What are these keys supposed to be doing On my mac the media keys (play, volume updown, mute) are further to the right (F6,7,8,9 perhaps-not at my mac at the moment).

If you are indeed talking about media keys they changed a bit in High Sierra.

Open windows Control Panel, open Programs and Features, right click the entry for HP QuickPlay Software and select Uninstall.

When windows has reloaded, download and install HP System Event Utility on the following link.

When the installation has completed, restart the notebok once more before checking.

When I pressed the Play button and I thought it was going to work cause around the mouse it was thinking but sadly, the multimedia keys still dont work.

Tap away at the esc key as soon as you start the notebook to enter the Start-up Menu, then select f10 to enter the Bios Menu.

Press f5 to load the defaults ( this is sometimes f9, but the menu at the bottom will show the correct key ), use the arrow keys to select Yes and hit enter.

Press f10 to save the setting and again use the arrow keys to select Yes and hit enter.

Is there any other options to fixing it Thank you so much for helping me, greatly appreciate it DavidPK wrote: Hi, Try resetting the bios defaults as follows.
