Pavilion 15: Problem of function keys.

Hello

I have a little problem with my function keys. Apparently, I can use them without pressing the "Fn" key on my keyboard. It's really annoying because I have other uses for these keys F1 - F12 and modification of custody whenever I try to use their brightness, sound, etc.

Is there a way to disable this, so I can use the function with the function key options?

Kind regards

Hello

You should be able to change the default behavior as follows.

Shut down the laptop.  Tap away at the esc you key start Notepad to open the Start Menu.  Select the Bios ( f10 ) option, and then make the relevant changes contained in the document on the following link.

  • Satellite C850 - 1-5 - problem with function keys

    Good evening

    Since a few days, I noticed on my laptop that I could not do more as before, which is the volume with the button located at the top of the keyboard (F9 - F10) or the brightness. On the square, it's functions F1, F2, F3 etc. who went. I have already tried using parameters and setting key 'special functions' systems, but that worked again, then in "mode F1 - F12", still nothing and I challenged 'special functions', but again without success.

    How to solve this problem, please?

    Can you please tell us what model of laptop do you have?

  • Satellite A135-S4527 - drivers needed & function keys do not work

    Hello

    I have a Satellite A135-S4527. But when I got this computer it was without a recovery disk / disk to reinstall Vista and the Vista operating system that was installed was a bloated mess - it has been widely used by a person of lesser intelligence. In any case, I decided to get out the hard drive and put it in my SSD with Windows XP Professional SP3.

    That's when the problems started to flow. It turns out that Toshiba doesn't support Windows XP operating system - I checked the site and was surprised to see a total lack of support for Windows XP (even though Windows XP is the dominant OS and a fortiori when this laptop has been done).

    I managed to get the drivers installed, for everything except the modem. Easier to find drivers were Intel for Chipset / Motherboard and graphic processing of legacy unit. The thing is, I don't know if these are the official drivers and I'm completely lost on the drivers for the modem. Any idea where I can gain more - late and the biggest drivers of all my components?

    There are also some problems,
    -Brightness function keys do nothing
    -Laptop computer sometimes comes out no mode 'sleep'

    What can I do on the brightness keys? The monitor is sometimes a bit too bright to be comfortable to use. Yet, I'll have a chance to make those keys actually do something.

    Any help appreciated.

    Hello

    To my knowledge, this must be a series of Toshiba laptops we.
    Therefore, I visited the Toshiba driver page us to check the availability of driver.
    And guess what? I found this, but unfortunately there is not a lot of drivers Win XP.

    There are Vista and Win 7 but not Win XP drivers.
    I guess that's all that's available for Win XP.
    So what to do?

    I think you should try to install the missing tools which are released for other series of laptop; for example, A105-Sxxxxxx
    Maybe you will get the driver works

    Let's hope. Otherwise, you will need to use the laptop without these functions

  • Pavilion 15-ab216nz: f1 - f12 function keys do not work

    Hello

    I shot this Pavilion laptop 15-ab216nz to win 10 to Win 7 64 bit.

    The function keys f1 - 12 do not work - what is missing?

    Thanks for the support

    The problem is resolved. Thanks for your reply.

    As the function keys have 2 different functions:

    (a) Act in accordance with the operating system (release e.g.F3, F5 reload, etc.)

    (b) Act as specific function of material (e.g. dim or bright the screen, increase or decrease the volume)

    (Usually one) is the default (without the combination with the 'fn' key) for b) to use the "fn" EHF.

    This computer works on the other hand, I discovered. There is no need to install the software.

    Kind regards

  • Function key problem

    Hello

    I use laptop Pavilion g6-2221TU.  OS Win 8

    The function keys are working directly for the activation keys. I read the standard document available on this site. I changed the setting in the BIOS. Disabled the relevant parameter. It did not work.

    Just for the double bond, I enabled and then disabled. In both cases, I don't have to press the "fn" key to increase or decrease the brightness, volume etc.

    Plese suggest the solution.

    concerning

    Pankaj

    A BIOS update is not dangerous as long as you allow it to run and do not power the laptop turned on or off during the race. Also, make sure that you keep the laptop plugged in. I would recommend updated, because it can solve your problem.

  • function keys on HP Pavilion

    Hello

    We just bought a HP Pavilion laptop to replace our old Toshiba one (although begins to regret now). One of the most annoying things on the new computer is that the function keys requires that you press the FN key in order to make them do what the function key for decades! That is to say in order to refresh a Web page, you need to press FN and F5. How can I disable this ridiculous? I read something on line on the use of "BIOS" even if I can't find where it is on the computer

    Any help is appreciated until I throw the thing out the window!

    Hi @MichaelMazz ,

    Thank you for visiting the Forums HP's Support and welcome. I looked in your question about your HP Pavilion Notebook 15-e070sl and the keys does not properly.  Select an on-screen keyboard layout using this document , as this could be the problem.

    If this is not enough, try this document on troubleshooting the keyboard. You can watch the laptop marked key stuck section.

    Here is a link to uninstall the keyboard. Restart the computer after the uninstall, it must be reinstalled automatically.

    Have you tried to clean the key or use air to blow the key there could be debris in the key itself?

    I hope this helps.

    Thank you.

  • Pavilion Office H8 - 1130: after upgrade to WIndows 10, function key (F2) does not work, delete the folder

    After the upgrade to WIndows 10 the other day, I copied some 30 GB of videos and photos from my phone to a USB connected HDD.

    using Windows Explorer:

    -J' created a new folder

    -Use of function F2 key, I renamed the folder "New folder" to the 2015-16'

    -all good then I copied (low-pressure) the files in this folder

    Once done, I decided to rename the folder in different name

    -J' pressed the function F2 key to rename it, but press ESC' to abandon it

    -the file has been renamed to "new folder".

    -J' then pressed F2 to rename it and the file disappeared!

    -J' checked the trash, not there

    There you go. How can I retrieve these prics

    It is, but I cut/move the files in the DCIM folder on my USB key.

    I found the culprit.  The 'function' key lock keyboard sound, he was in no hurry.  This Microsoft keyboard allowed this option to disabled and completely forgot it.

    I've tried and tested again and this is the reason.
