My VPCEB34G4E isnt listed there? I tried another model but when I tried to install a driver its not supported.

Its really difficult to find these drivers. (btw I checked but Europe drivers because I live in the netherland but nothing to find.)

I could not find any Reference to that Model either ... Could you check the numbers again it seems to be to long ...

Dubbel check (VPCEB3G4E) - I installed the the following driver on Support for VPCEB34EN : E Series (VPCE) : VAIO? Laptop & Computer : Sony India
- Chipset driver
- Graphics driver (this fixed the resolution)
- Marvel ethernet driver (this fixed the ethernet, now connected to cable) The wireless drigver was already installed but I cannot connect to a wireless network it doesnt show anything - Also I don´t see any button on my laptop to switch on or something..

The following drivers are still showing up in device manager:
- Base System-Device
- PCI Simple Communications-controller

Note: Windows update also helped to vanish one driver

Also the Base System-device is in device manager. Other driver also vanish after windows update.

But most important need to get WiFi working.. Which couldnt find network

Base System Device = Card Reader

PCI Simple Communications-controller = Intel Management Engine

Download the Following Software ...


Sony Shared Library


Setting Utility Series


Then check that your Function Keys are working

Yes thats correct, I saw the Intel Management Engine in the Windows update.

After installing hotkeys working!

Ok, Can I install the MS card driver to get rid of the Base System Device or is it no problem..

And how about the WiFi, really strange. Do you think I need to switch something on..

If you do not want the Driver for the Base System Device then do not Install ...


Now for the Wireless does it show in the Device Manager ?


Is there a switch for the Wireless on your laptop ?


Does the Function Keys enable the Wireless?

 

[Donbrasi]

I already see it there is a slide to switch the WiFi on,

Its best to have al the drivers working right? I tried the card reader then..
