Hi,
Multimedia keys need the support of software, they aren't part of the OS
keyboard driver set. Unless the manufacturer has created software to support
them under a given operating system, then they are unlikely to work. It's
niether a Vista or x64 glitch, it's lack of software support from the
manufacturer.

I thought I'd had my Vostro 1710 all configured for x64 SP1 (with all
updates), when I noticed the multimedia keys do nothing (e.g. Volume).
Device Manager lists it as a Standard PS/2 keyboard, which AFAIK is
appropriate. Dell offers no keyboard driver for any platform. There's
nothing to do in the Keyboard CP applet.
Since the keys did work in XP, is this a Vista glitch in general or x64
specifically?
