    Can someone tell me where I get the original VAIO wallpaper on the recover cd. I have done a clean install (Upgrade to Pro) on my new FS and really liked the wallper that came with it? Pretty much everything else was on the cd's but can't find these.

    Thanks.

    Jake,

    If you give me your email address, I'd be glad to send it to you. It's a 3+meg bitmap file.

    I did a clean install as well, but luckily I remembered to backup the wallpaper. [ :D]

    Has anyone figured out how to restore the original screensaver or is that just wishful thinking?

    I have the VAIO Nature screensaver but I don't think you guys want it. After I installed it my firewall prompted to connect to the internet, so there could be a security risk.

    I had to trash it.

    Sorry I don't have the screen saver, I just had the original VAIO blue wallpaper.

    If you need that I'd be happy to send it. Let me know?
