Hello, question regarding fn keys- while using laptop for surfing etc fn keys work correctly(not fullscreen mode), however when i m playing games and i am interested in changing volume(fullscreen mode)- nothing happens. How can i enable fn keys to work while gaming and so it would be possible to adjust volume?
There must be some kind of trick to enable fn keys while gaming, i do not think it is a bug?
Thanks in advance...

@Mrhelpneed92 Welcome to HP Community!
I understand that the fn keys not working.
Please perform the below steps and check.
Steps to drain the Static charge and loading default BIOS settings to resolve the issue
Step 01. Turn OFF the Notebook
Step 02. Un-plug the Power/AC Adapter and also remove the Battery too
Step 03. Press and Hold the Power Button of the Notebook for a full minute
Step 04. Now let's re-insert the battery back in and plug back the Power/AC Adapter
Step 05. Start the Notebook and keep tapping F10 Key during the startup to access the BIOS
Step 06. Once you get to the BIOS, Please press F5 Key to load setup defaults for the BIOS
Step 07. Now let's press Esc/Escape Key. Save Changes and Exit - Yes
Step 08. Now please wait till the Unit loads the Windows Operating system
Now check if the function keys are working normal if not we can try and re-install the Quick launch drivers for your Notebook.
