one option is to rollback to XP
This laptop (fujitsu)... well actually it's works, but `mine'
we deal with remote fuel/oil monitoring in the mines here in Oz
We found that too many dedicated, expensive and in some cases impossible to replace bits of gear plain just dont work under win7, even in emulation mode
Luckily the fujitsu actually comes with a `rollback' to xp option, so all of works new laptops are now `7less' and didnt cost us a cent (apart from my time in having to do it)
(personally I liked my old panasonic toughbook a lot better- it took a hiding and keeps on going, this new `executive' thing feels soooo flimsy)
and the worst thing is - they come in a `satin' slippery finish and dont come with a handle either- I nearly dropped this new one twice and Ive only had it 4 weeks....
