    Hi,

    I recentlly updated to W7 on my Sony Vaio VGN-FE41M and all drivers work okay but a couple.
    The main problem is that the display adapter is not recognized, so in my 'Display Adapters' on Device Manager I have a 'Standard VGA Graphics Adapters". What can I do to solve this problem? My graphic card is NVIDIA GeForce Go 7400 GPU.
    I'm really frustrated with this, I'd really apreciate any help!
    Ah, and the second problem with de drivers is that on Device Manager I also have a 'Mass Storage Controller' in 'Other Devices' that I don't know what is it, but looks like whatever it is, it can't be recognized.

    Thank you so much!

    I guess you installed W7 64bit.
    If so, reinstall with W7 32bit because there is no W7 64bit for GeForce Go 7400 so far.
    It happened the same to me with VAIO FZ series.
