Posted by l_norbu on April 16, 2006, 9:33 am Please log in for more thread options I recently reinstalled winxp on my sony vaio vgn-s58gp laptop. And now my sound does not work. I checked my drivers and they are all installed. I get a beep when the computer starts. Furthermore, my pci driver is missing. I have downloaded drivers from the sony website but they do not seem to help. How can I fix these problems. Thanks, LN Posted by dellboy on April 17, 2006, 8:48 am Please log in for more thread options show/hide quoted text >I recently reinstalled winxp on my sony vaio vgn-s58gp laptop.

After identifying your chipset, find the chipset driver that matches and install it.

In order to have all your Vaio hardware working you need to install this files. you can download them from the vaiolink website. After that you install the chipset driver and then the UAA HDA class driver. in case you use WLAN, you should also download intel wlan driver and configuration software. the intel wlan software is more userfriendly and also connects quicker to an AP. Also have a look a Notebook Hardware Control on http://www.pbus-167.com/chc.htm Regards, Martin ** Vaio S3HP.SW1 -- Please use reply-to address for mails.
