    Anyone,

    I have a new T420S (one week old). I really like the machine, but... the fullscreen magnifier (Fn-Spacebar) doesn't seem to do anything. Windows (and the Lenovo software) have already automatically downloaded and installed the latest updates. Can anyone think of something else I should try? Is this a known issue?

    Thanks so much,

    David

    John,

    Yes, that fixed it! Thank you!

    I had used the Lenovo Toolbox to do automatic updates of everything that was ostensibly needed on my machine... obviously, it didn't get this particular update automatically.
