    Like others got myself a new Vaio VGN-Z26gn but have some issues and would like advice:

    Running Windows Vista Business SP1

    1) Loaded MS Office Pro 2003 from disks from old laptop. All installed ok but now every time I launch an MS Office App eg Word, Excel etc it asks me to accept the EULA every time.

    2) Got lots of freebies when I bought the laptop including a sony vgp-bms55 bluetooth mouse. But when I go Start>Control Panel>Bluetooth Devices>Bluetooth Settings to enable the laptop to discover Bluetooth devices I keep getting "an error occurred whilst Windows was saving your settings" and it won't let me allow Bluetooth discoverability. Reboots etc have not done anything to assist.

    3) We have a new Samsung (LA22A450) tv which we use to hook up our laptops using VGA cables. Our old Dell and HP work fine but the Vaio is not connecting properly. We have managed to a connection but the PC settings windows and 'check the signal cable' message remain on the screen. We are using a Vaio Z series docking station.

    Any advice/assistance much appreciated.
    :)
