    Hi,

    I have just installed Vista Ultimate 64-bit on my Sony Z but left with two issues.

    1, Can't find WLAN GlobeTrotter HSDPA Modem Driver for Vista 64 bit :mad:
    2, Can't find Infineon TPM 64 bit application?

    Any ideas?

    All works. Downloaded and install the Sony Z XP downgrade WWAN application. (WWAN Connection Manager for XP 2.3 - 2.3.0.630)

    Thank you very much. Now the last part I need is the WWAN Sony Z GlobeTrotter HSDPA Modem Driver - Vista 64bit.

    All the links I found are dead. Can you help here too?

    Sorry, nope. I had a quick Google and couldn't find it either. It's a bit annoying that Option don't even provide "as-is, unsupported" generic drivers for their hardware.

    As the Z is clearly aimed at the business market, there's a decent chance that Sony will eventually provide 64 bit drivers. Unfortunately that doesn't help with your immediate problem...
