    you might need to reinstall the ATK0100 driver.

    Are you using battery or AC? Also, are you running chc/hnc?

    I second djembe's suggestion... reinstall the ATK0100 ACPI driver and all should be well.

    The reason I asked about chc is because when I have the DC settings set to max battery, my fn keys will work maybe once or twice and then they won't show up or work at all. Now if I then switch the DC setting to even Battery optimize, the functions come back. I'm running version 1043.2.15.48 on the ATK0100 drivers. I saw there was an update but only .50 I think and it didn't mention any major changes. But maybe I'll try it and see if I then have fn functions in all modes. I'll get back to ya.

    That's an odd problem... I haven't experienced such problems with CHC in any modes I run.
    I'm running CHC version 1.8.2
