    Hey guys..

    So I've finally decided to switch to XP.. I've all the drivers + knowledge I believe I need :) And will do as soon as I finish Assassins Creed :D

    But another thing I read at several places that my media buttons won't work on XP. Any clues on how to fix that? Because I don't want to have useless buttons, and having to change volume manually every time etc.

    Please help!

    no one? :(

    I actually read somewhere, that this problem exists on Dell Studio 15.. which model, I don't know. A few people were complaining and there was this one guy who somehow fixed it but never said how!
