I would like to add, that it is not necessary to have Windows installed to make the switch work on a VAIO Z notebook. It is sufficient to boot from a XP cd and run the install until it blue screens. A soft reboot via the power switch is going to make the switch LED work and it is possible to use the nvidia card. As i dont think there is any special driver on a win xp sp2 cd, it might be possible get the correct behaviour with bios or acpi magic ??
