PCG-5J2L XP Drivers *Help*

post #1 of 5

Thread Starter 
My friend has a pink Sony PCG-5J2L that originally came with Vista but we all can almost agree Vista is a dread.

She downgraded or what I consider an upgrade to XP; however. There are some driver issues such as the video and network.
I searched and there seems hope but then no.

Anyone got any luck on downgrading/upgrading to Windows XP on this?
It seems the video, display functions, ethernet drivers are the main issues.

Any help would be appreciated!

Want to give this one a shot? I am not sure that FN and screen controls are part of any drivers you find out there.

Yep - that's the key word. Sony support pages work best (exclusively) with IE
