Hi again Milo


I'd already stared at the site for some time, but it doesn't mean a huge amount to me. I'm assuming I'm in no way flashing the BIOS, since the Vista side still works normally.

What is it I'm trying to achieve? I assume Sony is trying to marry a new OS - W7, with its hardware. But I really don't know.

Eventually, I did a downloaded from Notebook Control and Utilities which included Vaio launcher.

I received two files. One being SOATH-44600000-US 36.572 mb

It ran for ages, said it was finished, but made no discernible difference.

The smaller file said it would only run on Vista.

It's odd, because the Fn Vol does move the sound pointer up and down, so some functionality is there. Normally, as I'm sure you know, there is a display of the Fn activity on the screen.

Plugging in the external monitor works, but I have no control of the LT's screen from Fn, but again, I can do it via Control panel.

It's a shame, because I was so pleased to get the dual boot going after all this time.
