According to Sony, no specific driver is needed.
Do you have any hard drives installed in the machine?
(You didn't provide specs on it/them.)
Sound card?
Recommendations on installing x64: (when you're having a troubled
installation)
(Not all of this is required for everyone. It's just a list of things others
have noted.)
Remove all peripherals from the machine while installing Vista x64.
(Printers, Flash drives, anything USB)
Some have better luck with only 2GB installed during installation.
If your sound card is Creative, remove it until later.
If you have SLI, disable it until later.
If you have IDE and SATA drives, remove all but the hard drive you want to
install Vista onto.
Don't perform updates during the installation.
Once Vista is installed, collect the drivers for any components you will be
adding and install the component and driver. Reboot when requested.
Once all components installed, including memory, get the windows updates.
At this point, if you have SLI, enable it.
Don't forget to set the memory hole remapping feature in your BIOS.
