Hi

Im rubbish at techy stuff, can you help me!!

I want to be able to use the symbols on my keypad eg: brightness up and down, volume etc

I turned sticky keys on but that just made weird noises when I pressed stuff randomly.

help !!!

sorry can`t help hiding, but had a similar sort of question i can`t use my pound sign as in money pound. its above my 3 but a lot of symbols are mixed up ie, my at sign is a speech mark. I just read that back and it doe not make much sense, but anyone who knows the answer will probably be able to work out what i mean.

lol...I knew what you meant,,.,.no idea how!!!

ok to the pound one struts you see onthe blue bar at the bottom with start menu well look all the way across that blue bar untill you see the letters: EN
if it is on USA then change it to the UK and it should let you use the £.You may have to go in settings on there and look through to set it up to UK if not may keep changing back.

I had that problem until I done that and now look ££££££££££ woohhhooo lol

Hope that help not sure how to help with your prob hiding as don't have all those funny keys lol sorry

booo hoooo!!

Sorry ferrets i don`t understand, i have a blue FN button but it does nothing when i press it, how do i see what setting its on, is it through the menu or something. I have not really used computers properly for a long while, just used them to sell stuff on amazon and ebay, and now in here

do you have it in different language? or is it in english cause I have mine on english and it comes up with EN.
Not sure if any where else you can change it, thats where I changed it where it said EN, let me see if can see anywhere else can do it.
