[SOLVED] VGN-N325E Drivers won't work after downgrade to XP - Page 2

hey bill, you were right, it was the card reader. the proper driver was part of that driver package i found. I have no conflicts! thanks again so much for your help.

Hi Shyruban,
Welcome to the forum.
I just got your post. The problem is you may have the same model as "jaileer", but many systems have different specs. Jaileer did the hard work, I just guided him (with the info he gave me). The wired nic you have maybe different (not sure). Just for your info (and future post), PLEASE do not jump into a thread thinking you have the same model you and have the same problem or specs. This is not only confusing, but can cause problems with your system. I suggest you start a new thread (pertainning to your problems). You can always PM me if I miss your new thread.
Thanks,
Bill

PS- I will have this thread marked as resolved to avoid confusion.

Shyruban · 11-04-2007, 10:08 AM

Well it's the exact same model..and i figured it out...all is well...
triple boot xp\vista\linux works great... all hardware working with the links provided.. so thanx again..
And i wouldn't have posted here if i wasen't cewrtain is the same exact make and model...there's 2 diff one og the vgn-n325e with 2 diff chipset..but the rest is the same..

Hi Shryuban,
Glad you have it all working, I just was not sure of the specs. Multi posting can get confusing, so I have to be cautious. I am glad this thread helped you out. I hope you will continue to be a member
Thanks,
Bill

Hi guys,

I have exactly the same model, vgn-n325e? and I'm downgrading to XP now.
Where did you find modem driver? (Conexant® HDAUDIO SoftV92 Data Fax Modem with SmartCP)

Thanks

**BCCOMP** · 11-27-2007, 07:32 AM

Hi Buch,
Here is a link that should have most the drivers:
http://www.css.ap.sony.com/vaio/Vist...odel=VGN-N27GH
You should start a new thread as this one is marked resolved.
Thanks,
Bill
