QUOTE(maxizanc @ May 4 2009, 04:31 PM) It is a windows settings. Go to control panel > power option > Choose a plan > Change plan settings > Set the brightness. But i don't recommend changing settings of "Power Saver" plan. Added you name onto the list. Sorry to hear about your SZ. But why you ordered online for TP? The package for TP is better than Sony STyle store? in Sony Style Store you can get free RAM upgrade + MS Office Home And Student Full version. That's what i heard from Sony Style BTS. Thanks. I am not in Mal and only will be back in July. Ordered it so that it can be delivered to a friend who will bring over for me.

QUOTE(maxizanc @ May 8 2009, 03:25 PM) Seems like there is no stock for the TP3G due to its discontinuation. TP4G already out in the market. If you really want the TP3G, just have a call to Sony BTS @ 03-21449601. Maybe they can find any new stock somewhere. If have no choice but to buy the display set. But the price is remain RM3588. thanks mate.

Hi there
thanks for your info earlier. I fnally got my TP3. A white one with extra 2GB ram and Office home edition FREE!!! comes with McAfee trial for 3 mths... is this better than norton 360?
So far, just trying to figure out how use all the features using the remote. Its fun so far.. but u have to use windows media player if u wan to use the remote to control playback. I have loads of movies in RM.. *sigh* anywy to convert these to formats tat windows will take?
Also... i love to play karaoke.. but the media player cant access the audio pref using remote...
anyone know where i can learn more about TP3 ?
Thanks.
BTW.. i got a replacemnet for the spoilt charger... even after 11 months of use... noquestions asked!!!!

QUOTE(Miyabi @ May 31 2009, 05:56 PM) first of all, congratz on the purchase with aint bad free gift; and welcome to the VAIO thread. i'll just answer to the questions i know. 1. McAfee Antivirus: This av works well, but since it just trial, i would opt for free usage for personal use. Avira is good substitution for available AV nowadays. i dislike Norton since its memory hogs. 2. About converting movies, im not sure, its all rely on your processor power. to convert from high quality to rm i wouldn't think it take times to convert unless you care much about the quality of the end file convert. sorry i cant help much for TP3..perhaps you need gone thoroughly the manual provided and some research on google about it. Thanks or the reply. i have norton 360 on my SZ and i have heard thats it slows things down. SO prolly will stick with McAfee as they are offering 33% off ifi sign up for 2 years. AUD 175. viao manual ar not of much help.. sigh! looks lke i have to google

Happy New Year to all,
Been a long while since i last dropped in.
Pls help, am looking to buy the Viao X. ANy comments? ANy lag running Win7? On the extended Battery, i heard that it needs to be screwed on??
Bought a P23 some months back, its cool and portable but really small, strain to see words...getting old. and the mouse its not that great. SPeaker sound is very low, cant use it to listen to music.. hope the X sounds louder.
have not seen the physical machine yet .. in a 3rd world country right now.
appreciate comments. thanks

QUOTE(Miyabi @ Jan 14 2010, 11:14 AM) to summarize, the X series is actually the huge version of P series. its not lagging running WIn7, but with aero on, it have slightly poor performance. Thats the reason by default it has aero off on Windows 7. regarding the screw on, yes, you have to screw it by your finger to tighten the lock for the extended battery. its easily to do without the need of other tools rather than your finger. and as for speaker, dont expect it to be loud srsly especially on portable notebook. iit more or less the same like P but slightly better due to size of speaker use. HI Thanks for the info. just wondering what is aero?? any known faults or problems with the X? P23 running XP is bearable, better than p25 running vista. but i wanted chinese menu, so ended up changing to winxp chinese myself and voiding the warranty! sigh tahnsk in advance

QUOTE(hangy2k @ Jan 14 2010, 08:51 PM) dont think changing to winxp chinese will void your warranty, in fact sony does provide support of upgrading to other OS such as upgrading to windows 7..  i chnaged to winxp chinese using pasar malam disc!!!!

QUOTE(Miyabi @ Jan 14 2010, 11:35 PM) aero is glass look for your desktop appearance. it use some of graphic resources. Added on January 14, 2010, 11:39 pmso far, no faults and hopefully wont have any  changing os wont void the warranty, just they (sony) dont want you to mess with your pc like unable to type on keyboard (keyboard key change etc) which usually done by someone who is lack of knowledge on OS. the peeps at service center even told that someone mess up their keyboard setting after change the default OS and end up sending back the unit back to service center...lol oh cool.... when i did the chinese XP, had to go to the taiwan sonystyle site to download like 20 ot 30 drievrs, man.. after taht had to run them in sequence.... dont want to mess with it again..
