    Someone created this really nice program which worked very well for Asus laptop.

    Those buttons you have on the M6 and Z71V (for example) will now activate Winamp and control Winamp with this adjustment.

    This (HControl.exe) will let you use the sidebuttons on your Asus laptop with Winamp. Also the wireless buttons (by power button on top and Fn+F2) will not open the Network Connections folder.

    Report any bugs.

    This already worked in Winamp with the driver revision he talks about. Just enable the 'global hotkey' plugin from within Winamp options and the front/side play/pause/skip/stop-buttons should control it just fine.

    They work in Foobar2000 also. As in Winamp: Have a look in the options to enable global hotkey support.
