Hiding the HUD on a laptop

I believe what Pilgrim42 said should help.

I know on my laptop I am lucky enough to have a full keyboard with full numpad. If anything you could just buy a USB Numpad, or a a USB keyboard(small sturdy ones go for $20)

I have an HP laptop and the key combo that worked for me was Function and then NumLock/Scroll Lock. There is a light at this key which indicates when it's on etc. After that, I believe it was the . (period) key which toggled the HUD.

Captains Paul Roberts and Nuc Nuc,

to load the men into the guns with a labtop perform the following steps:
1. Tap the Fn key next to the space bar.
2. Tap the Ins/NumLk key next to the Del key
3. Tap the "." key -- the HUD will disappear!!!

Load the men into the gun positions.

Reverse the steps (i.e, steps nos 3 to 1) to reinstate the Hud to original position!!!!

To remove the men from the gun positions, you can figure it out now.

I rest my case (I'm pretty smart, huh? [don't answer that.] Answer found at Microsoft web site for answers to technical questions, and previously posted by this captain months and months ago).
