    So as usual with sony laptops they don't let you update the graphics. And since Sony refuses to update them for you via their site, I was wondering if anyone could provide a link for the 12.1 update that will work with my Radeon HD 5650.

    As far as I know it is not switchable graphics, and that was the only links I have been able to find drivers for.

    I also, already put the 11.12 update on here a while back and it worked perfectly. So I'm eager to update it again.

    As stated in the title I have a Sony Vaio EB model # VPCEB2UX/BI with an ATI Radeon HD 5650 gfx card.

    Thanks for the help

    I also noticed that whenever I run diagnostics it says that my GPU has 681mb of ram when it is clearly a 1gb card. Any solution for that? I'd like to make sure I'm using all 1gb of my card.
