hi there, try to contact sony and ask about it. The 3 months extended warranty is only valid if you register your sony product within 7 days from the day you purchase. Just try to call them or go to sony service center and tell them your situation, i assume her laptop cant turn on? if it is motherboard kaput, try and use the fan issue to make an argument.

owh me? im sorry.. it just the 4570 is begging for some action

install some mmorpg, the vga is overkill , maybe a 4500 is sufficient enuf lol

try to get some latest demo. n my gf already beging me to install sims 3, which i wont, or she will be flocking all over ma sr55

ya i know the lid setting for shutdown but i duwan to use that, me use it as sleep/hibernation

anyway let me ease ur pain abit..

dunno wat's wrong with my vaio..the area nearby GPU have noises coming out ..anyone experience that before for cs36gj series

i nvr dissembled it. bcoz dat place is where all da heat comin out so i assume it is the place where GPU located.
so what can i do about those noises?

guys i have a problem with my vaio fw. i was using it last night and it suddenly got shut down by itself.

what OS do u use is it the same like Vista's memory boost? coz im on windows 7 n would like to try this

yep  MASS EFFECT 2 is a nice graphical games, i enjoice it very much on me desktop pc, wondering can HD4570 handle it?

EDIT : found about it me self

For a device to be compatible and useful it must conform to these requirements:

    * The removable media's capacity must be at least 256 MB (250 MB after formatting). Windows Vista x86 & x64 is limited to using 4 GB; this restriction has been removed in Windows 7.
    * Windows 7 allows up to eight devices for a maximum of 256 GB of additional memory. [5]
    * The device must have an access time of 1 ms or less.
    * The device must be capable of 2.5 MB/s read speeds for 4 KB random reads spread uniformly across the entire device, and 1.75 MB/s write speeds for 512 KB random writes spread uniformly across the device.
btw, DalphinusS, what kinda SD card do u use?

now thats bad.. really unlucky for ya.
yep, dont buy sony VAIO anymore, its expensive and bad quality. brand like Asus is the one you should look for.

speaking of game, this is the game ive done playing just now

yup, thats the name, BIOHAZARD 5 Alternative Edition (or Resident Evil 5 Gold Edition).
already state there, ps3
erm not fps, its survival horror 3rd person shooter.

as for pc, its known as Resident Evil 5, but the alternative edition includes expansion which are additional another 2 mission, Desperate Escape and Lost in Nightmare, costumes, Mercenaries Reunion Mode, and Versus Mode and other goodies.

i got 8gb sd class 6 but i cant seem to find it .. really2 wanted to see how it goes

doesnt win 7 capable up to 256gb with 6 device?

sigh.. where the darn card
nice gal game

me ps3 is eating dust at the moment so long dn play, i even got 1 unopen game .. busy mode is busy

reformat it to ntfs should do the trick as fat32 is limited to 4gb , mine now full 8gb dedicated to readyboost, n i must say for rm70 bucks it worth the upgrade! loading games are now faster! 



n i learn also its not all about storage space its about speed too.. so the faster the sdhc spec, the better!
congrat! i think all lappy battery oso got "lock" maybe should unlock 1st ? check the manual oso..

Its not really to replace the RAM. But even if you have big RAM, you would still need to have pagefile, which reside on the hdd. Its this that being moved to the SD card, dedicated for the pagefile only...
This would give better response as the pagefile doesn't need to compete with other hdd activity... Though it still depends on the SD card speed...

Virtual Memory is made of RAM + pagefile (HDD)
Pagefile is not RAM, its just a portion of hdd being used as RAM and they will swap content from time to time with RAM.
The one that making the lag is when swapping the content from pagefile to RAM, due to the slow hdd + hdd always being used for other activity, in this case, memory boost dedicated a thumbdrive/SD card to do that job, hence they should give better performance than a busy hdd in handling the swapping of the pagefile because the thumbdrive/SD card just need to take care one job(pagefile).

More ram is better, but still, there are some application insist on using pagefile even if you have a lot of ram left.

As explained before, Virtual Memory is RAM + Pagefile..
Which on the attachment, its the max size for PF Usage or you can see on the Commit Charge 2598M/3412M
That's coming from 3GB RAM + 512MB pagefile = 3412MB Virtual Memory (3GB is roughly around 29xxMB)
[attachmentid=1465966]

As for what the need of those, basically its RAM, just that one is slower and one is much faster.
And how it will be applicable, that's being handled by the OS or by the programmer, we the user, pretty much can't do anything with it.

The one being set aside in HDD is what being called as pagefile...
In this case, I reduced it to 512MB only...

As for Windows 7, not really familiar with it, even on the Task Manager, Performance tab, not showing about PF Usage?
or you check from dxdiag, add the number on Pagefile
VMemory = Used + Available

well. ure question is itself , a self explanatory answer! basically its a overclock function to let ur cpu run at higher clock. and what we got at higher clock cpu speed? well i dont think ure need an answer for that very basic computing question

do tell us tho, if u use the turbo boost function, how fast will it eat the battery?  i havent got a clue.

lee_what2004, what are u running when u take that screenis? 100% cpu with over 2gb commit charge?!

Well, it mostly depends on your application whether he can utilize the extra cores or not.
The main thing is optimization, the same thing with HyperThreading which also introduced in the Core i-series.

As for
Imagine 4 ppl with moderate working speed VERSUS 1 ppl of fast working speed.
Yes, its feasible, if only the working can be done parallel, if not? They would be waiting one of them to finish first and let the next person to continue it.

Well, this is assuming discussing 4 persons vs 1 person doing 1 job at one time(since this is how computer works). If you meant 4 persons vs 1 person doing a lot of different jobs, then yes, you are right.

Since the Turbo Boost works depending on the applications. If it support 4 cores, then it run at 1.6ghz, if only support 2 cores, then it runs at 2.6Ghz and so on...
