in the system tray you can usually find volume, and if this is muted, unmute it.

  Subject: [access-uk] Toshiba laptops - disabling FN keys?


  Hi,

   

  Had a bit of a nasty issue today because last night I was in a bit of a hurry 
to turn the system off, and instead of pressing alt+escape to go into the start 
menu, pressed fn+escape to go into the sound mute.  Unfortunately this 
completely overrides the Windows volume settings, and the setting seems to be 
saved across reboots.

   

  Tried looking in the manual which is a non-accessible PDF file.  I then 
disabled a range of hotkey utilities in msconfig, but they just seem to provide 
visual information/clues, not actually disable the hotkeys themselves.

   

  Anyone any ideas?

   

  Model is an Equium L10, though it may be the same with other models.  Will 
phone them on Monday (on my day off!)

   

  Andrew.
