    Hello.
    I need help, please!
    I deleted my entire hard drive, so I have no recovery partition.
    I installed windows 7 and the drivers of the Web Sony, but no keys work STAMINA-SPEED ... or ASSIST, VAIO, and the Fn.
    What I can do?

    Now, I'm installing Windows 8 to test if it works without errors.
    Could you recommend a step? Whether Windows 7 or 8.

    The most important thing for me is to work the STAMINA-SPEED key.

    Greetings and thank you very much!

    If you just want the speed-stamina to work then just follow the windows 7 install guide on this forum, there are several. You won't recover the pre-packaged Sony stuff in the recovery partition but many people don't miss them.

    A quick google shows that it is a relatively recent model that has all the windows 7 & 8 drivers (see: http://esupport.sony.com/US/p/model...te_id=1&region_id=1&tab=download#/downloadTab) so you shouldn't have much trouble at all. You need these drivers from Sony:
    - programmable I/O controller
    - firmware extension parser
    - shared library
    - event service
