eskorpian Posted January 28, 2011 Share Posted January 28, 2011 Hi, I am a complete newbe and have installed on my Sony Vaio VGN-FW140E the following: Windows 7 iPC Mac Leopard 10.5.6. My Laptop's spec are: Intel Core 2 Duo P8400 2.26GHz 3GB RAM HD 250GB - 5400rpm - Serial ATA Sound System: Dolby Sound Room® Audio Mobile Intel® Graphics Media Accelerator 4500MHD with Intel® Clear Video, Technology Total Available Graphics Memory: 1340MB (max.), Chipset: Mobile Intel® GM45 Express Chipset Interface: HDMI™ and VGA out with Smart Display Sensor Ethernet Protocol: 10Base-T/100Base-TX/1000Base-T Wireless LAN: Intel® WiFi Link 5100AGN (802.11a/b/g/n) Bluetooth® Technology: Integrated Stereo A2DP Bluetooth® Technology I followed instructions from another online site and managed to get both O/Ss working. The Problem that I am facing is the following: 1. The Graphics looks very lo-res. Don't know how to update the graphics driver, what driver I will need and where to get it from. 2. The Sound does not work. Don't know how to update the graphics driver, what driver I will need and where to get it from. 3. The LAN/Network is not working. Don't know how to update the graphics driver, what driver I will need and where to get it from. 4. The WIFI is not working. Don't know how to update the graphics driver, what driver I will need and where to get it from. I will greatly appreciate any help in trying to get the above to work? I am completely new to the MAC OS and since I can't connect to the internet when I am in the MAC OS, I am not having much luck to get my laptop on either the WIFI or LAN.

dothacker Posted January 31, 2011 Share Posted January 31, 2011 Your wireless is not going to work either, until you replace it. Your graphics will not work.
