Sony Vaio

Postby spyder » Sat May 20, 2006 2:55 am

Hello all.

I have a Sony Vaio V[color="Red"]xxxx [/color]. I have since formatted it, and re-installed my own OS. This model, like most of them now apparently, didn't come with [color="Red"]xxxx [/color] (an extra 5000円 for them I think). This didn't really worry me, as I don't like "package" stuff anyway.

The problem I do have though is about 50% of my function keys (volume, LCD Light, Zoom etc) don't work now.

I know exactly what I need to get it working, but it is availale not where on the Internet for Japanese models.

Basically I need the Sony [color="Red"]xxxx [/color]The process that this will add is [color="Red"]xxxx [/color] have found a few links, but nothing that has worked. I also found a link to the file on the SonyUS site, but as this is a Japanese model, the installation failed before it began.

SO....the reason I am posting here? Could some one with a [color="Red"]xxxx [/color] burn me a [color="Red"]xxxx [/color]OR rip the stuff I need and host [color="Red"]xxxx [/color]for me pleeasssee :) I am pretty sure it doesn't have to be the same model. Anything from around the same time should be fine. I bought it about 1 year ago.

If anyone can help, please add me to MSN (foody at tpg.com.au), or email me at the same address. It would be very much appreciated! I have another friend here in Tokyo who is also looking for the same thing, for the same notebook!

Alternatively if anyone can find a link already online that would be awesome!

Thanks in advance,

-Scott

SO....let me see if I have this straight. You don't want to pay 5000Y for the Sony disks you need, so you posted on the FG front page asking for someone to pirate it and send it to you in [SIZE="6"]Australia[/SIZE]?
