Hello, What has happened is that somehow you have hit a key that has disabled all of your function keys. I have done this before but unfortunatly I can't remember what to hit to fix it. If I am not mistaken, it is the key directly next to the f12 function key and I think if you just press that, it will fix your problem. Hope this helps, Brian ----- Original Message ----- From: Dave Hillebrandt To: ddots-l@xxxxxxxxxxxxx Sent: Monday, March 14, 2011 7:11 PM Subject: [ddots-l] keyboard for pc acting weird Hi All, I have obviously hit a key or series of keys on my computer keyboard that have caused it to not work correctly. Someone has helped me with this before on list so hoping they are around as had not been able to locate that earlier message. Now, my system will not let me use insert F12 to check time or insert F11 for sys tray.... Also, when I close a file or program with alt F4, I still have to press exit under the file column in order to close it out. Does anyone know offhand what button might set this thing back to normal? It is a multimedia keyboard that I received with full computer system from dancingdots. Know that someone else has experienced this and any suggestions are appreciated. Sincerely, Dave
