Fn shortcut not working

Butch Cassidy · 2011-03-20 11:50:28

The FN+F6 shortcut key to lock my computer doesn't work . The rest of them seem to work okay but it's just this one. I'm running Xp on a Compaq Presario V6000

Or if your keyboard doesn't have a Windows Key, press Ctrl-Alt-Del to invoke the Task Manager and under the Shutdown menu, there is a 'Lock Computer' option.
(This is true for most versions of Windows anyway.)

Cheers folks. The Windows key + L did the trick. What other shortcuts are there with that key? I know about Windows key + m minimizing all windows. Are there others?
