    Ok hopefully someone can help me out. Through my MSDN account ive been running windows 7 ultimate since late july on my laptop. I used a tutorial on this forums that allowed all functions to work correctly but the problem i have now is battery life... I get almost 20 minutes the most on a full charge. With vista i would get full life. The battery starts of saying hour and half left but the percentage drops every minute. Hopefully someone can give me a point in the right direction regarding this issue. Like maybe 7 drivers. I dont understand why sony says this laptop cant take 7.
