2 problems after clean install of vista

[sharring]

I have recently installed a clean copy of vista on my AR51M laptop to rid it of the all the bloatware than came pre-installed.

Have managed to install all drivers & utilities and all is well except for:-

'S1' 'S2' do not funtion and the application for programming these buttons is not present.

Also the application for programming the logo lamp is also not present and stays on all the time (even when media player is operational).

All other hotkeys are working i.e. AV mode, Fn keys

It may be something I still need to install ?

Any help would be gratefully received.

Please anyone ?

You need to install Sony Utilities Series to enable S1 and S2. Unfortunately it is not available to download on sony files. best is to use the one from the AR4 series. Also you need to install the vaio event from the AR4 otherwise it won't work.
SO 1 download the file sfrom sony
2 uninstall vaio event from ar5
3 install vaio event from AR4
4 reboot
5 install vaio event from AR4

cheers

I assume all AR4 model have the same software.
