My greatest fear is that this notebook model maybe extinct, it was bought in early 2003. I managed to download Sony VAIO network drivers hopping the drivers could be compatible to my model but they were rejected. xe over the net but the folder came empty with 0 kb each. I also tried downloading the driver from the internet but the file format was not. I tried using universal drivers’ disk to locate and load the communication driver but it was not successful. I right clicked my computer > properties > device manager and under the network drivers I found out that the Microsoft PCI Simple Communications Controller driver was missing. I was sure that the problem was network connection oriented so I decided to take a look at the network drivers.

The message was that there were problems with LAN connection port. Next, I tried internet connection trouble shooting but I never went through. The first thing I thought was that firewall had blocked the incoming connections but that was not the case. I came to realize there was a problem later when I installed a modem but it could not pick up any signals.

So I loaded Windows XP Service Pack 2 to my computer. Can anyone help? I have a Sony notebook, model PCG-FX802P with Windows Service Pack 1 operating system and wanted to upgrade it to Service Pack 2 since it was a bit slower, besides of many other complications.
