If you are running Windows 7 OS, simply do the update.

More useless Spam from our friend celavey. If you actually know the answer, that is good but if you don't, please don't waste everbody's time.

Hi Mike,

Docking Station drivers are usually listed with the drivers for the Vaio itself.

Which drivers are you actually looking for?

Hi Mike,

The graphics driver is a combined ATI and Intel driver which allows switching from Speed to Stamina graphics modes.

You can download the driver from the Support Pages for your Vaio here: -

http://www.sony.co.uk/support/en/product/VPCZ21C5E/updates

Look in the Preinstalled Windows 7 section - the 64-bit version is lower down than the 32-bit version.

However, unless you have reinstalled Windows it should be already installed and you just need to toggle to an external display mode by using Fn+F7.

Are you using HDMI or VGA connections?

Because of the Hybrid nature of this driver, never allow Windows Update to change your propriatary Vaio driver.

Hi all,

I have the same problem with a variation of the docking station and laptop.

I have the docking station VGP-PRZ20A and the VPCZ21S9E laptop. I need the Win8/64 bit driver.

I also download drivers for VPCZ21SHX model as the above is probably a regional one.

BTW, I also have problems with several Fn buttons that do not work (e.g. Fn F1 (mousepad), Fn F5-F6 (brightness), F9-F10 (Zoom), the Assist and Vaio buttons near the wireless switch etc.

These are all due to the fact that the laptop had initialy W7 installed and I then made a clean install of W8 and I have been struggling to get the right drivers (not all W8 drivers are available, I use some W7 ones etc..)

Thanks in advance for any help,

Fotis
