Sony VAIO VGN-N21E/W - PROBLEM

post #1 of 2
Thread Starter 
Hi i just baught the above laptop and it works fine i just dont like all of the useless software that is taking up space on it! i tried reinstalling vista on it and when i did so i insaled the drivers on the c drive only to find that the memory stick duo icon didnt appear! there was an icon there but the sort of icon that appears when you dont have the correct software to open a file. the card slot did work though but the icon didnt. i have now pressed f10 and rerstored the pc to the factory settings with all of this usless stuff that i dont want again. i know this may seem like not much of a problem to alot of you but things like that just bother me.

So to conclude - I want my pc completley blank (with vista on it obviously) to install only the sofware i want and i want only the drivers with no factory software.

any help on how to acheive this would be most appreciated

thanks

Reinstall OS.
When the second bootup starts you will have to watch each installion.
if you don't want something installed eject the disc. it will cancel the install
and go to the next program install, OR
buy a new Vista Disc and download the install files you want to install.
If the Recovery Disc's install norton you won'y be able to get it off.
good luck
