    Hey All,

    OK, I have a CF-19 that I just received, and I like it, but have an issue.

    When in tablet mode, I can not rotate the screen into portrait mode (landscape only - works OK in laptop mode). If I disable the Display Rotation Utility, it works, but my wireless LAN is now not working. Any ideas? Running Vista Premium Home.

    Have you right-clicked on the settings and played around with that?

    Oh yes, for what seems like hours. Also driver reinstalls, the works. A search reveals that I'm not the only one. ...JMM

    OK, Looks like I'll have to get an original CD set. Also, in the mean time, I just kill the app in the Task manager and it all works correctly.

    Funny, in all my years working on computers, these Toughbooks are the most finicky with drivers. Easiest to open up and work on, though.
