I haven't finished my draft email responding to Falco yet (where I checked my BIOS on my laptop for SpeedStep reasons). Long story short, in another area, it did have an option to emulate the (laptop) "Fn" key on an external USB keyboard via Scroll Lock key. I think it said this was only usually needed for "non-ACPI (DOS)". And of course there is another option (which was off by default!) to switch Function keys from multimedia keys (needs Fn+ modifier for normal action) to normal. Just FYI (Dell Inspiron). ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ WatchGuard Dimension instantly turns raw network data into actionable security intelligence.
