Hi ki klop,

Normally doing the following seems to fix the FN keys but you said you've already installed the new Vista utilities..

Try downloading and installing the following utilities for your AR21S again from here

1 Sony Utilities
2 Sony Shared Library
3 Vaio Event Service

Once completed then re-boot your vaio.

You may have to do this more than once..:smileywink:

2 Sony Shared Library 3.1.00.10240(not the Sony Video Shared Library)
3 Vaio Event Service 3.0.00.13110

Hello,

I fixed the problem. Thank you very much.

The truth is i bought the computer with German keyboard and a German XP operation system. When my friend installed an english Vista on my computer it was a big mess. We somehow solve the problem but anyway I would like to get a recovery Cd for Vaio AR21B in English and then I would upgrade to Vista. If you know anybody who has such CD or where can I get it I would realy apreciate it.

I would like to thank you and send you a bottle of wine if you are from Europe for the help.
You can give me your address on my web site.
