Hi,
Now that depends on what machine u r running (eg. Dell u hold "fn + f2" or Acer u have a small button, etc)
so make sure that yo hardware is enabled and thats it.
It would be nice if u give us the name of yo pc.
Cheers

Hmm, do you have the same laptop or something?

Also, the reason why I was so confused is because I thought it was a software switch I had to set, not an actual physical switch on the computer. And there was no documentation of this switch anywhere. Oh well, it's figured out now. I just wish people jumped in and helped sooner with such a simple question! Well i'll be here to help the next person who has the same problem.
