My fn keys won't work on my samsung R530 notebook and was wondering if there is anything i can do to get them working again. thanks

SOURCE: FUNCTION KEY:(

try, right click on my computer icon>properties>hardware tab>device manager>, then look down the list to your keyboard, click + sign, right click on keyboard select uninstal and then reboot notebook and keyboard will self install. If still not working your drivers may be corrupt and will need to be downloaded from the Asus support website.

Hi, the FN key on the laptop is only used like FN+F2 for wireless for example, if you find the FN key and F1-F12 keys dont go work together, the only fix is replacing the keyboard but its quite expensive

Sounds like maybe you did not load all of the necessary device drivers when you upgraded. Go to the manufactures web site

http://www.samsung.com/us/support/download/supportDown.do?group=&group_cd=&type=mobilecomputing&type_cd=05010000&subtype=mininotebook&subtype_cd=05012500&model_nm=NP-NC10&dType=D&mType=&model_cd=&menu=download&prd_ia_cd=05012500&disp_nm=NC10-11GP&isEqualsY=

and download all of the drivers that are required for your specific laptop.

Go to Start, All Programs, Samsung, then Easy Display Manager Option. Make sure that the "Advanced Volume" is enabled. Somehow that also enables the other functions. I couldn't use my function key for anything but after I enabled advanced volume, the function key was working for brightness, sound, F4, etc.

You also have to make sure that the Magic Keyboard is on.

Hope this helps!
