WIndows Re-installation issues...

[mrgame_cat]

Hi guys...

Due to ever increasing problems with Direct X 9.0 and Service Pack 2 I have decided to reinstall Windows XP Home onto my FR415B Vaio.

The reason I am going to use Home is that I tried to install XP Pro on it when I first got it and the drivers for Function Keys etc would not work...

My question is... If I format and reinstall will I be able to download all the drivers for the hardware (ie the screen, pointing device, function keys etc)

I have lost the original recovery disk and will be reinstalling windows using a seperate copy...

Please help me!!1

Do the rest of you get the feeling that we are the only ones that read this forum ?

To Sony, Club VAIO, VAIO Europe, VAIO-Link... ...at least one of you could actually read the forum and persuade the powers that be to address some of the issues that are raised!

We arethe users / consumers of your equipment, the peaple that ultimately pay your wages... ...give us help (and appropriate downloads / updates) when we ask for them!

I'm totally with James, Keelo etc on this one!!

Thankyou for your support Woody. Sony don't seem to listen to us at the moment. I am optimistic for the future:smileywink:
