Sound driver

I'm looking for a sound driver for the Sony vaio, PCG-Z1XGP. The sound was working fine, until I replaced the hard drive.
I was told the 'VGN-Z1' is the same as the 'PCG-Z1' so I tried downloading that sudio/sound driver. it did not work. It said "THIS UPGRADE IS NOT INTENDED FOR USE WITH YOUR COMPUTER MODEL"
Could I please have some help with getting my sound working again..
Thanks!

Tbh, I'm not too smart with this kind of thing. So detailed instructions or whatever would be nice.[/COLOR]

Apparently there are alot of problems with people finding the correct driver for this computer on the internet. If you did not get a driver CD with the laptop then I suggest that you call Sony themselves.

By doing a quick search another user 'slyman' cant find the driver and has joined many forums with no luck. He also encountered the same error with the PCG-ZI driver for he VGN-Z1.

I would call Sony or do a system reinstall. If you have the original CD that with your computer the drivers may be on there or in a separate partition on your computer.

What operating system are you using? Windows XP?
