    I did a clean install of XP and followed the directions on the sony support site in the order I installed all the drivers.

    However, none of the "function" keys seem to work (volume, mute, brightness, etc).

    I must have missed installing something, but i don't know what! Help!

    You need the hotkey utility. This exact question has been answered before though I don't remember where the person ended up finding this utility.
