When you buy through our links, we may get a commission. It may be big, but it's not ungainly and it makes the most of its increased footprint by packing in a full HD display, an immense amount of storage and a fast processor. Strengths Despite its colossal size, Sony has managed to prevent the AR51SU looking like some uncouth heaving brute by adding a sleek silver band around its middle, that pleasantly tapers away at the back and means your eyes aren't drawn to its sheer size.
It also makes incredibly good use of the increased surface area to pack in a gorgeous inch glossy X-black screen which offers intense colours and great contrast, although at the expense of reflectivity, so you'll need to position it where there are no bright lights behind you.
The screen has a native resolution of 1,x1, pixels, giving it enough pixels to display full p video, so you'll get the full benefit of watching movies from the Blu-ray drive. Or at least you will in theory as the bundled WinDVD BD software proved a little unstable under Vista, but this should be fixable with an update.
Its dimensions aren't the only thing big about the AR51SU, either. Inside, there are two GB drives, giving you half a terabyte of storage space accessible as a single volume thanks to built-in RAID support. Performance is another area where it asserts its stature -- its 2. Games performance was equally impressive with a 3DMark06 score of 4, that could rival a desktop system. If you fancy hooking it up to a large screen telly to enjoy HD content, then there's an HDMI port making it a lounge-friendly companion.

Please can someone offer any help? PS: I have also tried compatability mode etc. Tuesday, May 18, AM. Hi stuparty, As Rick mentioned, all the drivers are provided by the manufacturer. Wednesday, May 19, AM. Microsoft does not write any drivers or utility software for third party hardware. Sony is the one to publish updated software if they choose to. Look for a Sony forum.
