I understand that this is "HP designed" but it is crazy compared to the normal use in all applications, e.g. excel, word a.s.o.
I want to use the Fn key when I shall use a FUNCTION, (like increasing sound, brighthness controls a.s.o) NOT when I'm using normal Windows hotkeys. How can I change this to the opposite. Fn+Shift key don't work - I have seen some tips of that, but don't work on my installation.
Yes, I have donloaded and run the CASL setup ftp://ftp.hp.com/pub/caps-softpaq/cmit/softpaq/CASLSetup.exe
None of the tips so far seen works.
Why this "abnormal" way to design the keyboard functions? Never met before I bought this HP laptop. Please help.

SOLVED - I found the solution by googling and finding other in this forum with the same question.
I had to go to the BIOS setup - pressing F10 when starting.
Under "advanced" section I found the two opdions for Fn "on / off" and the other "special functions" "invented" by HP., also the possibility to swap CTRL and Fn - keys.
When removing the checkmarks, restarting, I have my system working as other "industrial standard" lap-tops from other producers.
