    Disable FN keys so they work as normal F1-F12 keys


    Hello.

    I have the new Microsoft Bluetooth Desktop Keyboard and Mouse.


    I play games and need my F1-F12 keys.

    Currently I have to press FN then the F1-12 keys to get what I want. This can be a headache as playing a game is time sensetive.

    I trtied pressing FN key does not disable, there is no led on this keyboard.


    How the heck to I disable it.


    MY bios is Dell and has no Hot Keys enable or disable option.


    Here's link to keyboard and mouse from Microsoft.

    Microsoft Bluetooth® Desktop


    Anyone have a suggestion?

    Otherwise I'm sending this **** back!!!


    Thanks.

    :)

    How To Disable Fn key for F1-F12?

    Just press the Fn key... when the LED on the key is on, function keys work as F1...F12; when it is off, the keys work as media keys...

    when holding Fn key while pressing any function key, the key does the opposite to the action it would do without the Fn key pressed
