    Hi,

    Appreciate your help on the following two issues I have with my X200s:

    1/ volume keys: up, down and mute are not working. They worked before windows downloaded a bunch of updates after the first install of vista
    2/ i can't get the middle button of the trackpad to open links as well as allow me to scroll pages. It only does the latter.

    I am running vista business 32bit with the latest Lenovo drivers

    Thanks

    I read somewhere that the X200s volume keys can be controlled via software. Anybody knows how I can do that to get them to work again?

    2/ Fixed: in Trackpoint settings choose "neither" under "choose scrolling or magnifying Function". Click apply and reboot. The middle button of the trackpoint should now allow you to scroll and to open a new tab on your web explorer.

    Any help on 1/ will be much appreciated.
