Binding keys to volume controls

I'm using an IBM Model M keyboard with a PS2->USB adaptor on my 10.5.5 iMac. I have managed to bind expose, dashboard, spaces, etc. to the F-keys but I can't find where I can bind increase and decrease volume to F-keys.

Can anyone please tell me how I can bind increase volume to F12 and decrease volume to F11?

Macbook & iMac, Mac OS X (10.5.5), .

you can't rebind volume keys. does your keyboard have a function key? if it does, try function+F-keys. your volume controls may be there depending on how your keyboard system preferences are set up. there is a box in system preferences->keyboard&mouse->keyboard that flips functionality of F-keys and function+F-keys.

It seems odd how you can rebind the rest but not those...

The keyboard doesn't have a function button, it doesn't even have a meta key but I just bound cmd to ctrl, and ctrl to caps lock.
