I recall some time ago searching all over for drivers for the Sony Vaio VGN-C240E, and having a bit of a hard time getting all the drivers. That should be most if not all of the drivers for said laptop for the XP OS. There are persons who don't want Vista on their machine but can't find the XP drivers, and it seems to be a common issue with that model laptop. The link above has my compilation of drivers for the machine.

It's frustrating how some manufacturers don't have a driver matrix with the different OSes in mind. Some machines are made and ONLY Vista drivers are put out for that machine. Whatever happens if the client decides to downgrade? I guess that's where people like us come in to scour the net and find the different drivers for the machine........

I guess the manufacture did not test if the driver is certified for vista or xp at all...It's just like how VisionTek(ATi's Graphic card company) did not test their graphic driver's problem before.

Although Technology is getting better and better each and every day, some of the small competitive companies aren't still testing their hardware/software at all, so they're just eager to get it out. Look what happened to Window Vista! wink2.gif

Interestingly I got a message saying that the file will expire in 7 days from today. This after 2173 downloads since it was uploaded on January 29, 2008, 15:56 according to the system. I decided to put it on SkyDrive just in case it goes down. I don't think it's going anywhere unless I delete my account or something so just in case. The SendSpace link is the same as it was.
