Knots

What about knots?

A knot is an intentional complication in cordage which may be practical or decorative, or both. Practical knots are classified by function, including hitches, bends, loop knots, and splices: a hitch fastens a rope to another object; a bend fastens two ends of a rope to each another; a loop knot is any knot creating a loop; and splice denotes any multi-strand knot, including bends and loops. A knot may also refer, in the strictest sense, to a stopper or knob at the end of a rope to keep that end from slipping through a grommet or eye.

Windows 7 64-bit Driver Info

Windows 7 Logo.

Pinky's original OS was Windows Vista 32-bit. The OS was upgraded to Windows 7 64-bit and SP3 was applied. Many drivers were automatically applied, but some devices remained driverless. Officially, SONY won't offer Win7 64b drivers for this model. The following drivers were tried and found operative. Note that they are experimental settings and may not work in all cases.

Sony Firmware Extension Parser

Needed for an unrecognized ACPI device. Used the file SODOTH-00228472-1040.exe from another model.

Synaptics Touchpad

A driver is needed to access some features of the touchpad. Downloaded directly from Synaptics website.

Update

The inertia setting was found to cause problems while dragging (it releases the object as you lift your finger from the touchpad), so it was deselected.

Graphics and Sound seems to be working Ok. Most other functions are operative, so I didn't install any other driver.

Note: Models used for reference: VGN-CR260FE, VGN-CR320E.
