I have recently installed Windows 7 on my VGN-N250E. It does not recognize my sd-card. Does anyone know where i can find sd-card driver for win7 for sony vaio VGN-N250e?

What happens when you tried to plug-in SD card to the computer?

Have you made any recent changes to the computer prior to the issue?

To make the SDHC be recognized by the computer, we need to ensure that the card reader works in Windows 7 first. Please check if the card reader is recognized properly by the computer and you have installed the driver for it.

Meanwhile, you can plug some other storage cards to the card reader and see how it works.

I would suggest you to refer the link below
A Secure Digital (SD) card may not be recognized on a Windows 7 based computer.

Uninstall all the Generic USB drivers and reinstall.

1. Open Device Manager.

2. In "Disk Drives" dropdown, uninstall the "Generic SD/MMC USB device" drive.

3. Restart computer.

4. Insert SDHC card.

Hope this helps.

There is a specific set of driver you have to install for your computer, Vaio laptops use the ACPI fucnction to control hardware access like volume / brightness control etc
You need the ACPI driver installed for Fn key to work
Install Sony Notebook Control Driver for windows vista
Install Sony Utils.dll
Install Sony Shared Library
same for your sd card reader just reinstall the drivers

You're having problems with this driver because Windows 7 is not officially supported on your Sony Vaio. There's a way around this however.

1. Go here for Windows 7 32 bit video card driver for your computer: http://www.nvidia.com/object/win7-winvista-32bit-260.99-whql-driver.html

Or go here for Windows 7 64 bit video card driver for your computer: http://www.nvidia.com/object/win7-winvista-64bit-266.58-whql-driver.html

2. Select "Download".

3. Install the video card drivers. Restart computer when asked.

Good luck and thanks for using FixYa. Please post back if you have any difficulties.

You can go to Sony's Support site to make sure you have to download the most recent driver for the card reader. However, sometimes new drivers aren't being created for Windows 7 for older hardware. One the support site select your OS and see what comes up. There are also sometimes drivers released for 32bit, but not 64 where workarounds need to be implemented in order to get them to work, like installing a 32bit driver in compatibility mode.

Hope this helps

1. The drivers for this Web camera may not be developed for Windows 7 64 bit by the manufacturer.
You will either have to purchase a new camera to be compatible with Windows 7 or Vista 64.
This is also true for your SD card reader.

As if now windows 7 drivers are not available but you dont have to worry because Basic system functionality should be automatically enabled with the drivers included within the Windows 7 operating system.
However, if one of the drivers that came with the operating system does not work with your system, you can try installing the Windows Vista version of the driver provided by Sony for your model. Many of the Windows Vista drivers are compatible with Windows 7 based on current testing. Make sure you choose the bit version (32-bit or 64-bit) that matches your version of Windows 7.

"Windows 7 will come to the table, from the get-go, with support for all Vista-certified drivers. Compatibility with devices designed for Vista ensures that users will have a seamless upgrade/migration experience." (taken from softopedia.com)

This means that all the "vista compatible drivers" should work on win7 without any problems.
