    Hi

    I have a pcg-8v1m for my son and it has av buttons such as eject, play, stop, rewind next to the keyboard. I have checked the laptop support and the downloads are primarily for Windows XP, some Vista but hardly any Windows 7.

    I have managed to source Windows 7 drivers for most of the hardware, eg wifi, card reader etc but not for the buttons on the laptop. I suspect this is some Sony written software. I can see the one to use for XP but not for Windows 7. Anybody any ideas to point me in the right direction ?

    thanks
