Function Keys Nightmare on Laptop

I finally got tired of having to put up with the function keys while using my keyboard on the laptop. When you love using the keyboard especially when playing games there’s a lot of repetition. I didn’t mind the F1 popping up a few times because I could click back to the application very quickly. Don’t get me wrong though, I didn’t like the help support window popping up on me. F2 and F3 were a little more annoying because it messed with the lightness and darkness of the screen. I had some tolerance as this was my new laptop we’re talking about.

The problem came when I needed the F12 key. I can’t have my internet connection disconnecting on me every time I hit the F12 key! The application I use requires the F12 key to take screenshots. Then I had to find a solution for this. I’m using a HP Pavilion g series notebook if anyone was interested. I don’t think this was a Windows 7 issue. The solution I went with is to restart the laptop and press F10 when the HP logo came up. Went into the system configuration and disabled the function keys. I’m sure you can get around it yourself with the arrow keys and enter button.

Anyway, this was a nightmare because I didn’t want another second of it. Now I can peacefully go on with my lovely life. Too bad I don’t get a certificate for solving my own problems. I’ll just give myself a pat on the back.

 

Great at Starting and Terrible at Finishing

My websites just had a maintenance so I wasn’t able to do anything with them yesterday. I tried to remove the comments section of my Pages because I don’t really want anyone writing stuff there. The Pages made on my Official Site wasn’t made for comments. I’m using WordPress so all I had to do was go to each Page and remove the check on the box that allowed comments. This can be found from the discussion screen options. I also completed a small project playing a game called RIFT. I added the story to my Great Friends sub-domain. I just leveled from 1-50 and had a little talk about the features of the online game.

I’ve been a little busy trying to get on with life. Moving home and starting to pack everything up. I’ve still got three more songs to complete in my first Christmas Collection of traditional songs. I should be able to get that done before everything is out of the house. So apart from cleaning house I’ve also been cleaning my websites. Clarinet Community and Sheet Music Affiliate no longer exists. Well, they’re no longer being maintained. Making SherwinJTB my brand name is quite funny. I used to have an email address with the username sherwinb, but I forgot the password. I’m not even sure I thought about recovering the password.

So what’s the title all about? I’m great at starting and terrible at finishing. Excellent at finding new ideas, but shocking when it’s time to get the stuff done. I could be called an inventor that never invented anything. I’m trying to stay positive as always. It’s fun running my own website I have to admit. Let’s hope the fun never dies.
