HP Beats Special Edition 23-n1
Microsoft Windows 8.1 (64-bit)

I want to revert function keys (disable fn key). Problem is, when i open the bios, i get a different screen compared to the answers here. I have File, Storage, Security, Power and Advance tabs. How can i access System Configuration > Action Keys Mode and disable/enable them?

Thanks.

Welcome to the HP Forums. I would be happy to help you with your HP Beats Special Edition 23-n100 All-in-One Desktop. I understand that you want to disable the fn key and you have already done some preliminary troubleshooting. 

 

Don't worry though as I have a few steps to determine the issue and find a solution as well,

  • Press the power button to turn on the computer.
  • Press the f10 key to open the BIOS setup window.
  • Press the right-arrow or left-arrow keys to navigate to the System Configuration option.
  • Press the up-arrow or down-arrow keys to navigate to the Action Keys Mode option, and then press the enter key to display the Enable / Disable menu.
  • Select the desired mode:
  • Press the f10 key to save the selection and restart the computer.

Click here to refer the document and perform troubleshooting steps mentioned above to fix this issue.

 

Let me know how it goes.

 

I hope it helps and if you feel I have answered your question and concerns,

Please mark this post as a solution accepted and Kudos would also be appreciated.

 

Cheers.

Thanks for the response.

As i said before, my BIOS doesn't have a system Configuration tab/option. Instead i have: File Storage Security Power Advance tabs/options. Looks something like this:
