Function key operation

I got a new laptop at Christmas, and happened to find a setting that made the F-keys software driven, instead of Dell driven when DataCAD is open. I had to do a "reset to default" this morning so now my F-keys adjust the speakers even when DataCAD is open. Foggy on the resolution to the problem, don't see it in the program preferences. Help?

Google shows this

"Restart your Windows computer and when it starts booting, press the F2 key to enter the BIOS settings. Press the Advanced tab and double-click on Function key behavior. Change the setting from Multimedia key to Function key"
