Fn key stuck

[chrisscamp]

Thanks for the posts.... Holding down the Fn key and pressing Scroll Lock solved my problem!

Best regards,

thank you THANK YOU not-so sillydog! This has been driving me BANANAS for days now! I have an ACER ZF3 and when my cat decided to take a shortcut across the keyboard i thought i'd have to take the laptop in for repair. I depressed the Fn key and F11 (which is the NumLk key) together and it WORKED.
Thanks again,
L

thank you "mark.w.jones" for your

"I found that pressing F12 & the Num lock / Scroll lock key beside it toggles the FN lock on and off on my laptop.

Hope that's helpful as it was driving me nuts for a while"

thats been bugging me for ages. Had to set up an acout just to say thanks!!!

i have a gateway solo 955o with a stuck fn key, but it has no num lock key.

5 have a gateway s636 955/ w5th a st4c2 fn 2ey, b4t 5t has n6 n40 36c2 2ey. Get 5t, 363+ *retty 3eet h4h+


Edit: Found the answer in the gateway 9550 user manual. The key sequence to turn the Numeric Keypad off is Fn+Pad Lock.

for almost all laptops youll think the fn key u need to leave it press but some times all u need to do is push the num lk key again to activate or desactivate the numpad

this will work trust me , the fn key is just a shortcut , to the fn keys XD

Use Ctrl-Shift-NumLk - on an old Compaq Presario, this is what worked for me, the others did not. thanks again

I am so thrilled that I found the answer to my problem so quickly!!! A co-worker had it stuck and sent his laptop to me to figure out what was wrong. I am buried, so I am so thankful that I found this site and the correct answer!!

I have an Acer Aspire 4920 and found holding down Fn key at same time as F11 (NmLk) did the trick for me; based on a message on here. Really pleased! What madeunction Key Locked into Google with the function key locked (obviously) and it brought me to your site. Thanks a million guys.
