Hi!
I reciently buy a new Vaio VGN-C2S/H, but i have a problem, i´ve got some expensive external things like Audiocard with no Vista drivers available, i have been looking in the website, but i cannot find XP drivers for my notebook.
Any Idea of where can i find them?.

Thanks

Hi pbl4845 and welcome to Club Vaio.

Sony do not support XP on the C2-Series Vaios. You will have to use the Preinstalled XP Drivers and the Preinstalled XP Utilities for the VGN-C1S/H Downloadable from HERE

Make sure you create at least two sets of Recovery Discs - you will have to return your Vaio to its Vista configuration if you wish to make a warranty claim.

I have been taking a look on the web, and all is ok, but i have a doubdt about the graphics.

-VGN-C2S/H:
Graphic Card Full Name Intel® Graphics Media Accelerator 950
Producer Intel®
Comments 128MB maximum shared with Main Memory with Intel® Dynamic Video Memory Technology 3.0

-VGN-C2S/H:
Graphic Card Full Name Intel® Graphics Media Accelerator 950 with Total Available Graphics Memory of 224MB
Producer Intel®

I suppose it wil work....anyone have tested it???

Thanks for the reply. Because i like the computer and i will not want to give it back to the shop.

PD: Please Sony Corp. be a little clearer about this.

I think you will find it is exactly the same Intel chipset including the Intel Graphics Media Accelerator 950.

XP and Vista handle the memory management differently - Vista can allocate more system memory.
