To change the functionality of the colored hotkeys on your Asus N50VN series laptop so that Winamp pops up instead of Windows Media Center when you press them, you can follow these steps:

Remapping Hotkeys in Windows Vista:​

• Open Winamp:
• Make sure Winamp is installed on your system. If not, download and install it. [*Use Third-Party Software:
• You might need a third-party software tool to remap the hotkeys to open Winamp. One popular tool for remapping keys is AutoHotkey. [*Download and Install AutoHotkey:
• Visit the https://www.autohotkey.com/ to download and install the software. [*Create a Script:
• Once AutoHotkey is installed, create a new script. [*Remap the Hotkeys:
• In the script, assign the colored hotkeys to open Winamp instead of Windows Media Center. For example, you can use the following script:

   #e::Run, "C:\Path\to\Winamp.exe"

  This script remaps the Win + E key combination to launch Winamp. You would replace #e with the key combination that launches Windows Media Center and "C:\Path\to\Winamp.exe" with the actual path to the Winamp executable. [*Save and Run the Script:
• Save the script with a .ahk extension, such as remap.ahk. Double-click the script to run it. [*Test:
• Test the remapped hotkey to ensure Winamp opens correctly. By using AutoHotkey or a similar tool, you can customize the behavior of the hotkeys on your laptop to launch Winamp instead of Windows Media Center when pressed. This way, you can enjoy your preferred media player with just a key press.
