Hello to you all.
I've started to mess around with my new SZ6, the first thing I did was to format the HD to install a Clean Windows Vista Business in my native language. So now the problems with drivers and etc begin.
So far what I could find on the European Vaio Support webpage is the:
- VAIO Smart Network 1.0 (The floating thing that manages all the Network connections)
- BIOS Update R0082S5
- Microsoft Hotfix Package KB939720 AND Microsoft Hotfix Package KB931812
And now I'm stuck...
I need the Nvidia Drivers that have to be from Sony, I need the Wireless WAN Modem, the MS reader, the Fingerprint reader and Trusted Platform Module (TPM) thing, Bluetooth, etc, etc, etc.
I know there are a LOT of posts regarding clean installations, but if any of you guys could help me out. I have the 3 DVD's of recovery, is there a way to "hack" them to extract the drivers?
Not wanting to turn this into a hate post, but our fellows in the states have what we should have as a support webpage (feel free to check it out) :USA Support.
I'm tempted to try those drivers myself, but I still have some hope that all of those are somewhere lost in here. If they, and if there is some sort of "readme" text so I could dive into and extract all the precious information that we all need.
I would love to turn this first post into a "help center" to all of you SZ6 owners, that are in the same situation.
So... Help?!
Thanks in Advanced, Pedro Pereira

EDIT:
Well.. Actually all the drivers are on the Recovery DVD 😃 Well, I'll let the post die around here, as it may... help others, or so I hope.
