I have a SONY Vaio VGN-SZ18GP laptop ,they may use the same oem battery.Get more vgp bps2 battery information from the internet.

I have never known a battery to have a driver. There are firmware updates available to the computer that can often help with battery issues.
http://esupport.sony.com/US/perl/select-system.pl?DIRECTOR=DRIVER this is for support on US only. If it is a japanese computer you must go to sony japan online for support. They should have firmware and drivers available there also. Hope this helps!!

Hi sailor285,

Here is a website address that has the battery that you need for less than $80 US.
