    ok, so my laptop (g72Gx) somehow likes to mess with me. anywho, what it likes to do is turn the wireless off as well as turn the lights off on my laptops keyboard. if the laptop is off and then i turn it on, or if i just close the lid/put it to sleep, the wireless will turn itself off automatically (same for the lights on the keyboard). When i turn it back on (or wake it up), i have to do FN + F2 (for wireless) and Fn + f4 (for keyboard lights). is there a way to switch the "default" setting so they stay on? i know there is, but i cant remember HOW the heck to do it. any help would be appreciated.

    It depends when you want them to light up. On startup, I don't think you can change the default settings. Once you're in windows, I think you can. I just don't remember *how*.
