    Hi,

    I've installed Vista 64bit on my XPS, which I love by the way (got it last Wednesday).

    I Installed Quickset from the m1330 64bit driver page but the FN+F8 function does not work I can see the little symbols but nothing happens. I have to use the windows display settings to change to conected screens. Numlock doesn't work either but i don't care about that. Brightness, sleepmode and battery gauge works just fine, but I really could use the switching between displays function. Does anybody know how I can make it work?

    Thanks

    It sounds like youre missing a driver... I'd recommend uninstalling Quickset and trying again... Any interface related drivers are important for these things.
