    *Note* I came across this forum while researching my problem of google, thus I'm new here. If I have posted in the wrong thread please forgive me. This looked like the best fit


    I have an ASUS M51Sn downgraded back to XP 32-bit SP2 and I have just about everything where I would like it except for the function media controls. I use Winamp rather than Windows Media player and even after playing around with global hotkeys I cannot get the FN + Left Arrow (Previous song), FN + Right Arrow (Next song), etc, etc keys to work. Every time they are pressed they open up Windows Media player. Is there a way to rebind them to Winamp or just general global hotkey cotrol? I looked in the directory for ATKHOTKEYS (The program I believe controls the FN shortcut keys) but I didn't see an .ini file to edit that might help me.

    Any idea from any of the more tech savvy out there? Anything is welcome and much appreciated.
