Windows 7 - How do i unblock drivers for windows seven?

Hello can someone please help me I have a Sony Vios with WIndows Seven OS but I keep having issues with drivers being blocked ...how do I unblock the drivers or make it so that this does not keep happening?

Welcome to SevenForums Thenovice617!


Several things we need to help us help you:

1. Please fill in your system specs. What model Vaio? etc...
2. What do you mean by drivers blocked? Please elaborate.
3. Which drivers specifically?

There could be several reasons for this but the most likely is that you are trying to install an unsigned driver. (If the computer is on a corporate network or under the control of a domain, the admin may be blocking it, talk to them) or even AV software.

I would first check to see if there is a "real" Windows 7 driver for the device from the manufacturer.

But f you want to try to force the install. Search this site for "Install unsigned driver".

There are several options, some temporary, some permanent, I couldn't pick like the "perfect" solution to paste here, so just do the search.

If you don't think it's because of an unsigned driver, go into more detail about exactly what device, driver your installing and what the actual error messages are...

Im still kind of a novice..kind of were would I go to get the specs for it??

Post the model of your Vaio here...

Well its is saying driver blocked due to compatibility issues..in the meantime I will do a search ...I would like to find a permanent solution to this problem

As has already been asked, which driver(s)?

No its telling me its blocking em and not giving me a choice I will get you an error message in one sec
