HP laptop F1-12 keys inverted with Fn
Problem
I recently bought an HP laptop. I'm pleased with it, save for one thing. All the F1-12 keys are inverted. I mean the following: All the F-keys have a symbol on it. Normally you would press Fn + your to use it. On this laptop, it's reversed. The symbol is what you get when you press the button normally and you have to press Fn + F-key to get the usual action. So, if I want to refresh a webpage, instead of just F5, I have to do Fn + F5 I want to change this to regular behavior. Anybody know how I can do this? Running Win7 Home premium, 64-bit.

Fix for: HP laptop F1-12 keys inverted with Fn
I can use Shift+Fn (actually Fn + Shift, button-down-order seems to matter here) on my Elitebook to invert/swap Fn and F-Keys (aka "lock Fn"). The keyboard indicates the current mode with a little light on the Fn key and also shows the switching option printed on the Shift-Key, see screenshots attached. Sometimes it's worth checking the printings on the keyboards before using google thought - learned it the hard way ^^
