    Hi this is my first post so bare with me, I recently restored windows xp to said vaio laptop because it became too laggy and slow,the laptop was bought second hand sometime ago and didnt come with the restore disk or driver disks,ive managed to boot another copy of xp onto it and get most of the drivers working after downloading a driver pack from the sony site.

    The only problem is some functions are still not working and i need help on possible solutions, basically all the listed items have yellow exclamation marks against them in device manager:
    -Audio device on HD audio bus
    -Ethernet controller
    -mass storage controller
    -modem device on hd audio bus.

    Any help is appreciated, thanks.
