Title: Configuration

Edit
just bumping to be helpful for anyone else having the same problem, but I fixed (sort of) this by pressing ctrl + [button of whatever camera I want] IE for orbit cam it's "ctrl + f2" or action cam is "ctrl + f3 = f4".

Original Post:

 :vista:
I got a new PC for Christmas. It's a Compaq and it's Windows 8.
The problem:
I can barely do anything in the game because every f[number] button controls something random on the computer. So, in the game, I can't change the camera angle, use the F10 camera, show the green lines, show the robot controls in battle mode or take screenshots normally.
Can I configure the game controls and/or my computer differently? I may need some help from Administrators but please help me out.


P.S. Did my description make sense?
