hello, following several other posts from similar vaio vista installs i manage to get almost everything working on my s480p, this is what i did:
1- installed windows vista ultimate edition
2- updated windows vista with windows update
3- Sony Shared Library
ftp://download.sony.com/US/pc/SOASSL-A1298203-US.EXE
4- Sony Utilities
ftp://download.sony.com/US/pc/SOASNU-01298604-US.EXE
5- Sony Notebook Control
ftp://download.sony.com/US/pc/SOAOTH-00445800-US.EXE
6-Vaio Event Service (for control the Fn function)
ftp://download.sony.com/US/pc/SOAVES-01302701-US.EXE
at this point all FN keys were working, including the brightness key
7- TouchPad
ftp://download.sony.com/US/pc/ALDOTH-01347903-US.EXE
to be able to use the scrolling from the sony touchpad utility
At this point almost everything is working. The only thing i couldn't do is to make my windows recognize the memory stick properly. It shows up on the device manager as a mass storage controller without driver.
I've tried the memory stick update from sony's website, but it didnt really change anything.
Can anyone help me with this?
