The driver will work for Xperia V as well?

I'll try this when I get home later.

Guys, I got it.

I have to make sure that I'm already at Device Manager.

When I plug in the phone with fastboot, a new entry will appear and I have to capture it before it disappears by right-clicking on it and then select to update drivers. I will then be presented with the option of from where I would like to install the driver from.

Now I have installed the S1boot fastboot  driver.

If not for the lack of working ROMs currently, I would have flashed a new ROM by now.
