Joe, you can change that in your BIOS set up. When you start there's one of the function buttons you hit (I think for me it's F9 or F8 it should tell you) look around you should find something regarding function and media keys, you can set which ones need fn to be held down there.
Sorry those directions are vague at best, but I don't have to change it very often.
You can probably find me in game if I'm on by using @who spuz.
Other then that message me here or something, not sure how often I will check it.
