    This. Is. Brilliant..

    Though if I turn the fan off, it comes right back up. When I press Fn R or FN T it directs me to the basic bios looking page. In a sense, yes Fn R works, but it's more of data display, not a control panel of some sort.

    Would also love to know how to manual control fan speed... To turn it off basically.

    As far as I know this "trick" only works for E6x00 Latitudes. I do not think you can stop the scroll lock light from flashing after you have entered the menu and before you reboot.
