Well, it is, just press M again

1: First Person View

3: 3rd Person View: The Camera turns as your character turns.

You can switch with TAB between the chat and the game. Sometimes you have to press it twice to work.
Target window: It shows the person you targeted (right click to target a character)
Running speed: hmm, concerning your other questions, did you press shift
