Unlock Fn Key
I have an Inspiron 2650 and the Fn key is locked.....my cat sat on the keyboard.
I have tried everything I can think of to unlock but to no avail. I have to use the Fn key for all keys that have both characters/numbers or letter/numbers. Anyone know how to unlock??
There are 3 indicator lights at the top of the keyboard....1 is CAPS lock, 1 is NUMS lock and the third is what is lit and apparently controls this function but I have no idea what it is called. Sorry if I am not explaining myself properly. Thanks.

if you look at the Esc key you will see a padlock with the letters fn inside.....hold the FN key and press the Esc key and you toggle the function key to lock or unlock as you prefer.

This worked fine with an Inspiron 15 laptop, where I've been facing the problem of reversed mode Fn key for a couple of weeks. Now I'm almost sure I must have accidenteally pressed "Fn"+"Esc" somewhere along the line.
Thanks!
