Hi peeps I'm back...

Am FW user and I faced this prob quite some time.
I do remember that there's a programme appeared last time at the bottom right icon for "mouse control" such as pressure tap etc.
It's gone now, how can I solve this?

And 1 more prob, when I plug in pendrive, it will sometime said the device support 2.0, and may be run faster if plug to 2.0 USB port? Impossible mine are not USB2.0, though~~!
*
Try go to Control Panel.
Mouse -> Miscellaneous -> Tray Icon (Tick)

About the USB, try replug. Sometime this happened, nothing wrong with the USB port at your notebook.

I have a problem with my z-series laptop...
Where can i replace the led screen for 13.1 inch?
any opinions?
*
like the rest said, if its under warranty, try send it back to repair. maybe there some chance getting it replace for free. whats the problem anyway?
to replace the whole panel of 13.1 screen for Z, im afraid it would cost expensive.

hi all

anyone here using atom processor and have problem with youtube?

my X on few occassion hang , whole thing freeze and the fan goes crazy.. spinning extremely fast.. maybe somekind of thermal shutdown..

any ideas?
*
not sure, but have you check the task manager? maybe some unwanted programme running behind which lead to heavy process running. best if you do some cleanup like running the av scan or malware scanning at least (malwarebyte does the job for this).

if this kind of problem already start from the day you get your notebook, my best bet is its time to uninstall the bloatware , or best still, do fresh install and do some tweak (disable aero etc).
just giving some thought.

i just bought sony vaio sb which you need to unscrew the cover to take out the battery....

i found there is one feature called vaio battery care function which you can set % of charge...

does it really uncharge the after hit the % you set or will make the battery last longer like we take out the battery?
*
It will stop charging. The most concern here is the heat generate by the notebook which would affect the battery lifespan (depend on where you place the notebook). The battery best to keep it cool and if possible avoid of any massive heat.

Since the batt are screw into the notebook, maybe you can try run some program that utilize the cpu and gpu process. Observe the heat spread. If its until the battery, better to plug it out if only you working with program that require fully cpu and gpu process all the time.

Just my 2cents.

Hey, I accidentally dropped my beloved Vaio Y Series VPCYA15FG and the LED screen cracked. It is still covered by warranty for another 2.5 years but I gut guess is that accidental damage is not covered by the warranty or is it? Does anyone know how much will it cost to replace the LED screen? And will you recommend to go for 3rd party repair? Thanks for your 2cents in advance!
*
Unfortunately, yes.. accidental damage is not covered. But you can always try your luck send it for repaired. If they mention about cost (service and parts), then compare it with the 3rd party.
If its expensive, try the 3rd party repair, tho its not really recommended unless the 3rd party are familiar and competent with the VAIO repairs and parts.

Just giving some thought.

WARNING - Sony Malaysia does not have the right technical AND customer relations ability...they cannot even decide how to resolve a Black Screen problem after giving me the run around, wasting my time, effort and transportation costs as well as the most important thing which is TRUST and RESPECT.....Ive already written to the Ministry of Consumer Affairs' tribunal section....
Costs me about GBP 1,500-00 for a Vaio VGN A517S way back in 2009 and Id expected a very skilled technical AND customer relationship level from a world class brand that has lost its place to Samsung :-)))
And Sony Malaysia has et to provide me a guarantee that there will never be a black screen problem if I were to agree to their last so called expert diagnostic!!!!
*
what happened?
and which service centre did provide lousy service? you seem having bad experience with them. i see you have an UK spec A series. maybe this related to VAIO International Warranty (I assumed you have it purchased). im not sure about the tos for VAIO International Warranty between UK and Malaysia tho. sorry.
my last experience went to service center was at The Curve, last two years. not bad for customer interaction and service.

I'm about to purchase my first Vaio.

1. Is Vaio SA series available in MY?
2. Can I customize what spec I want for my Vaio like "VAIO Owner Made" in JP?

1. Only SB for now
2. Nope you cant.

From the online store (sonystyle), currently only 3 series available. Its kinda slow progress for new VAIO to get announce/release.

Going to buy Sony Vaio YB soon, do anyone here were let down by this netbook?

* heard my friend of friend using Vaio (not sure model) says can't install other retail o/s is it true?
*
It seem that the official drivers only cover the Windows 7 32 bit OS. But user still can use the 32 bit driver for Windows 7 64 bit.

Some user feedback:
1. Fan a little bit humming / noisy
2. 3.5 to 4 hours battery life
3. Mediocre built quality

The drivers can be found here: http://www.sony-asia.com/support/product/vpcyb15ag

Anyone replace keybioard before? Mine seems to be going to spoilt soon as I can tell from the sounds when I press on it. It's CW16... how much does it cost?

Never did that. Your best bet is to call the customer support.

does it overheat till it shut down?
playing games definitely generate heat.
like other mention, provide the temp reading if possible. usually the core temp for cpu will get heat higher than the gpu temp reading.

I saw VAIO SB16 selling at only RM2999 from BEST Subang Parade.

With that price, will it be a solid contender to ASUS' U31SD?
*
maybe. asus having optical drive as external drive while the VAIO comes in one pack (both at almost similar weight with VAIO having like slightly little lighter).
your choice smile.gif
