Why does a message appear when installing a driver?

    Msg: This hardware: The software you try to install to use (a driver name) has not passed the Windows logo test that verifies the compatibility with Windows XP.


    Sony strictly verifies the operability/connectivity of VAIO-related peripheral with VAIO computers.
    Hence, user may carry on with the installation of the driver by clicking Continue even if this message appears.

    Note:
    For the peripheral devices of other manufacturers, please contact these manufacturers to confirm if Windows® XP is supported and if the installation procedure is correct.
