I bought a sony vaio laptop in Japan, it was in Japanese so I took that off and put the English windows on, the sound drivers were lost in the process, my computer just dosen’t have them. I spoke to sony and they said I would need to send the computer back to japan to get it sorted, have looked on all the websites, including sony vaio Japan and there are no drivers to download, the ones I tried didn’t work. A friend said I could get a soundcard and it would work, is this right? What alse can I do? Thanks

I would bet that you do what the company you bought it from says..
Send the computer back to Japan to the sony Vaio Japan company you bought it from and talk to their support line about what you need to be done with the computer.
Finding just a driver for any other computer will not help.
you can go to the Sony site in Japan, and go to support if they dont have them in the US. I think it Sony.jp.com
If you bought the laptop retail, didn’t it come with a drivers disk? Usually it is part of the restore disk and when you put that in your get an option for loading drivers. I’m suprized Sony would tell you to send your laptop to Japan…that is pretty lame. You could try calling again. A different person might be more receptive to your needs. Otherwise, try posting the model number of your laptop and myself or someone else might be able to give you a link to the needed driver. Sony uses a limited set of audio chipsets, so it can’t be too hard to figure out.
