Hi thanos_k

For some Vaios the Fn keys work with Vista and for others they don't!! If they don't you will have to wait for the Sony Utility updates for Vista.

It is worth trying to reinstall the utilities more than once as they don't always work first time.

Two ways to do this: -

1. If you have a folder C:\Utils, double click on Utils.exe to reinstall the Utilities.

2. If you don't have that folder (you probably won't) try installing the Downloaded Utilities again IN ORDER

A. Sony Utilities (installer folder 1)
B. Sony Shared Library (installer folder 2)
C. Vaio Event Service (probably installer folder 5 - but check)

Reboot.

:wink:
