Installing NVIDIA Driver error

I recently did a re-installment of windows 7 64bit on my sony vaio vpcf1, and when I try to install the graphics driver I get that "found no compatible hardware blah blah" error. Im stuck with that standard VGA graphics driver. I tried to run as admin and such stuff but nothing worked so far. Help lol

Do you have any idea what GPU you have?

Try this if you haven't already:
NVIDIA DRIVERS 296.10WHQL

Apparently drivers from NVIDIA 29X.XX and above are buggy.
