    Hi,

    I was wondering which (*Out of the list below) Sony TZ 190N/B Utilities are IMPORTANT to install after performing a clean install with Vista Home Premium?

    Do I really need to install all of these?

    Here is the list:

    - Battery Care Function
    - Battery Checker
    - HDD Protection Utility (is this for the standard HDD? I have the Flash SSD?)
    - Peripheral Device and Storage Media Restriction
    - Infineon TPM Profesional Package
    - Sony Video Shared Library
    - VAIO Control Center
    - VAIO Power Management
    - VAIO Status Monitor

    It depends what you intend to use or not.

    Despite what dr.pratik posted, I use the 1st and 4th, as well as most of the others.
