    Last night I was installing upgrading some drivers programs on my CF30MK2. I did not touch one thing that I THOUGHT had to do with my video drivers. I get finsihed with what I was doing and my Fn pop up would not work properly. I have been using the video driver for the CF30 MK3 for a long time now with no problems. It is the 8.15.1930 or something like that.

    I had to go back and uninstall some of the Panny drivers, software I had installed and it still was not working right. I then uninstalled the Hotkey stuff, and Common drivers. Still no go after installing them corectly. Finally I had to go back and remove the video driver and install the old one that is on Panny's download page for this model. Now it all works perfectly. I can honestly say without any questions that the Video driver does get in the way of the Fn keys and program working properly. If you run into a problem with your's make sure you go and install the video driver that Panny has for your model. I don't why it's like this, but it is.

    This MK2 has always booted fast in my opinion. Now, I can hit the switch and be locked on to WIFI in 33 seconds. To me that is pretty good, considering my MK3 is a little over a minute.
