Base system device, Pci device, SM bus controller & 3 unknown devices .. and one more problem is whenevr i type some keys such as u,i,o,p,j,k,l & m which have double fuctions with the fn key instead of the usual key i get the fn key letters such as 4,5,6,*,1,2,3 & 0 ... how do i disable the fn key function ... please help

    There's a numbers lock button on there somewhere, which is probably turned on. I'm not too familiar with the Y500.
