Hello to everyone,

i'm trying to modify functions of my acer Keybord (included in the original buying of my Acer AspireC27), because i want to "automatically" use the Function associated with the F1,2,3 ... instead of have to press Fn+F1,2,3 ... 

I've tried to find, in the BIOS, something that allowed me to do this but ... unfortunately, I couldn't find any specific area that allowed me to.

So ... do you maybe have any suggestions for me?


Thanks in advace for you support and best regards

P.s. in the picture u can see the Keyboard i'm talking about (only difference is that mine is wireless).
P.s. sorry even for my bed english!

    They typically don't support changing that in the BIOS on desktops, because the keyboard is changeable. On a laptop you are pretty much required to have the stock keyboard installed, so they can include tweaks like that. With a desktop they set the keyboard to act in the normal manner as all other keyboards, and only offer the media keys as Fn- triggered.

    Same as mine. I use F2 often so when I forget to press Fn then My All-in-One Aspire C22 Immediately Sleep!!!!
