Err wanna ask..i'm using vaio..but older model la..now the problem is my battery state 100% fully charge but when i'm disconnect the power source the laptop turn off...dont know the battery kong already or what?

battery rosak loh... if under warranty bring back to sony. else u can source it from lyp or lyn...

yes, you need 64bit OS for 4gb ram support, but do mind that its advisable to get the same brand of ram instead of mixing with the factory ram. say buying 2gb ram Kingston must be pair with same 2gb ram Kingston, so you wouldn't have timing issue later.

having video lag is probably refer to codec use and also running program on background. i would like to suggest you to do clean install of video codec (cccp codec) and reinstall them again. and play the video via MPC instead of WMP. and also check the running program on background. maybe some unnecessary program running heavily behind thus making video playback lag.

yes you can. i just give some common way here.
1. turn on bluetooth on VAIO.
2. turn on bluetooth on hp and let it discover the bluetooth point (in this case your PC name will be appear).
3. choose the pc name and connect. first time connect will require you to choose the security key. just type any key you prefer on PC. and key in same key on the phone.
4. transfer start.
5. check the file inside My Document, under blootooth folder.

thanks Miyabi

anytime.

btw, seem i was wrong in earlier post. theres a refresh for low end FW4 series, namely FW43.
price starts at RM3599 and the specs, you guys can view it here:
http://corp.sony.com.my/vaio/vaio_fw43.html

for fw46 from the above site, theres a typo on ram capacity, which is, 4gb instead of 5gb and the graphic card (both model) is HD4650(iinm on FW43, but FW46 is confirm using this card) instead of HD3470..oh well, typo so commonly at sony site.

so the correct spec of fw43 is 2.1Ghz, 3gb ram ? very confuse wif it cos beside of the page show this

"VGN-FW43G/B
VAIO FW Series

Intel® Centrino® Processor Technology, Intel® Core™2 Duo Processor P9600 (2.80 GHz)

Model Features: 16.4" wide (WXGA++: 1600 x 900) TFT colour display (Clear Bright LCD [Rich Colour]), 5 GB DDR2 SDRAM*3 (upgradeable up to 4 GB*4), 400 GB*5 (Serial ATA, 5400 rpm).

RM 3,599.00"

it different from the specification.. but i think it laos cant possible be 2.8Ghz =p

just for information:
SR4 (ATI 4570) = 4143 in 3DMark06 (Intel P8700 2.53ghz, 4gb DDR2 RAM)
FW4 (ATI 4650) = 5585 in 3DMark06 (Intel T6500 2.10ghz, 4gb DDR2 RAM) **author note: more scores if it use P8700.

is there anything i have to do with the graphic card on my Z series? i tried playing call of duty...mine lagg like hell...but my friend's inspiron 1420 8400M GS so smooth...all his laptop specs lower than mine but mine so damn sux...why ar?

eww... i am not considering fw43 anymore... now only i saw it is using Centrino processor, not centrino 2 ><

my Z has 9300....whichh is better than 8400m gs....

Is the VGN-Z48 available in Malaysia yet... cannot find from vaio product page....they are in singapore's sony page...

hello vaio people!
anyone heard abt this laptop and weather it is available in malaysia?

http://www.sonystyle.com/webapp/wcs/stores...10551&langId=-1

Z48 is already available here.

What Z48?

Z series not for gaming. 9300m gs is just tiny upgrade from 8400 failure card. should have no problem.
you need to lower down the setting to play smoothly. i just complete playing cod4 with no problem (dont know which cod you are playing), but with low setting of course. check your total processes and running program on background. tweak your pc if possible so it would faster

hi, not a vaio peeps, just someone who admire of japan's made product
not sure, but absolutely late to arrive for Asia market. or maybe none at all, just like the G series.

weird, ive no such problem for cod4 both in stamina (yes i do play them in this mode too ROFL) and speed mode, srsly..
maybe you can try all low in graphic setting and set to no AA and use the lowest available reso. if problem still persist, really slightly no clue whats up with your Z

about warcraft, dota i assume, maybe its something related to Vista compatibility?. best if you just using stamina mode only since Intel usually support oldies stuff and less hassle, or maybe try running it in directx 9? liek -dx9 in the shortcut trick?. i dont play this game..so no much comment.

btw to conclude out there, if you guys thinking buying Z just solely for gaming, you guys are wrong. 9300m gs is weak gpu to handle current game, and heat management on nvidia gpu/cooling system in Z not really good. if you want opt for gaming yet maintaining the portability i would recommend SR4 series in a heartbeat.

cheers
ps: i still love Z anyway.

anybody using vaio p here?

i didnt buy a Z for gaming. Juz a little bit surprised to see tht my friend's inspiron 1420 ran warcraft 3(not dota....enfo team survival) and CoD4 smoother than me. All his specs lower than mine...but still better... really dono where to hide my face lol.

edit: i tried playing in stamina mode...and WTF...it ran smoother!!....shyt..wht problem?
