    Hi All...

    I have just purchased a new Sony Vaio VGN-FW23G laptop..
    Removed Vista and installed XP with SP3..

    All appears to be working well, all drivers are installed and i have installed the sony notebook utilities from the US FW190 support page.

    the Fn sound button works but i want to enable the Fn Hibernation button.
    I can't find a program to configure this feature.. any ideas ??

    One other thing i noticed is that the sony notebook control device in device manager is Microsoft v5.1.2600.2180.. i can't seem to install the newer driver.

    the only other driver i have for this is the Vista Sony Firmware Extension Parser driver and it won't install.

    Can anybody provide help with this problem ??
