I have a windows 7 and Vista and I use a laptop Inspiron duo. The F1-F12 keys are different because when you press F1, the battery window pops up telling you how much power is left in the battery and when you press F2, it turns on and off the wireless. When you press f3, it enables or disables the mouse and so on. But I have downloaded some computer games and sometimes it's impossible to play them when they require you to use any F keys and they are impossible or harder to use because they do nothing but disable the mouse or the wireless or show the battery window or turns on and off the volume or turns it up and down. Is there anyway I can turn these off so I can use the F keys than having that other stuff happen?


I tried to figure it out and at least I saw I could turn off the touch screen so I can touch my screen now without my finger acting like a mouse and having it click on something when I touch it.

Thanks, that worked well. Now my F1-F12 keys are now normal keys than shortcuts.
