    Hi, I've recently tried remapping the Rec button on my Acer 5920 (small circle at the bottom of the media buttons on the right) but now it won't do anything. I wanted it to open up the C:\Program Files folder and the sound plays but nothing happens

    I used this article here http://forum.notebookreview.com/archive/index.php/t-143265.html to edit my registry and the entry currently looks like this

    HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Quanta\QtZgAcer\Settings\Buttons\Rec

    Default Value - (Value Not Set)
    Command - C:\Program Files\
    Command Type - 1
    Configable - 1
    Remote Code - Programs

    Can anyone help me get this button running again?

    Thanks

    install launch manager again for the media keys and start again.
    did you read the whole thread ?
    Command - C:\Program Files\ where's the rest of the command line ?
