ASUS Eee 4G Notebook Logo
Anonymous Posted on Oct 18, 2010

I have an Asus Eee PC 1005PEB, my "Fn" F3, F4, F7, F8, F9, F10, F11, F12 do not respond, while the F buttons work well by themselves, they do not respond with the Fn key, is this software issues ???? Cheers Phanto

    As I mentioned in the first note, the keys work quite well by themselves as "F" keys, but not with the "Fn" pressed as well, also the notebook is less than 12 months old, not used in a dirty environment and looked after, don't think it would be dirty yet.

  • Anonymous Oct 21, 2010

    I replied back to others but nothing has worked yet, I triad to eplain that the "F" keys work fine by themselves, but only half of them work in conjunction with the "Fn" key. I have tryed downloading latest drivers & drivers & patches from ASUS, but nothing seems to fix the issue ???????????

  • Anonymous Oct 24, 2010

    I really am getting tired of repeating myself, the keys are not to tight or to loose, they are just fine & when used as a normal "F" key they do what they are supposed to do & without any excessive pushing or extra force. It is just that some of them do not work when they are pressed with the "Fn" key to perform extra functions, it is the between th link between the combination of the "F" key & the "Fn" keys, I have even tried ASUS, , they gave me a patch to install but that hasn't fixed it either.

  • Anonymous May 22, 2011

    I have found the problem. I had to activate the "Hotkey Service" in the Eee PC under programs, just double click on it, not much seems to happen but it fixes the issues, thanx everyone who offered help.

It does not sound like a software issue.Are the keys too hard to press or too loose?

The keyboardmay have a battery compartment sort of hidden on the underside. I think it takes 2 AA batteries. There's nothing in or on the box that explains what you gain by installing batteries Maybe your keyboard requires batteries for the Fn function? if you need further assistance you can send me a message

    Hi,

    The above keys do not do anything by default but can be mapped to something using Shortcuts,

    Go to System->Preferences->Keyboard Shortcuts. Next, click the Add button and add an item to programme

    Thank You

    Hi,



    If still the problem persists then uninstall the ACPI driver and instal it again.You can uninstall from Add/Remove program..



    You can download the driver from




    Calibri;mso-fareast-theme-font:minor-latin;color:black;mso-ansi-language:EN-US;
    mso-fareast-language:EN-US;mso-bidi-language:AR-SA">Enter under "Please
    Select the Product" -> Select "Eee Family" -> Select
    "Eee PC" -> Select Your Model -> Select OS
    mso-fareast-font-family:Calibri;mso-fareast-theme-font:minor-latin;color:black;
    mso-ansi-language:EN-US;mso-fareast-language:EN-US;mso-bidi-language:AR-SA">



    And then under "ATK", click the
    "+" to expand the menu and then click Global to download... (DLM=
    Download Manager, so click the Global without DLM unless you want to install
    DLM). Character verification will show up, type what you see and then all
    downloads should work unless the server is busy until you close the browser.

On my laptop Fn displays a certain number icons corresponding to Esc, F1, F2,F3,F4,F5,F6,F7,F8, F9 with F8 activating and deactivating the Wireless. F10 toggles the overlaid keyboard, F11 allows one to use the overlaid keyboard
There are no icons for F10, F11, and F12.
After the icon for F9, there is one for TAB, another for Space, and a last one.
If you click the last icon you open a second set (second page) where there are other icons that control other features. There is one to turn ON and OFF the BlueTooth Adapter.
