• I can't turn on my wireless (wifi) on my laptop, even when I tried to press the function key and F8

  I can't turn on my wireless (wifi) on my laptop, even when I tried to press the function key and F8. I have a toshiba laptop, and there is no switch on the side of my computer what is expected? Help someone?

  Hello

  My older Toshiba has a power switch WiFi.

  My new Toshiba has a WiFi switch above the F keys, although I do not know which varies
  by model. So check with Toshiba support, their documentation online and drivers, and
  ask in their forums where there will be others with the same model.

• 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:

• Re: How to change its use of the function keys?

  The function keys on my laptop P870 are keys to double action. You must press the FN key at the same time as the key function F1, F2. In particular, I use the F2 key a lot but have to use 2 hands (unless you have extremely long fingers) to operate the function keys driving me crazy.

  Any suggestions?

  If you use open Office assist Win8 > system settings > keyboard and function keys mode change.
  Change of cell function special mode reboot and test how it works.

• How to turn off the function keys? G62-346NR

  Hey all, I just signed up to please bare with me if I posted this in the wrong section, thank you!

  Anyway, I got want to disable my function keys upper (F1-12) that I'm a player and it requires that the function keys, but it doesn't seem to work in the game, so he just activates the function of the selected key. Then, I looked everywhere and I can't find the manual for this laptop, so I wondering if anyone of you guys/girls know how to disable the function.

  Thank you!

  In the BIOS there is a configuration tab. Inside, there is an option to toggle the mode of action of Fn keys. Maybe it's interfering with your game mode. Try disabling it to see if it helps. If yours has an InsydeH2O BIOS then it should substantially the same as this picture.

• XPS 13 9343 change the function keys

  I would like to change/disable the function keys on my XPS 13.  All searches on Google I've seen indicate that you can do this via a setting in the BIOS, but the BIOS EFI in my laptop has no entry to change the function keys.  Is there another way?

  OK, finally figured this out... post here so I hope that it helps someone else.

  All my research on this indicated that I had to change a setting in BIOS under the section 'System Configuration '.  Obviously this option asked, at least on the A07 BIOS on my XPS 13 9343.  The option that you need to change is now 'Behaviour of PUBLICATION'.  Select "Options of the FN lock" and make sure that "FN lock is verified (it should be... is the default) then be sure to Lock Mode Enable/secondary is selected.»  It is he who turns off the "multimedia" keys  Enjoy.  :)

• Qosmio G20 - how to enable the function keys

  Can someone tell me how to activate the function keys? I seem to be entirely invalid.
  Thank you
  Mike

  Hello

  In my opinion one of the important gift of drivers or utilities work and, therefore, you cannot use the FN keys.

  If your have installed XP on your test of the G20 to refresh the Toshiba common Modules.
  It is an essential tool that controls the FN keys.

  The common Modules can be downloaded from the page of European driver of Toshiba.
