    Hi, I have a Sony Vaio VGN-SZ750N and bought it with Vista on it. However, recently I upgraded to Windows 7 Pro. Everything works great except for the Display Driver and sometimes the screen starts flickering a lot and the computer hangs. Then I have to restart it. White flickering, the task bar says that "There was a problem with the Display Driver but windows has recovered" even though it hasn't recovered.

    I went on the Sony website and they don't have a windows 7 driver for this model.

    Can someone please help?:(

    Hi

    Is your Windows 7 32bit or 64bit?

    Was this an upgrade install from Vista or a clean install of Windows 7?

    Did you install the Chipset driver?
    In Device Manager do you have any yellow ! marks, if so what?

    Plus as that model Sony could use either Intel or Nvidia graphics for Video, could you run the below and attach as the guide mentions the log and we should be able to aim you in the right direction.

    Hi, I have Windows 7 32bit. I upgraded from Vista Pro to 7 Pro. I did not install the chipset driver. I checked in device manager and there is not a yellow there.
    I believe I have an Intel graphics card.

    Hi

    Install the Chipset again anyways as its always good to do this, once installed reboot (crucial to reboot), then install the latest Graphic Video driver from the same link as above for the Mobile Intel® GM965 Express Chipset (as this is the exact chipset you have on your Sony Vaio)
