Hi I am having a very strange problem.
The enter key on my keyboard is by default being mapped to the numpad's enter key and hence I am unable to play many games.
I tried remapping using sharp keys but the games are not detecting this remap. It takes the original values.
I tried reformatting but still the problem is not resolved.
I run the a01 bios.
THE GAMES that I tried include NFS Shift ,NFS under cover and crysis.
In crysis , I can use the mouse , so I went to controller options and tried to assing the enter key to some function, It detects that enter key as numpad enter key.
In the NFS series , due to this problem , i am unable to get past the "Press Enter screen" which i am unable to!
What should I do?
Help me guys, I just received this notebook 2 days back.

Didn't you just post this in another thread?
I've not come across this problem, but then I do most of my gaming using an external keyboard and mouse so I couldn't tell you if this is default behavior or not.
Have you tried calling up Technical Support? I hate to make that suggestion since so many other people have already reported that the technical support experience is less than optimal, but it's worth a try right? Nothing to lose. -
Froogle, If you play NFS shift , just tell me if the same problem happens to you too!
Till now I have seen 2 people with the same problem.
Please do check if your able to play NFS using the internal keyboard's enter so if there is anything wrong with my keyboard, I can get a replacement. -
just tested mine cant play nfs shift also without an external keyboard
just tested a few more other games cant play due to the enter key being recognized as the numeric enter key -
My M15x has the same keyboard issue with the (only) enter key being the "keypad enter" instead of the standard "enter". I think this is a hardware bug. I have a support case with Dell open on this currently.
