hi

I have a sony laptop(Model= VGN-NW130J) & I install server 2008 R2 on it(becuaseof working with sharepoint 2010 I have to do it)

I want the proper derivers for it. can you help me & give me the link that i can download drivers?

thanx a lot.

If you want proper drivers for Server 2008 R2, you probably should get a Server and not a notebook.

It looks like that laptop ships with Vista Home Premium (by default) from Sony - given it's a Core2 Duo with 4GB RAM, your best bet is to install Vista or Windows 7 on it (7 if you can) and run Virtual PC to load and use your Server 2008 R2 / Sharepoint install. If you absolutely must run Server 2008 R2 natively on it, see if you can use Vista or Win7 drivers - if not, you're out of luck (and should again revisit my suggestion).

Here on Station Drivers you can find the latest, here are some that apply to you:

You may also want to give a go at DriverMax, its what I use to make sure I have the latest drivers, this site is also pretty great at finding drivers by using the hardware id to narrow it down http://www.downloadwindowsdrivers.info/

So good luck
