Hi again,

SInce nobody help me so i thought i'd help for others who have the same laptop as mine or silimar model.

just follow these step:

Problems:

PCI Driver - not found (Audio + Modem)

Solution:

if you have already installed Audio Drivers, please Remove it !

download this file from:

Look for KB888111 Driver

Install it - this will pickup Audio and Modem

Good luck :heart_eyes:

By the number 888111, it's looking like the HD Audio driver by Microsoft. I'm right?

Well, that's a need to get sound if you have HD audio. Strange that they aren't included at the driver package by Sony.
