Jitway Posted April 9, 2007 Posted April 9, 2007 Run Belarc Advisor on it. It may not have a sony sound chipset. This tool will tell you what the audio chipset is. Then you can search for the driver. Belarc Advisor
SF2MJ Posted April 10, 2007 Author Posted April 10, 2007 (edited) I used the belarc program and it came up with multi media none and display none.I can't figure this out.It must have some kind of sound chip. Edited April 10, 2007 by SF2MJ
SF2MJ Posted April 10, 2007 Author Posted April 10, 2007 I just spoke to Sony they said that i need to order a recovery cd from them.I can't download the files i need from any web site.They want to charge me $65.00 for the cd.Anybody know if i CAN download the recovery cd for a SONY VAIO VGN-B88GP laptop?.
Jitway Posted April 10, 2007 Posted April 10, 2007 Ya right. Sony support is trying to screw ya. The drivers are out there you just need to find what chipset it is. You could try getting Everest Ultimate. It gives you the most information out there for your computer. With a little searching you just might find it for free.
ken_cinder Posted April 10, 2007 Posted April 10, 2007 Uses a Soundmax chipset designed just for Sony. I can usually find just about anything, and I can tell you this.......you're screwed. Not gonna find any drivers besides what's provided by Sony, and if the stuff on their website won't work, you'll have to pay for that disc.When will people learn that Sony flockING SUCKS!?
