    Hey,

    well, i have recently upgraded my vaio to Win8 hastily, which was foolish coz i should have checked compatibility issues with my product. Anyway, AFTER upgrading, i went to the online vaio support site and got product information regarding downloading drivers for Win8.. Only 3 upgrades were available:

    1. VAIO Care
    2. Vaio Update
    3. and one more...

    i was wondering if they were going to launch out driver upgrades for graphics card anytime soon, or for camera and other things as well? my product specs are as follows:

    Vaio, E Series, VPCEB16FG
    Win 8 Pro (was Win 7 HP), 64 Bit
    Graphics Card: ATI Mobility Radeon HD 5000 Series

    ------

    no other forums replied to my request and the problem is that i am becoming paranoid about the upgrades, hopefully they will arrive... sometime, as long as they do, othewise i would have to go back to win 7 :/

    thanks for trying to help me out here.
