    When you say shortcut buttons what do you mean? Are you talking about the buttons that are on the notebook chassis itself, (other than the wireless and bluetooth buttons)?

    If so then just open up acer launch manager and then change what each button is linked to. When you link the button you will have to link it to some executable file. For instance my email button(letter symbol) will launch msn messenger to allow me to send and email. The rest I have sent to either open windows update or to open a browser.

    Don't worry about asking questions that is what the forum is for :cool:

    Hope I answered your question... :)

    Yes,the email light is outlined in the shape of an envelope it suppose to light up when you receive new mail.
    To set this one up right click on the Launch Manager in the system tray,click E-Mail Detection and fill User name,password and POP3 Server.Check "Check Mail" of course and enjoy ;)
