Some of the Rapid Access buttons are preset to support important functions on
your computer (Mute, Volume, and CD/DVD controls); these cannot be changed.
There are seven color-coded Rapid Access buttons positioned across the top of the
keyboard. Some of these buttons are preset to start certain programs on your
computer. The preset functions are printed on the label above the buttons. You can
keep these settings, or customize five of the buttons to start any program or file you
want. For example, if you enjoy playing Solitaire, you can customize a Rapid Access
Button to open the Solitaire program. The Help and Standby buttons are
permanently programmed.
