    Hi guys,

    I just received my M1530. I think it has the Samsung screen but I'm not too concerned. I'm also happy to answer any questions prospective buyers have about this laptop.

    Anyway, it came with Vista Home Premium, so I wiped that to get the crapware out. I used the Dell disk and reinstalled Vista along with relevant drivers. There's a hitch though, the touch sensitive media keys (along with eject) do not work, nor do they light up. They did work before I reinstalled.

    Is there a specific driver for these keys?

    Tom.

    I had Quickset installed.

    I rebooted a few times and they started working, odd.
