    I've never had the tosiba stack ask me to purchase a license version, but then again, I don't use it very often. Did dell have an explanation as to why you needed to purchase the license? Did you call the specialized XPS Support?

    The toshiba stack is just a driver. I don't get why you might have to purchase it.

    The microsoft stack leaves much to be desired. I had a problem with it constantly dropping signal. I eventually found the toshiba stack somewhere but it works much better hahaha, sorry that's not much help but just know someone somewhere has been in a similar situation. maybe try to reinstall the toshiba stack off of the dell drivers website.

    edit: this is on a e1505

    Yep, I think it's kind of wierd too and I did use the XPS support.Initially they were not familiar that it had the Toshiba stack at all.I have since did a system restore and things seem back to normal with no msg yet.Hopefully it remains this way.fingers crossed
