Here is the solution :
delete the file : programfiles\sony\utilities\isb untility\isbmgr.exe
or simply search for the isbmgr.exe and delete it.
If system said "File can not be deleted - Access Denied" Simply restart laptop in SAFE MODE (Usually using F8 key) and delete the file.

And that´s it,now just enjoy the battery time without any warning...

Best Regards

I wondered what the 'isb utility' was for, does it serve any other purpose does anybody know?

I ask only because I have done a clean install of XP Pro and didn't install the isb utility, however everything seems to function properly and I seem to have all the original Vaio functions (hotkeys etc) so I'm just curious.

Tells you how many cycles the battery has used, how long it has left (running time and percentage)
