    I was able to get a copy of Vista Business from school and have decided to go back to Vista. From what I understand the software/drivers available on the Sony Support site should work for the Business Edition? Can someone clarify this please?

    After I downloaded .rar file I received the following text file when trying to extract:

    This disc contains a "UDF" file system and requires an operating system
    that supports the ISO-13346 "UDF" file system specification.

    Can anyone shed some light on what I need to do to burn the install disc? thanks.

    Install ImgBurn(Freeware) or UltraISO

    1. Load Program.
    2. Switch to 'Write and Verify' mode.
    3. Insert Disc in Burner.
    4. Select Image to burn.
    5. Click 'Write' button.


    EDIT >> If thats what you're asking. ImgBurn is a great free program from the same guys that developed DVD Decrypter

    Or w/ UltraISO, you can extract the img/iso files to destop or a mounted vital drive and install from there.....
    Finished!
