Vaio SZ Issue
Dec 21, 2009
My Vaio SZ came with Vista Business and of course became quite sluggish. So a few month back clean installed Windows 7 (Not supported by Sony) and followed the driver guides on here. However I am already finding it just as sluggish and is also now completely freezing at times.
Tha laptop has 2Gb RAM and I'm now wondering whether XP will be the best solution and run much quicker?
(I have a 4Gb desktop that will run Windows 7 on where I guess it will work better?)

I was working on an email Saturday when my Sony Vaio stopped working & flipped over to the black & white Vaio screen. Since then, I've been able to reboot it once, but it flips right back over to the Vaio screen. At one point, I was able to get to the Advanced Boot Options menu by hitting F8. I tried to restore to the last known good configuration. It got to the Windows logo screen, then went back to the Vaio screen, then went to the "Operating System could not be found" screen.The computer has a One Touch Web Access Without Booting Up feature.

I have just bought a new Sony VAIO laptop which came in with a lot of different VAIO programs on it. Gaming was the main reason for buying this baby, so I thought I should keep it as clean as possible, since I will never use any of the fancy features VAIO provides (and quite frankly, I am a neat freak, so having all these programs would make me paranoid about slowing my cpu). I am currently following these steps highlighted here (url) Your-Windows-Computer to remove all unnecessary programs (including swapping over the anti viruses). is it safe to blatantly remove all VAIO programs through add or remove programs feature? I am afraid some of them might be important for windows and by removing them I would cause more issues (example- VAIO Wireless Easy Connect/Smart Network. Im more than happy to have a standard windows option tool, so would I be ok if I delete VAIO one?)

My Vaio took a bang earlier today and now windows won't boot up and I'm just getting blank screens all the time. I can't even reset to factory as I can't access anything. Hard drive light is constantly on but can't hear much noise from it.

I just checked Sony's website about upgrading to Windows 7 and it says that it does not meet the min. req. and Sony will not be issuing any drivers.
Has anyone successfully upgraded a Vaio VGN-NR260e from Vista Home Premium to Windows 7? If yes, any gotcha's?

I bought an HP laptop with Vista Home Premium but have since had it stolen. I sent off for the Windows 7 Upgrade disks before that happened and just got them in the mail.
I have a Sony Vaio desktop that also has Vista Home Premium and figured I would just use the disk to upgrade that instead. Several problems though - the upgrade came with 2 disks - one of them being an 'HP Upgrade Manager' which figured out that I did not have an HP computer. The second problem is that I then just put in the 7 upgrade disk (Home Premium) but I got an error message that said that the version on the disk is not compatible with my system. Looked on the disk and on it is stated 'this disk contains 64-bit software only' and my desktop is a 32-bit system.
Anything I can do? Or do I just need to sell off the disks on ebay and then buy a retail version of the 7 upgrade?

My vaio 2005 computer allowed me to view and edit video from my sony digital video camera using windows xp. After a bad virus, I had to install windows 7. I used roxio software to try and edit and record my video but the computer didn't recognize the camera. In trying to use windows media player, I was told that I needed a driver for the camera, but in searching the computer and the internet for one, none was found. After contacting Microsoft, they couldn't find a driver.

I have a re-occurring problem with my 1year old Sony Vaio. When I switch it on, it often goes to a page where it says 'windows was unable to start'. When I press 'start windows normally' it starts up with vaio logo and sometimes windows logo, but then stops and redirects me to a page that is blue to check for problems, but stays on this for hours, never resolving the issue. I have tried taking battery out, booting in safe mode (which doesn't work) and using last known working settings, but still can't get to log in page.

I had a bluescreen on this sony laptop, and I have attached the dump file to the thread. Can any identify what caused the bluescreen (driver... program... etc??) I was watching a flash video as the computer crashed. I am thinking it was perhaps the graphics driver. If you can't identify what caused the BlueScreen thru that file could you tell me where to check to find out?

I have a Sony Vaio laptop, E-Series VPCEA24FM, running Windows 7, and I have trouble getting it to print wirelessly.I first tried it with a Lexmark Pro900 Inkjet printer, but when I sent a file, it would sit in the queue indefinitely, even though the print monitor indicates that the printer is 'Ready.'I thought it was a printer problem, so I got a new Brother HL-2270DW Laserprinter. The same problem would occur, it wouldn't print. In both cases, reinstalling the printer allows it to print once, but if the device goes into standby, I can never print to it again from the Sony Vaio. I have two other laptops, running Windows Vista and Windows 7 respectively, and both can print to both printers just fine.

Win7 64 wont start on a Sony Vaio. It will sometimes get to the desktop and seconds later it shuts down. No logout, just a black screen total shutoff. when restarted the black screen popped up again but this time it was with the message "windows failed to start" and the options were either "launch startup repair" or start windows normally. I chose "launch startup repair".
The startup again goes to the immediate shutdown, more quickly each time it is tried. I have gotten into safe mode and performed a memory and disk check which were ok. It seems to go farther into the startup after it has been shutdown for a while.
