I used to own a laptop that's function keys had various useful commands, for example, play/pause, fastforward, and rewind, that could control, for example, iTunes.
However, my current laptop does not have any keys assigned to music controls, they are just volume/up down, brightness up/down (etc.), and a few just left blank, with no special function.
Is there a way to give these spare function keys a special function?
UPDATE
It is a Samsung Series 3 501UK notebook.
I have installed all drivers - it's not that the function keys don't work, it's that I'd like to change the special functions they are assigned to.
