    I can't find the the hotkey utility application from the sony web site.model is VGN-NR160E. Tks !

    To enable the Function keys in the Computer, it is required to install VAIO Event Services. In older Computers, the application was called Hotkey Utility and in the newer Models, VAIO Event Services is used to enable the Function keys. You can download the VAIO Event Services (Notebook Utility) from the link below.

    I can't boot up the Vista install on a Sony Vaio VGN-NR160E

    go to your BIOS Setup, see to it that there is a Hard Disk Boot Priority, maybe you didn't put it there.
