I’ve recently done a Clean XP install and I tell you, if you haven’t done it on your laptops, you really should consider. 

Everything is up and running except the Vaio Power Management.  Since I don’t have my recovery DVD with me, I dont have acess to the software and its not on Sony web site. 

Is there anyone that is willing to share the software for me to download?? :?

come on, anyone??

I’ve version 1.7 and will be glad to send you a copy. Please send me a pm with your email address and I shall forward it accordingly.

Ishii,

Thank you so much for sending me a copy of the program.  I much appreciate your kindness.  Now I’m finally happy with my S with the last piece in place.

I’ve had a pretty fortunate past couple of days on this forum, Ishii sent me this and Duff offered 512MB ram for a great price.  You guys are great!    :mrgreen:

You are most welcome. I am sure you will do the same for members alike.  :D

Hi guys,

Don’t suppose i could trouble one of you to send me the vaio power management utility as well please?

I have 1.3 installed currently and it really doesn’t seem to be operating quite right with regards to scaling cpu power when running on battery.

I’ll also drop you a PM.

Thanks.

Check you mail buddy.  :wink:

my power management is giving me lots of grief. It seems to be happily installed but has the most wacky profiles. Instead of laptop, dvd, presentation etc it just shows junk. I really don’t want to have to re-create all the profiles, but it looks like the only way as a reinstall didn’t help. Might just leave it :?

Hey guys,

I just did a clean install of XP Pro on my new S580 and in the process (since I didnt create recovery disks first) I lost the power management utility.

Does anyone have a copy they could share? It would be really appreciated as this functionality would really complete the system.

Thanks in advance for anyones help

It’s actually a scene from “The Sword of Doom.”
