[QUOTE="kjellquist, post: 19972"] We have some homegrown Windows only apps here at work that I use in Virtual PC when at home. They run great....but....many of the functions are associated with the std PC function keys. The app is not GUI and for example I need to use F12 to file. This one is pretty easy and I can use Fn + F12 to file, but some of the others require....Shift + Fn + F8, etc. Unfortunately, I find I am constantly hitting F8 out of habit and raising/lowering the volume and other things. Is there an easy way to temporarily inactivate the shortcuts associated with the keys (volume, brightness)? [/QUOTE]
