    I just recieved my arctic white i7 equipped XPS 16 in the mail today. After installing StarCraft 2, the settings were not performing well at all under high. I decided I would try it after a fresh reinstall, since I was planning on doing that anyways.

    I installed all the drivers on the CD Dell shipped with my laptop, but a few problems.

    1. The function buttons don't seem to work. I click function+f3 and my power management doesn't come up. Or Function+f1 and it doesn't sleep. I can't locate a driver anywhere to solve this!

    2. My touch buttons/cd eject button doesn't work. Not sure what to do about this, I can't find any CLEARLY labeled drivers to solve this either. The buttons for volume seem to work, but Eject is the one I really care about.

    Can anyone help me? I'm not even sure if I should try starcraft now...
