Yes this is contest related! <grin> most of our contest apps use the

Had this problem with my Toshiba. Fortunately, Toshiba has a setup
utility to change it

For Dell, this may require going into your bios.
Google "Win8.1 Function Key Settings Dell" or something similar - or call Dell
tech support
you might have to dig
cheers
