    HELP ME!
    Well thanks in advance for Any help at all..
    I made a mistake, I baught a sony vaio vgn-sz90s lap top from an asian student a week befor he left back to japan...

    he Was supposed to give me the recovery discs, but never did. I had a horific system crash and [hardware] and had to replace my hard drive. I have re-installed with XP Pro [sp 2 integrated] but because its a Japan model and as I'm not able to read the web site that has driver support..lol..I am at a loss to get it up and running again..

    Please if you can, send me a link to the drivers [?] or perhaps a torrent of the recovery discs..?... if nothing else a driver for the network card [wired] so I can get it online at least and not use a web cafe to send / recieve e-mail ..sigh..Thanks again..
    KOBKED-X sad in canada ;-(

    I am 90% running!!!!!! I have chipset in, the nforce go 7400 in, the audio drivers in [although the program sonic is there, but wont run at all] The blue tooth is in and seems to work [nothing to test it on] :p The wireless is in and is working great. [the labled key on the back of the keyboard too].. Usb is working as well as all other plugs except the modem [?]


    heres what isn't working...

    The list in hardware manager reads as follows

    Biometric Coprocesser
    Mass Storage Utility
    Modem device on High Def Audio Bus
    Unknown device
    USB Controller
    USB Controller

    I am assumeing that one of the lisy [unknown?] is the web camera... Will update, I am makeing a folder with all the drivers that work so if you need them just ask
