    Heys guys,

    I want to know if it is possible to remap the "FN" key on the keyboard for the 6831fx.

    This laptop is for gaming but its not very userfriendly when you play first person shooter game like COD4. The left "CTRL" key is sooo small. So I have the idea to remap the left "FN" key for a duplicate left "CTRL"

    Is it possible ?

    Thx guys

    I agree with you waltz, whenever i play and FPS, i find myself trying to crouch and nothing happens. It so hard to try and reverse 5 years of muscle memory.Thats i my only true beef with this laptop.

    I have to agree too. I now have to revert to an external keyboard to get on with my intense CoD4 matches.
