Hmm very odd. First I would check you're using the right drivers for your keyboard. Does F5 work for other programs than games?

Is this a desktop or a laptop? Are you using a standard keyboard, or is it one of these weird ones like those rather odd dvorak ones? If it's standard then I'd check you're using the layout for a standard layout. Of course that only realy applies to desktops.

An old keyboard of mine had an "f-lock" key which, when pressed, turned the function keys from media keys (or something similarly ridiculous) to function keys. It was a button - not a key.  Check out for something like that.
