I recently purchased a Vaio P Series. Windows Vista's performance is a big disappointment especially when viewing video full screen. Windows XP and Windows 7 Beta are alternatives I am currently considering. What problems have you encountered with the XP install. do all of the proprietary buttons still work correctly? I'm very concerned about the Sony PSP/PS3 like 30 second start interface for quick access to movies, music and the internet. Does it still function as it should?
Only the backlight cannot adjust by using Fn+F5 (hotkey)but u can adjust the backlight level in VAIO Power managment but error message may appear but it not affect to system (small matter, better than poor performance)
On the other hand, I have finish chinese ver XP installation guide for VAIO P and share it to all, btw, I'll translate the installation guide to Eng and share to u later, sorry to keep u waiting and late reply from me...
