Unfortunately, this "feature" can also be hard-wired into the keyboard, 
independent of the BIOS, with no way to restore normal Fn operation.  I have 
some generic HP keyboards that work that way.

There is a BIOS setting that you MUST change so the Function Keys function as 
they used to;
why the manufacturers chose to change the default is strange.

Gary,

Look closely at your F keys.  Are they labeled with a dual function?  If so, 
check your keyboard.  There is probably a key that shifts the F keys into an 
alternate mode, sort of like having a CAPS lock on.  There should be key that 
will unshift the F keys out of doing windows functions and let them do normal 
function key stuff.

73,
Gary AL9A
