    Hi ,

    I upgraded my vaio VGN FS550 from Home edition to XP Pro through a clean installation . I created the recovery disc , but somehow i am not able to get the hotkey utility back , becoz of which i am not able to use the function keys and the S1 and S2 keys available, which is very frustrating . Sony guy say that u cant get it back , all you need to do is to go back to XP home edition and then upgrade. They said u cant donwload it anywhre from sony's site.

    I am really helpless now . Request if somebody can copy the HKServ.exe file from you laptop and mail it to me at [email protected]
    Plzzzz help.

    Thanx a lot in advance .
