    Hi everyone.
    I have a problem with this laptop: I can't get the S1 S2 keys to work.

    Facts:
    - I installed Windows 7, following the guides here (but using drivers for my model).
    - Other keys (FN + ...) works correctly (sound muting, volume +-, brightness, external display, zoom....).
    - To run the various sony utilities (Vaio Control Center, Setting Utility Series, Battery Care) in Admin Mode (UAC Prompt).

    No matter which settings I change for S1, S2 they are simply ignored, but still appear in the config applications.

    Thanks in advance for any reply. I am checking if the other utils settings work.

    EDIT: the same is true for other utils too (example: Action when opening the lid when the notebook is in sleep mode)
