sony vgn-ns240ew with vista ultimate 64 bit?

dear all,

i just bought this laptop .
its features are given below.

i mainly use music production software therefore i need 4 gb ram to operate without any performance issues. so i bought 2 gb rams and vista 64 bit.
i installed the 64 bit.
but now i'm facing driver issues. especially in graphics adapter and network/wifi adapters.

can anyone please guide me through a source where i can find these devices' 64 bit drivers? i searched the web but i couldn't find.
do you think that it's impossible to run 64 bit in this system?

thanks in advance
alper

Hi alper, Welcome to the Forum.

I do not think you will have a lot of luck with Sony. My advice would be to use a program like this; SIW | System Information for Windows by Gabriel Topala It will help you to identify the components that you need, ie. Manufacturer and Model. As most of these devices are fairly common all you need to do then is visit said Manufacturers site and search for x64 drivers.

I hope this helps
