HI Thanks for the info.

just wondering what is aero??
any known faults or problems with the X? P23 running XP is bearable, better than p25 running vista. but i wanted chinese menu, so ended up changing to winxp chinese myself and voiding the warranty! sigh

tahnsk in advance
*
aero is glass look for your desktop appearance. it use some of graphic resources.


Added on January 14, 2010, 11:39 pmso far, no faults and hopefully wont have any smile.gif
changing os wont void the warranty, just they (sony) dont want you to mess with your pc like unable to type on keyboard (keyboard key change etc) which usually done by someone who is lack of knowledge on OS.

the peeps at service center even told that someone mess up their keyboard setting after change the default OS and end up sending back the unit back to service center...lol

I'm no expert but I would assume so? Unless they drop the price again  hmm.gif  hmm.gif   Was told there's only mainly pink and white stock left, blue has been out of stock for awhile  sad.gif

Kinda torn between choosing the CW16 and NW25 now. Can anyone advise on why I should get one over the other?
*
CW16. because:
1. Decent processor. - Low heat, consume less power, better battery life
2. Decent GPU - 512MB dedicated
3. Latest RAM technology - DDR3 1066.
4. LED backlight display

Hi, I'm new here n wish to getting my 1st Sony Vaio. Can someone suggest me tat where is the good place for buying Vaio?
If upgrade the ram, will the Sony Vaio warranty void?
I wish to get this model, VGN-NW25GF/T as its price still in my range. Any good suggestion? Thx.
*
good place to buy VAIO certainly at SonyStyle KLCC , MidValley or Curve. SonyCentre goes second as its run by third party usually. Best Denki or Harvey Norman aint bad either since they did offer their own warranty aside of sony warranty.

upgrade ram wont void the warranty.
suggestion: if you are not in budget, get the CW series at least.

Mid Valley is a Sony Center, not SOny Style.
Kinda ironic. The HQ for SOny is at Mid Valley City, so do its service center HQ but not the direct store. laugh.gif

kencsgoo: Upgrading the RAM wont void but it is recommended using back the RAM which use the same chipset. Usually VAIOs use Elipda chipset (Kingston).
*
i see, saw the contact at SonyStyle website and name as Sony Service Centre (HQ). whatever it is, if possible buy from those shop running by Sony.

Hi Miyabi, CW series? its price... sweat.gif NW series not good enough? Sorry for asking this coz Im still confuse bout Sony Vaio series. hehe...
U mean best is get it from Sony Style? Other then tat?



Added on January 26, 2010, 12:54 am

NW series will not continue anymore? so all they hav now is last stock? thx.
*
not that its no good, it just NW in mediocre category (e.g: lcd backlight is utilize on CCFL). maybe just me.
i suggest you play with the display model at SonyStyle and decide. tho, ive try the NS series before and i can say im srsly not satisfied with its built quality.
review if you are interested: http://forum.notebookreview.com/showthread.php?t=404074

Other shop would be Harvey Norman or Best Denki, besides the SonyCentre.
No news about the refresh NW so far.

hey guys,i just bought a 5.1 surround sound system for my vaio z series but i cant connect it to get a 5.1 surround system and it only give me 2 sound speaker...is it my laptop dont have sound card?can anyone help?
*
unfortunately no since the stock driver Realtek HD doesnt have the option to switch to 5.1 setting.
however the Realtek High Definition Audio Driver R2.37 works but im not sure will it works in VAIO Z.
my current audio setup is only via SonicStage.

the HDMI output however do support it via NVIDIA control panel as claimed by nbr VAIO Z user (hdmi user).

Its the all new Z series. Sony did pre-sales too prior to the launch of Vaio Z12.
Just a tradition. Sony loves to do pre-sales for flagship models.
and also the 6k Vaio Z doesn't comes with Optical Disc Drive.
*
yeah i noticed that. but really at 6k for such specs and lightweight, its like a netbook, but powerful. 3 usb port aint hurt for use one of them for external drive haha.

if you can wait and hold the purchase, i highly recommend you do that. else you will regret buying the one you dont favor. notebook purchase is once in awhile, say 3 years to most people.
