    Just above the F11, F12, and F13...

    I got mine used so no manuals ect.
    I tried checking the manufacture site and downloaded the manual but it didn't say anything...

    I can touch them and they flash for a moment but that's it I don't see any onscreen notifications or any changes of any sort....

    So what are they for?

    One looks like the Gamers republic logo, one looks like a guy running with a lightning bolt for legs. The other looks like the mouse with a line through it.

    On my G73 the running man (with a clock) is turbo boost.
    The third one, should be obvious - it turns off the track pad (very useful if you use an external mouse, like me)

    Go here, select your notebook (G51Vx) and I think it's the ATK driver you need to download.
