Spoke to SONY TECH yesterday about the compatibility of Windows 7 with the Sony VIAO VGN FZ290, I was told that they do not recommend the installing and that they are NO drivers for sound and others and there will never be via SONY. He had no suggestion for getting a driver. There is the Software Informer software that can help detect needed drivers> I am looking for sound drivers from SigmaTel. Anyone have a suggestion as the next step?
