Does your Sony computer have sound and video at the moment?

Those kinds of basic drivers are most often part of the operating system installation procedure, and they are not available individually from either Sony or Asus it seems...

pikoro · May 21, 2005, 11:28 AM

no it doesn´t.
i installed the XP pro, and also tried with xp pro sp2
also i dont have the sony cds

look at sony's website under their VAIO computer section, and look up your computer model number. There should be a support, or drivers section listed there somewhere so you can d/l the drivers that you need to get your computer running properly.

here, try this link . It should be the one for your desktop.

if that isn't your desktop, try this page and put in your computer's model number in.

No disks, that is diffucult to deal with because the individual drivers you want are just aren't available from Sony or from Asus. Without support from them, you'd have to know what video chip is on the video card or maniboard and search for basic drivers for that particular chip, and hope it works - same for the sound chip on the card or mainboard.

Have you tried booting the computer in safe mode after you install XP or XPSP2? Unless you have a hardware failure or really messed up installation, you should at least be able to see a desktop environment of some sort... You can configure the unit from safe mode.

I think he's looked there and so have I (last night) - I couldn't find 'em either. A google search for the unit brings up a thread posted here at DH a while back too, and Vampy couldn't find much for it then either...

Edit: sorry the double post y'all - CD and I were posting concurrently.

well, while looking for the drivers for his system, i came across something that said that the MoBo in his system is an intel 865 chipset MoBo. So he should just be able to go to Intel's website and d/l the latest 865 chipset drivers and they should work, that is unless Sony has put in some kind of proprietary amendments to the 865 chipset that will not allow the Intel 865 drivers install. Now it never said anywhere if the video was integrated video, or if the system had it's own graphics card. That is one thing that we need to know if we are to help him with the video drivers.

i dont have a graphic card , its integrated.
the control panel shows that graphics drivers is not installed, but everything seems nice, it shows 32 bits colors, and good resolution, but the sound is not working
i´m going to try the intel 865 chipset driver

pikoro · May 21, 2005, 03:04 PM

also i installed the win xp pro in spanish.
that would be the problem?

CDsDontBurn · May 21, 2005, 05:33 PM

lol....you installed the spanish version of winXP???? The drivers and whatnot should still be the same

PangingJr · May 21, 2005, 10:50 PM

from links above...All Drivers and Software for the PCV-RS43M.

according to the Sony eSupport, the the Intel 865PE chipset is used in PCV-RS43M model ?

anyway, check with Sony and see if you can directly install and use all of the Intel drivers from Intel.

Graphics Driver for Intel 865G and 865GV.
the Intel 865PE does not have an integrated video, nor the 865P??.

the Intel Chipset Software Installation Utility (INF update utility) is support for all Intel 865 chipset family,
this includes 865G, 865GV, 865PE and 865P.

Hello. I have a Vaio RS-52MV. It has the same Asus P4SD-VL motherboard, so this would work for you. For the record, the motherboard came integrated with 7 USB (4 on back panel, 3 in the front) 2 Firewire (1 on back panel), PS2 mouse and keyboard, onboard 2 channel sound with SP/DIF optical output, integrated 64 MB video. Compare this with yours as it may be a different board revision.

Select your OS and download. For XP SP2 there's a fresh driver version 14.13 posted 4/29/2005

[color=#ffffff]There's a newer version but I didn't used them (I also have a spanish XP) because they weren't multi language compatible.[/color]

[color=white]Sound Driver: Analog Devices ADI1982 SounMAX. I haven´t found a stand-alone driver for this (only drivers from Compaq or HP that won't install on my machine), but apparently the XP installation (SP2) has drivers for this.[/color]

I haven´t searched for a new driver.

NEC Firewire: ditto

Hope this helps.

Hola Amigo, lamento responder hasta ahora, pues yo tuve el mismo problema con una sony vaio Modelo PCV-RS50MV con chipset Intel 865G que fue necesario cambiar el disco duro y como no podia instalar el sonido, empece a buscar en los foros y encontre que la referencia de casi todos es ASUS P4SD pero te refiere a un controlador REALTECK que si se instala pero igual no da sonido, entonces busque entre todos los discos de Moterboard que tengo y finalmente tengo instalado el sonido y el video que son identificados en la lista de hardware de Mi PC como:

Video: [color=red]Intel(r)82865G Graphics Controler[/color] que lo obtuve de la pagina de Sony descargando el archivo del Chipset de este modelo,

Sonido: [color=red]Vinyl AC97 codec combo driver (WDM)[/color] que lo obtuve de un disco de Motherboar Biostar U8068 y todo funciona muy bien espero te sirva o sirva a otras personas con el mismo problema y quede para referencias futuras.

Nota: Para el sonido puedes buscar en la pagina de Biostar en el [color=blue]modelo 8068 hata 8668[/color] como [color=blue]VT8235[/color] y este funciona bien, aun cuando es un controlador de [color=blue]VIA
