    I have installed 64bit vista ultimate and cannot get the fn + screen brightness keys to work. Also in device manager there are 2 "system base device" that require drivers but i don't know what they are!

    Any help very much appreciated.

    Bit more info, when i try to install easy display manager (the one for vista from the samsung website) it install then a box pops up and says "StartService failure! : unknown 1275" the a second box "unable to install driver".

    I assume this is just a problem with the 64 bit os not accepting the driver, but is there a work around?
