Nvidia Drivers For Sony Vaio Windows 7
I've exhausted my googling. And I'm posting as a last resort, trust me! It appears there are no Windows 7 x64 drivers for this video.
The Intel video is installed fine but the NVIDIA (9300M GS) is seen as 'Standard VGA Graphics Adapter'. Windows update didn't find it. NVIDIA's detect tool on their site didn't find it. Windows Vista 32 or 64 drivers do not work. Driverpacksolution (usually my silver bullet if all else fails!) didn't work either Any chance somone knows of a modded Vaio driver that may work? As we all know Sony likes to change their hardware so standard drivers never work!
Thankyou for all your replies. Ive tried all your suggestions and other more 'advanced ideas' using substituted inf files and modding etc etc and now its obvious, and after reading other bits and pieces about this problem, that Nvidia and Sony don't get along with each other or something and will not support their hardware. Hopefully one day Nvidia will make one to go with windows 7 and til then ill dual boot xp onto my comp as apparently (after some more reading) the drivers are compatible with my Sony nice computer but pity you cant f.@ing watch movies on it AW235J. That has hardly any issues at all apperntly even with Bluray working and im going start installing it soon so ill know soon.
Im sure ill find some issues but better than a screen that isnt quite right. If anyone knows of a site like laptop2go that has the driver (I find it hard to believe some geeker hasnt sat down and written a driver for it) then please let me know, or even when Nvidia bring out the official one. Otherwise any other help from anyone with a Sony AW series or specifically the AW235J would be appreciated on how to get the graphics driver for Win 7 32 bit.

Hope this will help.Best of luck. I have finally installed the Nvidia driver and I think the solution was a bit more basic than I made it in the end.
All i did was reinstall windows 7, making sure I formatted the hdd first rather than just upgrading vista or anything. Then I downloaded the file again from lap2govideo or whatever it is along with the INF file (it was strange but this time it would allow me to replace the nvdisp file and this may have had something to do also with the old system hanging around?) Anyway do this and it let me install and I guess lap2govideo is the answer for this problem with a clean install. Stilll noone including Nvidia support has been unable to tell me that.reinstall your windows. Thanks for all your help.
