thanks so much!!! it was so annoying having to type holding fn key. tried to disable it in the bios but there was no option there. i'm so happy! thank you!!!!!
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.
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.
