I thought my problem was related to this bug, however deleting files did
not fix the Function keys working as if the Fn key was pressed.

I booted into Windows for the first time in a year and it exhibited the
same problem.  I concluded that there must be a problem in the BIOS.

I just checked and my Dell Studio 1749 actually has an option to toggle
the default behavior of the F keys.  For some reason (I can only guess a
BIOS update) it had switched from the traditional key use to the Fn key
use.
