    I've got a VGN-NS160D that I've installed Windows 7 64-bit on. I'm trying to play blu-rays with Windvd BD for Vaio, but it says that the incorrect video drivers are installed. I've got the official Sony 64-bit video drivers (for Intel 945 video), but Windows 7 says that the latest video drivers are already installed.

    How do I force Windows to install the Sony drivers?

    I'm using the trial of PowerDVD as well, which works, but I'd rather get the free one working before shelling out another $100.
