Using the shortcut keys

Press a shortcut key (<S> Key) on the left side of your keyboard to start your favourite software, without having to follow a path on the computer.

If you so wish, you can use VAIO Action Setup to change the functions of the <S> Keys. All six buttons are reprogrammable.

The programmable <S> Keys come with the following applications as their default settings (this may vary):

<S1> — Help and Support Center

<S2> — Outlook Express

<S3> — Internet Explorer

<S4> — SonicStage

<S5> — Giga Pocket

<S6> — PictureGear Studio
