    When I hit one of the vaio hotbuttons (whatever you call them--the two little programmable buttons above the keyboard), I get the message:

    "SBMsg.exe - Unable to locate component.
    The application failed to start because MFC70.dll could not be found"

    But, the application I have assigned to the button DOES load...

    When I do a search on my system for MFC70.dll, it is found, though not in the windows folder. It's in one of the sony folders in the the program folders, I think.

    Any ideas?

    Thanks!
