Can anyone point me in the right direction please install the 171.xx driver series(171.16 on LV2GO)..but first uninstall any tweaking utils and the previous drivers completely.it should work.also consider testing your card with other games,it could be a conflict between your driver and the game(maybe the game needs a patch) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest thegreatbeste Posted January 25, 2008 Report Share Posted January 25, 2008 Your problem could also be windows Vista. I tried to play crysis. But due to the fact that Turbo Cache uses system memory i am pretty much lost with vista running on my system. Besides that Vista uses DX10. Sony offers a downgrade only for Vista Business which comes along witht the FZ19VN If someone could post a serial number 28****** of his FZ19VN we could have access to the http://support.vaio.sony.co.uk/os/xp/downgrade/ site. Basically the FZ19VN has an Intel Graphics board other hardware seems to be identical except some numbers like hd discspace. Now as the rest of the FZ series has Nvidia graphics inside the only driver not available directly from sony is for the graphics board.
