Hi, On some laptops there is a function key that alters the layout of the keyboard, which makes the different letters launch certain programs. I believe there is an option somewhere to change the function of the f keys, I believe you have to press a keystroke to change it, but i may be wrong on both counts. I had a problem similar to this last year but I can't remember how I fixed it. ----- Original Message ----- From: "mark bishop" <mrbishop@xxxxxxxxxxxx> To: <gametalk@xxxxxxxxxxxxx> Sent: Tuesday, September 14, 2010 10:26 AM Subject: [GameTalk] Re: problem playing pipe 2 > Hi > thanks for the advice.
