How to: modify NVIDIA drivers for VAIO

Guys,



I'm really interested in finding out how to modify NVIDIA drivers to be usable on a VAIO?



Which inf file has to be edited (nvszf.inf I believe...?) and how?



The modified drivers need to:



1. Be installable on a Vaio machine (which the original aren't)

2. Allow auto dimming of the brightness of the screen!



I know some of you have been so kind to do that in the past. In my case ver. 266.58 is now due and I would like to learn what needs to be modified in general.



I think a small instruction will be highly appreciated by everyone here!



Thank you in advance!

No, wanted to ask first. As far as I know something additionally has to be added/edited in order for that to be possible. I had installed older drivers that were modified - they installed successfully but auto-dimming did not work.



Does anyone have a clue?



Will try it soon and let you know.

I remember making a modded inf for Vaio S. I will post the instructions later.
