    Dear all,

    I wonder if you can help with the following problem. For whatever reason, I bought the the TX2HP/W in Germany (German kbd + software) and have since re-installed the English version of XP-Pro with a complete reformat of the recovery partition.
    I realize that was not the smartest thing to do at the time, but I was in Germany and had no access to much of the information I found out afterwards: first create recovery disks etc. :confused:

    Well, here is the problem. I am not using much of the software provided in the original package, but I would certainly like to use the feature of playing DVDs without booting Win-XP.

    So here's my question: Can someone *PLEASE* :eek: be kind enough to provide the just the missing software to activate this missing feature? My email address is "[email protected]". From what I have read so far, I need at least the "Instant Mode" application, but I may also need the associated DVD-Player, CD picture viewer as well? Is that correct?

    Very many thanks,

    Ioannis
