Got a MS Office Keyboard - How the hell do you get the Function Keys to work like on a std keyboard?

[Shagga]

This is annoyling the hell outta me.

I don't want F2 to open up Internet Explorer, but do what it used to do, i.e, edit a cell in Excel.......
I don't want F3 to open the task pane, but do what it used to do, i.e. "Find Next".......

I could go on and on.....any1 else found a way around this?

Cheers,

Shagz

There is a F button on the upper right hand side of the keyboard. When you press it a light will a green LED below it and now your Function keys operate normaly. I have the same exact keyboard and I have to press that button everytime I restart the PC to get the Function buttons to work properly.

There are other little funky things about the keyboard that you have to key used to.. like sometimes I loose my Shift button until I do something.. I have to read the manual on it again. It's little things like that that keep it from being a great keyboard. I do like my scroll wheel on the side though.
