Windows 7: Sony VAIO VPCEG series 32 Bit Driver Needed !

Hi,



I formatted my VAIO VPCEG2AEN laptop with Win 7 Ultimate 32 Bit which originally came with Home 64 bit.

The problem now is I am not able to find any 32 bit drivers.

What can I do, PLEASE HELP!

Hi there
Try fiddling around on THIS site (Sony Asia)


Support for VPCEH15EG : E Series (VPCE) : VAIO™ Notebook : Sony Asia Pacific

(Ok that's my model) but yours should work -- if you can't find the EXACT same one try one that's similar. Sony won't change drivers for every possible piece of hardware -- a lot of these will work on most models of a similar series. Usually it's just the screen and video that's different.

Forget trying to find anything sensible on European or US sony sites. Fortunately the Asia site is in English.

Hi jimbo45,

Thanks for the reply.
I have already searched for drivers on my laptop's support page but only 64 bit drivers are available there.

Problem is, I need 32 bit

Hi there
Your laptop is almost identical to the one I'm using currently.

did you click the dropdown on the site --seems all the drivers are there too

(try a couple -- I don't know which drivers you are looking for in particular but Windows will load 99% of the drivers when you install it -- probably only the card reader and may be wifi and lan might be missing).

cheers

Hi,
Yes ive tried this.
When I select any 32 bit OS from the drop down only software patches are available for download NOT the drivers.
THAT is the problem! Only 64 bit drivers are available for download there.

Hi there
what is the piece of kit you need the driver for.

Windows 7 32 bit will probably install just fine on your machine in any case just out of the box. You might have trouble with a webcam but nearly everything else should work.

cheers

I need to install drivers to run bluetooth, lan, wifi.
Audio video are working for now.
