Welcome to DriverPacks.
Please read the forum rules posted here.
We don't find drivers. This is a DriverPacks support forum.
If you had tried integrating DriverPacks into your Vista install (which you clearly haven't), then you might have found that they would have worked fine.

Ati Radeon 3400 Series -- Please Help

null@example.com (NosmoKing) — Sun, 13 Sep 2009 18:56:53 +0000

I loaded a 64bit Vista OS on a machine that was shipped with a 32bit Vista OS. The laptop's monitor works, but the system can't recognize the factory-installed video card.

MAKE/MODEL: Sony VGN-FW190 laptop

OS: Vista 64-bit Home Premium (fresh install)

VIDEO CARD: ATI Radeon 3400 Series

I have been told by Sony that their drivers are proprietary; that is, you cannot install a driver for a higher model into a lower-model machine. For example, we tried installing a 64bit video driver for the VGN-VFW270 model onto the VGN-FW190 model, but the VGN-FW190 machine returned an error message saying that this is not allowed.

I have already tried loading 64-bit drivers from the AMD site, but none of these drivers will install on the VGN-FW190 machine.

I've also tried finding a 64-bit video driver for my ATI card from esupport.sony.com. Fail. The only driver Sony supplies is the one for the 32bit Vista OS.

Please, someone help me find a 64bit graphics card driver for an ATI Radeon 3400 series video card that can be installed onto a VGN-FW190 laptop.

Any help you can give me is appreciated, and I thank you for your time.
