You need to install the Vista Utilties for your model (if they exist). I can't check for you if they are available because the Vaio-Link website is down again. Poxy Error again!

I'll have a look tomorrow.

Ah - it's working slowly this evening!!

Go Here: -

http://support.vaio.sony.eu/computing/vaio/downloads/updates/index.aspx?l=en_GB&m=VGN-A517S&os=7

And install in order:

Sony Ulils DLL
Sony Shared Library
Vaio Event Service
Setting Utility Series

You will probably need a few more for other things - like Wireless Switch Setting Utility if you use wireless.
