try google the problem about " Desktop is not accessible " or the whole text of that error. the problem occurred due to the change on your privilege on certain folder. iinm.
some say its related to Vista dock.
anyway, boot in safe mode, system restore before the update?
there alot of solution available anyway. its related to OS. not the hardware.

I just googled up the whole error and there seem to be a lots of solution. I will try it and update here. Thank you.

hi i decided to get a fw notebook, but in a dilemma on choosing which version of FW to get
here's the 2 fw i had in mind.
FW33 - 3588
FW12 - 3488

i know that fw12 is an obsolete model, but it's having better processor than fw33 (p8400 vs t6400, got this from www.sony.com.my comparison chart). the only difference i can c between the model is the centrino technology in fw33 which is not in fw12.

is it advisable to get obsoleted model? i called sony about the warranty and they say warranty for obsoleted recent purchased models are still supported by them.

help??

cheers

i'll say get the updated one. since notebook is not like desktop where the upgrade can be done anytime.

sr13 for 3.5k, a good bargain? or should i go for fw23 instead? help guys

fw23 better la.. value for money

depend on your purpose. mobility sr, else fw.

yea but bigger screen always the better ma..

personal choice. thats why i said its depend on purpose.
im using vaio mostly its mobility and yet satisfying performance on the go.

btw sr = led support backlight.
fw = ccfl support backlight.

sr wins in long term of lcd lifetime anyway.

but again, its all your personal choice.

some seen offering sz483 3.3k.. how about that? mobility not really an issue. been lugging AR around for quite some time

what about the price sr13 seems ok to me as retail around 4988? but fw23 i checked i though like 3488? sorry if i'm wrong

but both sr13 n fw23 are obsolete model.. R you sure u wan to get that?

I intend to buy the Z series (special edition model) during the PC fair but buy at Sony Style. the offer is the same.

good for ya. i might settle with TT series maybe, but not buying in a hurry since my notebook still working well.
anyway, just got the battery pack, VGP-BPS2C (5200mAh) for 400 bucks. there goes my salary expenditures ha ha.

Just remember buy at your own risk !

theres more than just o.26ghz different..
p8600 is a penryn class processor .....and the size is smaller 45nm ..plus the FSB is 1033 ....wayyyyy faster than T5800..which is a merom class pros...65nm in size and up too 800 fsb.
FSB is front side bus... the bigger they are the better it is...


by the way here in NZ the z26 cost only rm5700!!!! if u add 300 to that u will get 1 yr international service!!!!1

awesome price there. and welcome

oi TS, starter..add me in this club too!

as a proud owner of VAIO Z36GD series...habis aku punya bonus & overtime

it's an impulse buy really, but seems that the Vaio P only looks good in pictures but so-so specs looks in real life. then I looked into the TT series, so small, but less powerfull....CS series, if not it's made of plastic body i'll settle on that one. but i want a truly high end laptop with non plastic body, there goes the Vaio Z!

cool. ts already retired from vaio club.
anyway, you bought the gothic arabesque or just a plain one?
welcome to the club

yea, TT proc aint powerful like Z , its targetting to total mobility user. but im satisfied with its build quality rather than its previous namely TZ series.

Is it true that at present the Z series is the best model?

i can say yes because its portable and yet powerful machine ever available on market.
at size of 13.1" and weight around 1.6kg, its sits between notebooks and sub-notebooks. any users can use this product from a businessman to multimedia user. the hybrid gpu switch is convenient at it states, requires less time for gpu change whenever you feel to use gpu demanded software.

built quality wise, its similar with TT-series. in other words, sony produce 2 premium product of theirs which are Z series and TT series.
i suggest you to sit for some time at sony store, playing the product you wanted to buy, and decide.
