    Hey guys, I just did a fresh install of Windows 7 on my Vaio Z, and almost everything is working fine.

    I tried doing a search, but not too much has helped me out.

    The one major issue I'm having right now that's really bothering me is the use of the VAIO and ASSIST buttons. I tried using Custom S Button Launcher from this forum (Sorry, I don't remember exactly from where or from whom), and it worked at first, but then suddenly the ASSIST button doesn't do anything again and the VAIO button turned back into a mute button. The program seems to still be working, and I checked the registry, and the program is writing values into the registry. Now, what I don't get is why it's not working properly even though it's in the registry like it should be.

    Please help!

    Thanks.
