    On my VGN-S460 running XP, my Fn buttons (mute, volume up/down, screen brightness up/down) sometimes stop working. If I restart my computer they start working again. Any solutions?

    thanks

    I get this occasionally too. But I found that logging off and back on fixes it. Not a fix, but a bit quicker than a full restart.
