window vista to windows 7 64 bits. But sadly I can’t recognize my graphics

there any way to fix it?
SOLUTION:
If
you upgraded your notebook to windows 7 pro 64 here is the updated driver
If
the updated driver does not resolve your issue, and the specific driver that
you are looking for is not posted on http://www.esupport.sony.com
Then
You can try installing the driver posted for Windows Vista by running it in
compatibility mode in Windows 7 https://esupport.sony.com/US/perl/swu-download.pl?mdl=VGNAW120J&upd_id=5080&os_id=45
To
run a file in compatibility mode, right-click on the installation (.exe) file
and select properties.
Click OK and run the driver installation package. If neither of the above driver options resolves your issue, try performing an upgrade from Windows Vista to Windows 7 instead of a clean install.
A clean install involves installing Windows 7 with no previous operating system present on the unit.
When an upgrade from Vista to Windows 7 is performed instead, many of the compatible drivers present in Windows Vista will be transitioned over to Windows 7.
In
the properties windows click on the compatibility tab.
In the compatibility tab, check the box to run in compatibility mode and select the Windows Vista Operating System that the driver was designed for
