sony vgn-sz38gp windows 7 drivers issues

I did a clean install on sony vgn-sz38gp. I have a problem with the video card drivers if anyone can help i would love it. thanks. I have already tried to download the xp drivers but hit a dead end due to 32 bit drivers.

i found this on the Sony site under Windows 7 Ultimate 64 bit

Not sure if this will help, but sometimes it is enough to update the .inf files so that the OS can properly detect the hardware.

If not, then we will need the hardware ID and OS version.

How to find the Hardware Id:

I think this is the driver you need:
32-bit http://www.nvidia.com/object/geforce_notebook_winvista_win7_179.48_beta.html
64-bit http://www.nvidia.com/object/geforce_notebook_winvista_win7_64bit_179.48_beta.html

Wasn't sure what kind of video card was in the laptop. That's why I was pulling for the device ID, but if it's an Nvidia, then that driver should do the job!
