    My FN key is not working because I installed a lot of the preinstalled vaio stuff.

    Well I like the FN key, but there is no way I am even going to consider doing a system restore. Can anyone send me a link to the sony driver for this because on their support page:

    http://esupport.sony.com/US/perl/swu-list.pl?mdl=VGNNR110E

    There is nothing in the drivers section for this...all I see is

    "Sony® Firmware Extension Parser - Installs the originally shipped version of the Sony Firmware Extension Parser."

    But I tried to install it and it tells me that I already have the latest version installed and it doesn't install that.

    Can someone pleaseee pleaseee help me here!! I really want my Fn key back and working without a system restore. Thanks

    Oh well, sometimes that's just the way things go. And yes, sometimes I do feel pretty useless. That's life.

    @shaba: Things don't always go your way. Be patient, and if you figured it out yourself, tell us what you did. It'd helpful for others. 3 replies in 4 hours and none of them containing any useful information (and on top of that dissing the forums) is probably not the way to behave. Just because we couldn't get back to you within 24 hours doesn't make us useless.

    Just throwing in my two cents here.
