How to disable Fn keysSolved/Closed

Question

WELL,  I read through the forums and I see hold fn + scrl lock and fn+ num

what if you dont have any of those

Danielle · Accepted Answer

My laptop was stuck on FN (the green light wouldn't turn off), but I switched it back to normal by holding down Fn + F11 and then letting go of Fn.

If this doesn't work, try Fn+NumLock.

A last, give a chance to NumLock standalone.

FOR DELL MINI NETBOOKS that have function keys ( FN key) locked o stuck:

You need to press FN and the key that is next to your "space" key (between "space key" and "alt gr") simultaneously! (it's at the bottom of your keyboard, it has two little arrows on it).

It's a miracle! It works!!!!! I am spreading the word because I've been looking at websites fro the last three hours and no one had answers.

Your Function key will not be stuck anymore!!

start your netbook, when it shows Dell loading screen, press F12 (boot options). pick the bottom option (enter setup)
 then choose the second tab from the left with yr keyboard (Advanced).
 pick the option "function behavior" press enter. The choices are multimedia and function. From what I read, your fn behavior must be at multimedia. so pick the other one. and choose exit tab, save changes and exit.
 thats all..

You don't have to repeat this step everytime you start your netbook, because its fixed..
Hope it'll help.
