    Just got a new Gateway NX55S04u, and I've noticed that when using the WASD keys to play a game, the touch pad turns off (I assume to stop your palm from messing it up while typing) I was wondering if there is a way to stop the touch pad from turning off, as I dont always have a mouse with me. Also, is there a way to turn the one touch function keys back to a normal F3 key is F3 and you hit FN+F3 to turn wifi off, instead of having to do FN+F3 to do F3?
