I have a Gateway P-173X FX Computer and I'm having similar. My volume won't work while in games, my wireless adapter stays on even if the switch is off, but heres the kicker, the bluetooth still goes on and off properly with the wireless switch.
This all occured after doing a clean install of Windows 7 64-bit, which was an upgrade from the factory installed windows vista 64-bit.
I've already installed all of the drivers gateway has on their support page for my computer.
Any help would be appreciated.
As I've suggested before, check bios updates, try drivers running in compatibility mode or search for other drivers via google. Another possible source for solutions could be the sony viao users forum or similar.
If you require help searching for drivers I certainly help but I'm currently away from home and only have limited net use. I'm back tomorrow though so will look in then..
Hi 'khaidoba',
This solution is twice earlier in this thread from other Users w/ Sony Vaios & the same issue/query. I am putting it here, again, for your use. I beginning to think we should make this resolution a Sticky.
Anyway, here is the remedy/solution...
Install exactly in this order:
Download all sony drivers for Vista
Instal Vaio event service
Reboot
Install Sony DLL Utils
Reboot
Install Sony shared Library
Reboot and it should work
Thanks,
Drew
