    Few days ago I build a new PC and wondering to get a keyboard with media-keys or not. Finally I got a plain Logitech keyboard.
    Then while searching to configure unused keys like F11,F12,Pause/break , PgUp/PgDn.
    I found this awesome utility #-Link-Snipped-# .
    This is really simple utility to configure any key or combination of key to do the job. Just need to run this software--> add a simple script which will run in background and every thing is done.
    Even while programming we need to write few set of words again and again. like
    public static void main() or System.out.println("");
    just configure it once and type sop followed by space and it will write full text automatically.
    Here is #-Link-Snipped-#.

    edit: here is a simple script I am using:
    just save as .ahk file and run it after installing AutoHotKey
    PgUp::Send {Volume_Up 3}
    PgDn::Send {Volume_Down 3}
    Break::Send {Media_Play_Pause}
    F12::Send {Media_Next}
    F11::Send {Media_Prev}
    return
    /*Shortcut for quick shutdown and hibernate*/
    #S::
    Run, "C:\Users\ANOOP\ForceShutdown"
    return
     
    #H::
    Run, "C:\Users\ANOOP\HibernateQuick"
    return
     
    /*a simple program to turn monitor off*/
    ^L::
    Run, "E:\Software\Microsoft\TurnOffLCD.exe"
     
    /*using abbreviations    */
    ::btw::by the way
     
    ::sop::System.out.println("");
