    So I followed the instructions linked here: http://forum.notebookreview.com/asus/150016-asus-notebook-keys-v1-3-a-13.html#post5716422

    I successfully got the Hex edit of the ATK HControl.exe completed and was able to assign the keys as I wanted but the problem is, how do I make Fn + down arrow (play) actually play/pause in winamp? I can only assign keystrokes with the AsusNbKeysCTRL program. I can't actually make Fn + Down arrow pause/play a song.

    One guy suggested enabling global hotkeys in winamp and then make the keystrokes match up so that Fn + down arrow = to CTRL + ALT + SHIFT + INS. This does work but the problem is, I can't combine a pause+play function on 1 button by doing this method, I would have to have separate pause and play buttons programmed in AsusNbKeysCTRL. I hope I'm making sense.

    Any ideas? Thanks!
