press and hold the Windows key and press R

    In the run window, type devmgmt.msc and press to enter.

    In Device Manager, expand sound, video and game controllers.  Right click on the Realtek device and select uninstall - also, you should get a command prompt to delete the current driver, check the box allow this and then proceed to uninstall.

    When you are finished, download and reinstall the Chipset driver at the following link.

    http://ftp.HP.com/pub/SoftPaq/sp72001-72500/sp72105.exe

    When the reinstallation of Chipset is finished, stop the laptop.

    Disconnect the power adapter and then hold button power supply for 30 seconds, then release.

    Plug the power adapter.

    Robinet tap away at the key esc that you start the computer to launch the Start Menu, and then select f10 to open the bios menu.  Press f9 to load the default values (sometimes it is f5, but the menu below indicates the correct key), use the arrow keys to select 'Yes' and press ENTER.  Press f10 to save the setting and still use the arrow keys to select 'Yes' and press on enter.

    When windows has reloaded, open your download folder, right click on the installer of Realtek and select "Run as Administrator" to launch the installation.  Once this done, reboot the laptop and let windows load completely for a few minutes before checking.

    How can I give this key the correct function?

    This key is located at the bottom of my keyboard between alt gr and the arrow to the left.

    I understand that the Ctrl key is used, however, you are not key,

    It seems that the key is stuck or used by pressing the other keys.

    If you have verified that the keyboard and keys are physically stuck,
    Please try the steps below:

    (1) go to the control panel.
    2) go to "regional and language option.
    (3) go to the "language"tab.
    4) click details.
    (5) select the default input than English (United States) language we
    (6) services installed in keyboard select in the United States, click on apply

    Restart the computer and which should solve the problem.

    This could also be a problem with the sticky keys, so please turn it off using the procedure below:

    Disable the sticky or filter keys

    If you have not clicked on the link "Go to the Ease of Access Center", you can simply navigate in the Panel to the ease of access Center and find the link to "Make the keyboard easier to use".

    Once you're there, you want to make sure that the boxes for "Turn on sticky keys" or "Turn on filter keys" are turned off - which simply means that the feature is not active at the moment but does not mean that the annoying popup will disappear.

    To do this, you will need to click on "Set up FilterKeys" or "Set up sticky keys" (or both).

    Problem:

    I just want to know how I can change the operation of the function keys without having to go into the BIOS, because I don't know the administrative BIOS password. Currently, they work as multimedia keys by default, and if I want to use the function keys, I hit 'fn' every time just to use a function key. Is there a way to make the function keys worked mainly as function keys without having to press "fn" all the time?

  • HP ENVY m6 1158ca: Windows 8 Pro Setup own activation fails 0xC004C003 blocked by OEM product key

    My hard drive died on my HP ENVY m6 1158ca.  I replaced and ran 6 discs recovery I created for my daughter and

    After the last completed album, I hit continue to do construction and each time after several reboots (ready devices... Prepares... ... Software administrator is installed) it would get the BSOD - 0xc000000f - a required device is not connected or not available.  SO I format the disk of 1 TB and do Factory reset again, and it still fails in the same way.

    After failing on several occasions, I've used a Windows DVD Pro 8 for another HP laptop and Windows 8 coming!

    However, the activation of Windows 8 needs a key I guess that the BIOS it will not work.

    Call Microsoft by using the "activate Windows by phone" gave rise to the statement "you must call OEM.

    to get a key and then call us back and then we can help you"

    The HP ENVY is out of warranty, who do I contact to get this key on the BIOS?  or the BIOS button does not work

    because the Windows 8 Pro does not correspond to something?  The laptop came originally with Windows 8.

    Thanks in advance for any help,

    Hi @ml88,

    Welcome to the HP Forums! To help you get the most out of the Forums of HP, I would like to draw your attention to the Guide of the Forums HP first time here? Learn how to publish and more.

    The product key that is embedded in the BIOS may not work with the version of Windows 8 Pro.

    Here is a document HP-HP System Recovery troubleshooting (Windows 8) computers you can review. It can help restore the system from the recovery disks.

    If you need to get the recovery media:

  • HP ENVY 15 Notebook PC: HP Envy 15 action keys works do not (F9, F10 and F11)

    My laptop has been working fine since purchase, but last week, I noticed that action F10 F10 & F9 keys (jump, play/pause, skip) did not work for their function. Before last week I could just press the key to activate, I read other posts of this forum and the answers did not work pressing fn + alt + (key action), either by pressing fn + key action. To make this work I need to access the bios screen and change the default values, but it only works when the laptop is on. If I turn the laptop, turn again he resorts right back to does not. Action all other keys work e.g. keyboard backlight, volume, brightness, etc.

    Any solutions would be welcome.

    Thank you.

  • Control keys works do not, Win8 to Win7 downgrade. HP envy j011dx

    I have a HP Envy j011dx provided with Edition (64b9t) to the home page of Windows 8. I put in an SSD and improved RAM and installed Win 7 Pro(64bit). Everything is working great except control keys do not work.  When I hit the left ctrl key, I get [9 - and CTRL right, I get, l;]
    I have searched and tried a few different drivers looked at messages on the demotion to 7 and have not seen anything on this issue. I ran all the updates of windows and tried several different drivers. I put the old HD with W8, and it works if it is not a hardware problem. I looked at the origin of this post before doing the downgrade and it gave me the confidence to move forward with implementing Win7 on. I have until Friday to take this back to the store if I can't make it work. Any help would be appreciated. I also checked the region/language settings.

    I discovered what it was! Hallelujah! Good so I uninstalled and reinstalled Win7 Pro like 8 times. The driver IDT High - Definition (HD) is that he was causing.

    Finally, I noticed that when I hit the left CTRL mute volume was turn. Then when I hit the button Mute ctrl will work correctly. Mute on this subject would not work. Mute off it would work. I unsintalld the driver and re-installed several times to ensure that it is definitley the origin of the problem. Keys mute and volume were workign regardless if the driver has been installed. I was making reference to article http://h30434.www3.hp.com/t5/Notebook-Operating-Systems-and-Software/Downgrade-HP-ENVY-15-j011dx-to-windows-7-need-help-finding/td-p/3768928 to get the rest of the drivers. WEIRD question but it is the IDT Audio, 1.0.6491.0 Version 6.10.6491 Rev: A SoftPaqNumber: SP4958 that was originally there. It's SP4958.exe. Whooo! It was a guy. I'm so happy that I found it. I like really a few Windows 7. Not looking navigation on Windows 8 and 8.1 at all!
