I wasn't aware Dell made pianos. If note F1 isn't functioning, try seeing if the front of the key is rubbing on the keyslip. If that's good, check the regulation. Maybe your hitting the key too hard and it's slipping from under the knuckle. As far as the other F keys are concerned, beware the piano if it has an F9 key - it may be a fake. <div class="gmail_quote">On Sun, Oct 14, 2012 at 4:08 PM, Duaine Hechler <<a href="mailto:dahechler@att.net" target="_blank">dahechler@att.net</a>> wrote: <blockquote class="gmail_quote" style="margin:0pt 0pt 0pt 0.8ex;border-left:1px solid rgb(204,204,204);padding-left:1ex"> That is also part of the problem - not even F1 is working !
