Problem with my pc drivers.

Hello guys and ladies :slight_smile:

 

Recently i reintalled windows 7 on my Vaio pc. When i tried to install the drivers i had some problems some of them are missing or they are not installed correctly ? For example FN Keys,  i couldnt find the drivers, also the driver for the " Base System Device "...  I downloaded the drivers from the sony website for windows 7. Any ideas how i can solve that kind of problems ?

 

OS: Windows 7 Home premium 64-bit

System Model: VGN-FW41E_H

Hello again :slight_smile:

 

The link for the " Base System Device" helped alot.

 

However, i didnt manage to fix the Fn Keys... i follow the instruction in video but nothing.

After the video from youtube  i tried others solutions from the internet and still it doesnt work. Like to check in services , to install the drivers with another order or other drivers with a spesific order.

I found two sony  firmware extension parser device driver.  the first had exe file but the second it didnt had... How i install the second one ?

 

Also, i noticed that some key sequence like alt+shift ( keyboard language) , or alt+shift+esc (  task manager ) , or the TAB key doesnt do anything when i type or when i use the browser... I connect the keyboard from my dekstop pc and all worked fine. I checked the settings and are all ok .Driver or Hardware problem ?

 

Should i return to Vista OS or it can worked with Windows 7.

 

Thanks for your tine and sorry for my english :slight_smile:
