How To Turn Off 'fn Key Lock' On Q57 Laptop That Does Not Have A Numlock Key?

Functions that normally work when hitting an F# key are acting as if the FN Key is depressed.  When we hold the FN+F4, we get the function that we should get when we just hit F4 (without depressing FN).  All documentation states that FN+NumLock turns this "FN Lock" function off, but there is no NumLock

  1. Hit F10 during POST to get to setup utility
  2. Under System Configuration, disable the 'Action Keys Mode'

Done!
