VGN FE-41E is really Vista-x64 Capable?

c.vertone — Wed, 26 Sep 2007 09:38:17 GMT

I tried to install Vista 64-bit on my VAIO VGN-FE41E.
The NVIDIA 7400 drivers downloaded from the support page can't recognize my operating system like Windows Vista and doesnt install it on my pc.
Where I can find the driver for NVIDIA drivers for VISTA-x64?
Thanks

Sony does not support 64-bit processing on any Vaio. The processor is 64-bit capable but you will have to find all the drivers for your hardware (if they exist) and update your software.

For most people 64-bit is not a realistic proposition at the moment because hardware support is not fully available - perhaps in a few years time!

However, the nVidia 64-bit drivers are available from here: -

It's the same if I download the forceware Nvidia Driver for Vista 64 from Nvidia website and I install it?
