dear ME ....the question is .... can you get the drivers?
look on the sony website (support pages) for your specific model and see what's available in the way of drivers.
the other real question is
how much ram do you have fitted? - you'll need 128 to get any real joy ... more is even better.
and what size HDD / free space is available
again to have a real chance you'll need 1.5-2Gb for a working system

note minimum spec is really pushing the machine ... comfortable is about double
