Ive just purchased a used PCG-SR31K (SR33K in the USA) which the previous
user had tried to install WinXP onto. None of the built-in peripherals seem
to work, trackpad, modem, Bluetooth, jog dial etc.. I have tried to install
the latest drivers from the Sony site but WinXP keeps on telling me that I
have the latest drivers and refuses to recognise the *.inf when I point it
to that folder. Has anyone successfully upgraded one of these?

I upgraded the SR33 to XP Home. You must flash the BIOS first or the
install wont work.
These are for the SR33K but they might not go on an SR31K.
