Base System Device Drivers

[welshbilly]

Hi
Sony VAIO VGN-FW31E Laptop

Just did clean install from Vista to Windows 7 Professional.

Amongst several problems that I am working through the latest one is this.

Error in Device Manager: Base System Device

PCI\VEN_1180&DEV_0592&SUBSYS_9035104D&REV_12
PCI\VEN_1180&DEV_0592&SUBSYS_9035104D
PCI\VEN_1180&DEV_0592&CC_088000
PCI\VEN_1180&DEV_0592&CC_0880

Have tried Sony Vaio website support section but can't see anything related to this. ANyone got any ideas?

Thanks...

same problem here

Hi,

I have a sony VGN-FW36GJ laptop pre-installed with vista home premium 64 bit which is now upgraded to windows 7 ultimate 64 bit.

Before doing clean install I checked sony.com for updated support and drivers download. Apparently, after complete installation everything seems alright except 'Base system Device' error.

Am unable to fix it though it's not causing any malfunction but error mark is shown in device manager.

Please help if you have any idea

cheers

Hi

I had the same problem after a clean install of win 7 to a acer 2930 laptop i found it was the card reader (Sd, xd etc) once i had downloaded the updated driver from acer website & installed, base system device disappeared from device manager. Hope this helps.

@steve208 ----> thank you mate!

I did a bit of googling and found Ricoh® MS Memory Card Reader/Writer Driver from Ricoh® MS Memory Card Reader/Writer Driver from Sony eSupport - VGN-FW378J/B - Software Updates & Drivers which was causing 'base system device' error device manager. After setup and restarting device error was fixed. Now my memory card is functional.

Cheers!

32bit version

Hi,

I have a Sony Vaio VGN-FW51JF and installed Windows 7 32 bit and I also get the 'Base system' device not recognized.

Has anyone also found the 32 bit version for this cardreader? The Sony Vaio website says the Memory Card Reader Writer Driver is a 32/64 driver but it only contains the 64bit version:
Vaio : Sony Europa

Hey guys, help me please!!
I'm having the same problem... "Base System Device" does not install!! I tried many drivers and doesn't work.
I have a Vaio VGN-NW125J!
Someone knows what to do?

@rranzani. Can't find your model # on either the US or UK site, so try going to the device manager>right click on base system device>properties>details tab>drop down menu>select hardware id. Copy and Paste the hardware string and we should be able to find a 64 bit driver for your system. Thanks. Fabe
Also it's a good idea to start your own thread especially when the thread your posting on has been green check marked as resolved. You'll get more responses.JFYI.

Chip Set: Ricoh R5C832 Driver Version: A00 - Free software downloads and software reviews - CNET Download.com

Hello, I have a VGN-NS295J and I have a Windows 7 Ultimate x64.

Completely frustrated. My USB ports aren't reading my mouses and using this touchpad is killing me. The reason why I'm here is because ever since they started messing up a "Base System Device" appeared on my device manager. So I tried uninstalling/reinstalling the devices and updating drivers, but none of that has worked. And the support page provided by sony isn't really much of a help, just a big headache.

Can anyone help me?
