Hi Lars,
well I think its best to try to answer here, so everyone has a the information if needed.
The most important part of the clean install is to kill the vaio care rescue process while the restart driver is installed.
Please read Joe's clean install guide from top to bottom:
Vaio F Series Windows 7 64-bit Clean Install Using OEM Recovery Discs
In short, these are the steps you have to take (this is only an overview!!!:
0) Read Joe's guide from top to bottom and have it in front of you while
going trough the routine ( a second computer would be handsome)
1) Create the rescue discs (you just need them for reinstalling "VAIO Care"
2) Remove the discs and shut down the computer.
3) Press the "ASSIST" Button on the keyboard (This will do the installation
through the rescue partition.
4) Follow the instructions of the "VAIO Care Rescue" and after that the Joe's
guide.
5) Be alert when window starts the first time and starts to install the drivers.
You should open the taskmanager right away otherwise you won't be
quick enough to kill the process
6) After the installation is completed (without any other software) check out
if all drivers have been installed properly. You can compare them to the
once in the guide.
7) Install "VAIO Care" from the 1st of your new DVDs.

8) Re-activate the special keys (ASSIST, VAIO, etc) by following step 7
from ilfuca's guide (you install the programs with "VAIO Care"; hint: "vaio settings utility" is actually called "Setting Utility Series" on my computer):
Win 7 fresh install guide for Vaio F series
9) Now install all the programs you need through "VAIO Care".
I hope this helps!
Servus,
