Hi Jomo,

what model Vaio do you have.?

Are you using the Sony supplied OS.?

Do the FN keys work when Increasing or decreasing the volume.?

Hi Jomo,

download the Original Utilities Package from Vaio-Link, Use the following link: Sony Vaio Support Original Utilities Package

Once downloaded extract the files and then install the following, in order.

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:
