  • Nice work Builtbybosche. All of driver is ok? ex. special function key.

  • Thanks mclaw77. Yes Sir, I went to Sony Vaio website via Google and to support for VGN-TX2HP and then downloaded original utils. Then I unzipped file and put then on in order down the list. I had to run in Windows XP compatibility mode (right click Application icon, then properties, then compatibilty mode. I think they have to be in order. And it worked. Fn keys and front volume keys. Power management too works. Much better OS my friend.

  • Thanks Builtbybosche. Are you know we can change hard disk from HDD to SSD in Sony VGN-TX? If we can, how can i do it? I think i will change OS in windows7 home premium.

  • Hi mclaw77. I have heard rumours about swapping HD for SSD but I'm afraid I don't know much about it I'm sorry. I only half use my 80GB HD and store data on a very small external HD (Freecom XXS 320GB). I can plug this into PS3 and watch films and music. I bought official Windows 7 OS, but my friend downloaded good version from torrent sites and it works as good as mine. I have dropped my TX PC 3 times onto hard floor by accident and it still works. Such a good machine built by a master in Japan

  • Hi Builtbybosche.

    This is very interesting for me. I had to install Ubuntu onto my TX2HP because XP stopped working. The DVD recovery disk wouldn't work because the drive reverted to a CD ROM and couldn't read the disk; this was also why I didn't install Vista from the DVD.

    My Question: Was this an upgrade or a fresh install? If it was a fresh install, how did you get the DVD to be recognised?

    Thanks
