    Hi to all !!

    First of all , sorry for my english.
    i have a notebook HP dv4253ea. A few days ago i installed vista home premium 32 bit. I have downloaded the drivers for quick launch buttons from the official site of HP. I installed them and when i go to the device manager , everything is ok.It saws me that i have quick launch buttons. The same is happening when i go to the control panel --> add programms. It saws that i have quick launch buttons software installed.

    BUT.... i have no rocket icon at the task bar , as i have with XP , so i can change the quick launch buttons. i.e. i want when i press the DVD button to open inter video dvd and when i press the notes to open media player.

    Have quick launch buttons worked with vista to anyone of you or it is worhtless that i try 2 days?? If yes, can you say me the way ?

    thank you for all guys!! :)
