John, he shouldn’t have to go into BIOS. If you read the post previous to yours, you will see that he should be able to do it from the keyboard.


I did read the previous post and fully understood it. My post wasn't about whether you could access all the features from the keyboard, but as to what the "default" behavior for the function keys should be.

The BIOS setting is just to toggle the default behavior. You have access to either/or. It's just a matter of which feature requires pushing the Fn key while hitting a function key.

My wife uses dim/bright, volume up/down, etc more than function keys, so she leaves hers with the default behavior of the Function keys to do those things without having to concurrently press the Fn button on the lower left. I do the exact opposite, since I use the actual function keys more than the special features.

If there is a way to toggle the "default" behavior from the keyboard, please let me know (as the instructions I received with my laptop was to toggle it in the BIOS settings).
