You can use the TOSHIBA Accessibility Utility to make the FN key sticky, 

that is, you can press it once, release it, and then press an "F Number" key. 

To start the TOSHIBA Accessibility utility, click Start -> All Programs -> 

TOSHIBA -> Utilities -> Accessibility.

The keyboard provides two keys that have special functions in Windows, 

the Windows Start Button key activates the Start menu while the 

application key has the same function as the secondary (right) mouse 

button.

This key activates the Windows Start menu.

This key has the same function as the secondary (right) mouse button. 

Your computer's keyboard may not have a separate numeric keypad but 

includes a numeric keypad overlay which functions like one - this is located 

in the center of the keyboard with the relevant keys having grey letters at 

their front edge. The overlay provides the same functions as the numeric 

keypad on a standard 104/105-key enhanced keyboard.

The numeric keypad overlay can be used for numeric data input or cursor 

and page control.

To turn on Arrow Mode, press FN + F10 - you are able to access cursor and 

page control functions by using the keys. You are able to press FN + F10 

again to turn off this overlay function.

To turn on Numeric Mode, press FN + F11 - you are able to access numeric 

characters by using the keys. You are able to press FN + F11 again to turn 

off this overlay function.

While using the overlay, you can temporarily access the normal keyboard 

functions without having to turn the overlay off:
1. Hold down FN key and press any other key - this key will operate as if 

the overlay were off.

2. Type upper-case characters by holding down FN + SHIFT and pressing 

a character key.
