    Hi,

    I have a Sony Vaio VGN-FW21E installed with Win7 64 bits, all is working fine except that i can't find any driver for the Ricoh RL5C592 Memory Stick Bus Host Adapter i've found many driver on the web but none works and the website of Sony doesn't provide any driver for this.
    If someone can help me that would be very appreciated.

    Thanks in advance.

    Use the Sony provided Vista 64-bit driver or get the 64-bit driver from one of the newer FW models.

    Coolguy is right - for the 200 series your total driver package will be some newer WIN 7 drivers and some of the older Vista ones. If Sony for your model did not update the Memory stick, use the original 64 bit Vista one and you'll be fine.
