New HP and I can't seem to take a picture while playing Empire

[PikeStance]

Hey,

As the title states. Previously, I pressed f12 and bam, it takes a photo. Now, f12 turns airplane mode on or off. Is there another way?

Thanks

I assume holding down the fn key and using the button does not work in game as it would on the desktop?

If not, try booting the computer, then going into BIOS setup (I think it should be f10 for HP computers). When in setup, scroll through to system configuration using the arrow keys. Go down the menu and change 'Action Keys Mode' to disabled (I assume it is currently enabled if f12 toggles wifi).

This should make the f keys do what they normally do (screenshot, full screen, refresh etc.) rather than the hp specific commands. The downside of this is that changing brightness or volume using the keyboard would then require holding the fn key down at the same time.

No, I didn't try the fn key, but I did now and it worked! thanks!
