Viao Laptop Fn Key Driver for Vista? by [email protected]
Hi, I have just installed Vista on my Vaio VGN-BX196SP laptop and nearly everything was detected and installed OK. The internal memory card readers and fingerprint scanner seem to be fine using the old XP drivers. The problem I have is with the Fn key. This is used to control the brightness of the screen along with volume and a couple of other functions. This key no longer has any effect. I can...

Help and Support by flyfishnm
My installation of Vista went well and is running fine. However, when I go to Help and Support and click a hyperlink the results show but to the left of the results on each line of information is an empty box with a red X in it and the words "Hide content". It is obviously an image but the image never shows and is beginning to get annoying especially when I click the "Show all" at the top...

installing new programs by needhelp
I just purchase a lap top which has Windows Vista on it. I've been trying to install a new program and it keeps telling me that that specified path is undetected. I think its because the program supports Windows XP. It installed the same program on my home computer last night and it worked. Does this mean I won't be able to put any of my software programs previously puchased on this new...

Windows Vista Start up by TK1
Hey Guys Just a quick question. I installed Vista and I had no problems. The only thing is when the PC starts up i feel like somethings missing. On XP when the PC booted up it showed the Windows Xp logo and some green line moving side to side. Now when Vista loads there is no logo but still a yellow line moving side to side. Is the logo missing for some reason or is that how it is...

Could someone provide a pointer to documentation on...

Changing MCE tv-signal to cable by srjessen
I have recently bought Windows Vista 32-bit. But when i try to use MCE to watch tv, it has to be set-up first, of course. But i can only select region and not tv-signal as i could in MCE 2004/2005, and it is set by default in my system to receive tv via antenna. I have a cable-signal, but i can't find any help anywhere on how to change this. Can anyone help?

Good info for users of localized, non-US versions of Vista Ultimate by Edric
Hi I had this great doubt before buying a non-US localized version of Vista Ultimate (specifically Portuguese): was it able to receive all the latest updates as the US version? Yes, but you first have to go to Vista Updates and get the "English Language Pack", install it, logoff, login and run Windows Update again: there you will see all the updates that were not designed to you localized...

VISTA INSTALL AND OUTLOOK CONNECTOR by Ron Sellner
I was not satisfied with the install process. The computer on which I installed this version of Vista had XP Prof installed on the primary hard drive. I installed Vista by loading it from the OS on that partition and then installing it on a clean hard drive, for a clean install. Vista did install on the clean hard drive, but it installed the “System” onto the primary hard drive...
