I'm aware that you have this listed as one of your "known issues" down below and that it says this: "Using the keyboard in BIOS mode prevents the media keys (including mute and volume wheel), as well as the K95's G-keys from working. This is a hardware limitation." but how exactly do I get around this limitation? I have a Corsair K95 (the one with 18 G-keys) and want to know how to bind them. For example, since I take French in school, I'd like to bind french accent keyboard shortcuts such as Alt-0224 like I would when using windows. Here's a snippet of what that looks like when I try doing so with your software:

The options are 8, 4, 2, 1 and it's already been set to 1.

It's always been set to 1.

So, there's still an issue I'm having whenever I try to set any key bindings involving the "Alt" character despite me not being in BIOS mode then.

The way I got around this, for anyone looking at this in the future is that I went into my system settings and turned on Compose Key in order to bind french accents as macro keys.
