Hi b11pnd,

This is a fairly old model that was designed for and came pre-installed with XP and is not supported by Sony for Windows 7. However there are Vista utilities available that may work under Win 7 for the Fn key functions.

Download and install the following from this link (under Windows Vista) in the order given:

http://www.sony.co.uk/support/en/product/VGN-C1Z_B/updates

• Setting Utility Series
• Sony Shared Library
• VAIO Event Service
• VAIO Control Center

There is no memory card driver available under the Vista upgrade tab. You could try the original XP version but I have no idea whether this will work.
