F keys not working in game

[niknak]

Hi guys. Just installed Open Rails (starter pack with ZZ route) after running MSTS many moons ago. I have a Win10 laptop with integral Intel graphics. MSTS is also installed for content use only (won't run as a game on this Win10 laptop). OP runs fine, except the F keys don't appear to have been assigned - they still have their original use. eg:F4 brings up a column headed "Project" instead of Track Monitor. Have tried reinstalling but problem persists. Any tips please? Thanks.

I have to press the FN + the F key. Ex: FN+f4 to get track monitor.

Well that works! Many thanks Glenn. What are you pressing to get rid of the popup window afterwards?

[bandorr2000]

Pop up Window?

Pop up Window?

My bad. I mean the window showing the track monitor or whatever that pops up.

Just repeat the FN+F4, or whatever you displayed.

Thanks Glenn. I had tried that before ,as I remembered that was how MSTS worked, but without success. but after a reboot it now all works fine. Thanks again for the help.

Glenn I discovered my FN key action was reversed. Went into BIOS and changed it, so now I only need to press f4 etc without using the FN key.
