    Hello everybody,
    no this isn't a problem as a such (my SZ7 works fine, etcetera) but it would be good to know what is going on.

    Here's what's bugging me:
    When I access the Vaio update I can install updates, as I should, except 1.
    And that is the Intel driver.
    It doesn't instal automatically, nor is it possible to instal it manually.

    I've tried under the Chipset and the NVidia card...

    Could it be that I somehow have a newer version already??

    It would be nice to know why I can't install that little update.

    Thanks a lot for any answers.

    Did you check both versions?

    IMO, it's because you have already a newer version.

    I tried to.
    The only problem I had was that I couldn't definitely identify my current driver - although it did seem as it was a newer one when I looked at "it" initially, now I'm not too sure...
    Intel "check" NETw4v32Version:11.5.0.32
    Online its 11.5.1.18 So it should be newer...

    I considered the idea that mine is newer also, but I wouldn't know how...
    Thanks for the input though.
    Any information is helpful :)
