Right after I installed Vista I knew something was wrong. For instance, my Treo/Palm software wasn't compatible. So I tried to locate my XP disk to reverse the change and couldn't find it.

Turns out that the Vista update I bought (a Home Premium version from Costco) isn't totally compatible with the Vaio series because of Sony customizations that are needed.

It's been frustrating - but so far I've been able to work around the problem. However, you raise a great point. It's worth another trip to the (shudder) garage to look for that box and try to find the disk!

Thanks again -
