I'd suggest ring back Sony support and tell them that your OS is Windows 7 - not Vista. Therefore, you need the upgraded VGA driver because the Vista driver is incompatible with Windows 7. Hope it all goes well. If my suggestion works for you, please do rate me. Thanks

Hi, I have installed win7 for my sony vaio fs660 and after 3 days of google drivers search i still luck the display adapter wrong :-( it is nvidia gf 6200 but the os see it as a standart vga adapter...

You're having problems with this driver because Windows 7 is not officially supported on your Sony Vaio. There's a way around this however.

1. Go here for Windows 7 32 bit video card driver for your computer: http://www.nvidia.com/object/win7-winvista-32bit-260.99-whql-driver.html

Or go here for Windows 7 64 bit video card driver for your computer: http://www.nvidia.com/object/win7-winvista-64bit-266.58-whql-driver.html

2. Select "Download".

3. Install the video card drivers. Restart computer when asked.

Good luck and thanks for using FixYa. Please post back if you have any difficulties.

I have the sony vaio SZ-360P and i installed windows 7 on. I try to search the web for the graphic driver but still nothing,and im trying to guess what kind of VGA I have so my question can u help with...

First the easiest way is to try to update the VGA (Display) Drivers automatically from internet. Right Click My Computer and go to Properties - then Device Manager. Look for VGA Display Adapters (Drivers) in the list. Right Click the Display Adaptor and Choose update Drivers automatically. This will update the Drivers automatically from windows update and install the latest compatible drivers (if available).

Secondly, Sony Vaio SZ-360P is compatible with Windows Vista. Hence, there is a great possibility the VGA Drivers for Vista would work. So, download the Vista Drivers and try them.
Good Luck!
Hope this helps!

This makes me think that there are problems with your VGA drivers. I tried to locate win7 drivers for your laptop but there are not available from Sony. Your vga model is nvidia geforce go 7400. Here is the official link to choose and download the drivers from nvidia's website. In case this doesn't work, try the following procedure:
1) Download the latest desktop driver for Windows 7 and the card that is closest to yours from NVIDIA's website.
2) Extract the installer to C:\NVIDIA - Close installer after extraction. It is not needed now any longer.
3) Find NV_DISP.inf and open it in notepad.
4) Look at the models of cards listed. Choose to edit one that is closest to yours.
5) Open device manager. Right click on standard vga or your video card and choose properties. Details tab. Change drop down to hardware ids. The second line down is of interest here.
6) In the .inf, scroll to the bottom [Strings] section. Again, look for most similar desktop model. Change the beginning part to match what you found in last step 5. For example:
NVIDIA_DEV.0421.01 = "NVIDIA GeForce 8500 GT"
and you have 8400M GT, change it to
NVIDIA_DEV.0426.01 = "NVIDIA GeForce 8400M GT"
7) Now look up higher in the .inf and search for the number you edited. In this case, "0421" will lead you to this line:
%NVIDIA_DEV.0421.01% = Section010, PCI\VEN_10DE&DEV_0421
8) In this line, edit like this and add your particular string from step 5:
%NVIDIA_DEV.0426.01% = Section010, PCI\VEN_10DE&DEV_0426&SUBSYS_9016104D
Note the changes made between step 7 and this in bold,underline,italic. Do similar for your particular hardware string.
9) Save the .inf (ctrl+s)
10) Right click on standard vga in device manager. Click update driver software. Browse my computer. Let me pick from a list. Have disk. Browse. Find the .inf you just edited and double click on it. Hit ok so it installs.
11) Reboot and rerun the .exe from step 1 until completion, to install the NVIDIA control panel.
In case you have Intel accelarator too, leave the Intel device alone.

In case of a problem or clarification, don't hesitate to post.

Thanks and regards
