I have a Toshiba M400 running Vista RC1 Build 5600. I downloaded the Rotation
Utlity but it still does not work. When I switch my PC to a teblet mode, the
display stays at Landscape even though the Rotation Utility is set to move it
to a portrait.
The only way to work around it is to use the Vista Microsoft Mobility tool
which allows me to rotate the screen manualy.
Any suggestions?

the Toni. I'm not an expert, but I can tell you I also have or M 400, with
Vista Business Edition (final release) and after installing drivers for
trouble pc from toshiba , all work well, even rotation. So maybe it's RC1 the
problem ?

Thanks Taliesin. I tried so many times to install the rotation and other
drivers but no luck. I will wait unitl the final Vista software arrives.

Tony, go here: http://www.csd.toshiba.com/cgi-bin/t..._sc_modSel.jsp
and then select the M400 in the right pane. Then use Search with Ask Iris
(R) on "Vista drivers" without the quotes. You'll get 34 results, including
the top one which is "Windows Vista and Toshiba computers - drivers, BIOS,
and other information" which is good reading material so you know what's
going on.

In the listed downloads (below the above) are various drivers for Vista, all
released by Toshiba in mid-December. Make sure to note the release date and
version of each, so you get the latest ones. Also keep in mind, if you're
still running Vista RC1 you might just want to wait for the actual Vista
release.

There may not be one released yet, Tony. I don't have that particular
Tablet PC, so I haven't tried it, but you might look at what they're calling
the "value-added pack." 8-)

Remember, you're using Vista, and most, if not all, manufacturers will not
be issuing complete drivers for the new operating system until probably
after the public release later this month. Is it basically not time yet,
and there's not much we can do about it until the OEMs come up with new
drivers. At this point, it is expected things aren't going to work fully
yet. When in doubt, contact the Toshiba support section and see what they
have to say.
