Default Mass Storage Controller Driver


Hi,

I have a Sony Vaio VGNFS980 running Vista Home Premium 32 bit. I cannot
locate a driver for the mass storage controller. The Mass Storage
Controller and Unknown Device both show up in the Device Manager with
yellow !!!. I just cannot find a driver to work. Any help would be
appreciated.

You need the motherboard (chipset) driver and/or possibly an additional RAID
controller driver. Get the drivers from Sony's website for your specific
model machine. If you added a third-party controller yourself (RAID, USB,
Firewire, etc.) then get the drivers from that mftr.'s website.

I checked the specs on your laptop and it uses Intel® 915GM chipset.

This will take you to the license agreement screen, hit accept at the bottom
and preceed to download INFINST_AUTOL.EXE.

It will install and enumerate other devices associated with the chipset
after rebooting.
