Sony VAIO PCG-GRZ630 WinXP Hotkey not working....

    From the two drives I have, I decided to partition my D drive to be
    primarily the drive for game playing so programs won't run in the background
    and slooooow things down and cause framerate dropping. C drive is fine of
    course, so did a clean install of WinXP on D drive, and installed drivers
    for my display (ATI Radeon Mobility 7500), Touchpad, and Yamaha audio. But,
    my Fn Hotkeys aren't registering. I've already put in the Application
    Recovery discs and installed HKey, but the Fn buttons still won't register.
    I've checked Task Manager and it says both HKServ.exe and HKWnd.exe are
    running, but when pressing Fn+F3, etc., nothing happens - no display or
    sound onscreen to indicate the key presses, nor does it register at all.
    Anyone know how to get this back up and runnin?

    Hi JaeMasaki -

    You also need to install the Sony Utilities DLL in order to make any of the
    Sony installed applications work.
