    Hi
    I received my Vaio FW490 yesterday, and after running a multitude of different windows updates attempted to play a Blu Ray DVD (Benjamin Button). Win Dvd (I think), opened up and the menu for the movie appeared. I was able to watch the movie, but unfortunately, it would not fill up my 16.4 screen. It actually opened up on the top left hand side of my screen and was no larger than about 35-40% of the screen. I looked for options in win dvd, but couldn't find any that worked. The resolution on the PC is set to the default (1920 x 1080). I did notice that when the dvd app started that a message appeared saying that windows basic colors were being used due to some display problems. BTW, I have the font size adjusted to 125%. The PC is running Windows Vista 64 Home premium. Any suggestions?
