    Afternoon,

    so a co-worker at work today was telling me about his wife's computer, a Sony VAIO VGN-FZ140E. It came with Windows Vista Home Premium.
    The issue is that they don't really like Vista, and the computer is infected with a Virus that they can't get rid of. They own a Windows XP Home Edition CD so they'd like format it and install XP.
    I told him I could probably do it for him, shouldn't be too hard.

    Except that when I try to find the drivers for Windows XP I'm having a hard time.
    The Sony website only gives 3 things for Windows XP.
    I can probably find most drivers (I have found the GPU, chipset by doing a quick search) but I'm reading that people have problems finding some other drivers (mostly the Audio, Camera and the SD card slot ones).
    Does anyone know where I can download all the Windows XP drivers for this computer? Any help would be appreciated.

    Asked and answered in other threads here. Use the search box at the top of the page and look for "FZ XP" without the quotes.
