Try installing the Audio Driver from this link. For the Function key issue try installing the Sony Notebook Utilities (Notebook Control and Utilities - 2 file(s)).

http://esupport.sony.com/US/perl/swu-list.pl?mdl=VGNA690

Check the Operating System and the install the appropriate driver as mentioned above.

If the issue persists then install the Sony Shared Library Utility (System Components - 2 file(s)) and then the Audio Driver and Sony Notebook Utilities (Notebook Control and Utilities - 2 file(s)).


Good Luck!!!!!!!!!!!

Sony Vaio VGN A-690 no battery detected

Yeah. If when you take out the A/C adapter, the laptop goes off immediately, even though you have bought a new battery, then it's definitely some hardware issue with the laptop itself. I'd say just live with it as it wouldn't be worth getting fixed (cheaper to get a new laptop).

If it can run on battery fine, it's just that windows indicates that the battery is not detected, then it could be a software issue. But given it's the same in Windows 7 as with XP, this could be BIOS related. Perhaps try flashing the BIOS?
