    Hi all

    I recently did a reinstall on gf's 3830TG and since then the Fn key toggle's don't display anymore on screen. For example when I do Fn+up or down there is no volume bar appearing on the screen anymore although the volume did get changed, same for brightness, etc.

    Running Win 7 home premium and reinstalled all the onboard drivers suggested on support.acer.com under the drivers section for 3830TG.

    Is there something that I missing here?

    Thanks and Happy Friday.

    Mike

    Launch Manager is what you need to reinstall.

    +1. Launch manager. It's the only application that is absolutely necessary.
