    Why the hell did sager make it so that the sleep button [F4] is RIGHT next to the volume down key [F5]??? I will be playing games, want to turn down the volume with Fn+F5 and accidentally press the sleep key, and bam, I'm disconnected... Is there anyway to manually disable/change those Fn keys!?!?!

    You can go into the Control Panel -> Power Settings and set all your power configs to "Do Nothing" "When the sleep button is hit".
