    Hello,

    just downgraded from vista to xp. everything is working except for the s buttons. whenever i try to launch it i get "you can't launch" error. Has anyone found a fix to this or are the s buttons simply non-functional on xp?

    i have the vgn-sz483n. any help would be great. cheers!

    I have installed the following: setting utility series, sony shared library, sony utilities DLL, vaio control center, vaio event service, vaio HDD protection, vaio power management, wireless switch setting utility, and protector suite ql.

    Am I missing something thats required for it to run properly?
