The original TV Tuner Driver supplied by Sony for Vista is for 32-bit systems only and Sony do not provide a 64-bit Version.


I believe your model has the Avermedia A313 Hybrid DVB-T Tuner and you will probably have to Google for a 64-bit driver.  There is one here but I really don't know if it will work - it would be at your own risk: -

I see that the VGC-LV2 series has an Avermedia A313 Twin DVB-T TV Tuner card and was released with a 64-bit driver.  It is not a Hybrid card, however, and I don't know if it uses a different driver.

It is possible that you can find an A313 Hybrid 64-bit driver on another Vaio model but it would take considerable time to search!  One of the problems of a clean install and a change to 64-bit.

:wink:
