Make the F keys (F1-F12, prnt scr, scroll lock, pause break) perform stupid functions (new email, new reply, new this, new that, forward, reverse, play/pause, my computer etc etc) instead of being the default f's (f5 refresh, etc etc)

So just turn it off...?

You can't...there is no fix for it. I hate pressing the fscking flock button to enable the default f functions.

Are you using XP? Cause I just turned it on once, and now it turns on every time I boot my computer. Never even have to think about it.

there is a resolution. JUST DON'T install the drivers.

that's what i've done for my Logitech Mouse / Keyboard set.

No logitech software is installed on my computer. Flock continues to be a bitch.

really?? i have the Logitech combo, and i'm using the default F-Keys.

Yep same here. You're doing something wrong Tetsuo.

that, my friend, is why I use a $7 keyboard that I picked up a computer show 5 years ago. No special buttons, no special functions, just straight, plain 104 key goodness.

Same here. I just use the cheapest keyboard I can find. They work great and I never have any stupid problems. I think the one I have now cost me $6.00.

wait wait wait...you're upset because you have to press 1 button, right? So like the computer turns on, you hit this 1 button and everything is fine?

Holy sh!t man, god forbid you ever stub your toe or lose a penny

EDIT: changed the 'G' to a 'g' in "god"

WORD!!!

 

[guyver01]

I don't know about F-LOCK but i do remember G-LOC

 

[0roo0roo]

i don't reboot enough to care that much. and i have an microsoft multimedia ergo keyboard ur not safe anywhere... its one button press..... its got nothing to do with drivers. its just that microsoft and logitech thought it would be funny to have the fkeys off by default. doesn't make much sense but ah what can u do

yeah I hate the thing I ussually remember to hit it but sometimes I do so everyonce in awhile I will be playing a game or something and I have to use the F keys stupid thing pulls me out of the game and opens "my pictures" or something... of course it has to be during some action and I die... pfft whatever.
