Today I found a great source with service manuals for Sony Vaio VGN series laptops and notebooks. Links to the service manuals were posted on one of the Russian forums (comment 13). Not sure for how long these service manuals will be available for downloads but they are the time of wringing this post. Some files are large and it might take some time to download them, so be patient.
All service manuals are in PDF format and you can download them using below mentioned links.

I was given a used Toshiba M35X-S111, and like to know the steps to put it back to its original setting. (I have the original CDs).
Thanks, David C
cj2600
David Chiu,
1. Insert the recovery disc into the DVD drive and restart the computers.
2. Press F12 as soon as Toshiba logo appears on the screen.
3. Using an arrow key select CD/DVD drive from the boot menu and press Enter. The laptop will start booting from the recovery disc.
4. Select “Load factory defaults” (of something like this, I don’t remember exactly).
5. Wait for 45-60 minutes.

I need to change the wireless card in my VGN-BX194VP. The VGN-BX manual looks really useful, but no mention is made of where the wireless card is located. I’m assuming it’s accessed by removing the keyboard. Can anyone help, please?
Thanks
cj2600
Ken Barton,
Open up the VGN-BX manual and take a look at the page 16, picture 1.
The wireless card is located on the left side from the PCMCIA slot. In order to access the wireless card you’ll have to remove the keyboard and then remove the bracket (page15 – picture 1 and 2).

Want to replace the cmos battery on VGN-640W and don’t know where to look. Manual available above shows disassembly instructions, but the cmos battery location not specified.
Can anyone help?
Thanks
cj2600
MajorCat,
I looked at the disassembly guide but didn’t find the CMOS battery either. The pictures are not very clear. Probably it’s located somewhere on the motherboard and it looks like a 10 cent coin.
RoninDave
Any one know how to disassemble a TZ? i got all the screws up but was not sure how to remove the end portion of the top cover where the two drums hold the screen. need to get my hard drive replaced as the drive got bad sectors.
thanks!!
MajorCat
FYI
The CMOS battery on the FS-640/W was located beneath the touchpad. Access was from the bottom, once the DVD drive had been removed and half the motherboard loosed to provide access to the plug/battery, which was attached to mobo with double-stick tape.

In the area when it is located there are 2 other capacitors to the left of it, if laptop is on table with battery location downward and cd/dvd burner to the left Numbers below this capacitor are PQ49 thou they do not goto this cap they’re just written right below it.To the left of this capacitor is two more capacitors like it and a black chip with this writing to left of that AF5AL FDS 6680A. What I need and would like some info on is the value of the capacitor so that I can purchase a replacement to solder it on and fix this sony laptop. Has anyone dealt with this type of issue? Does anyone have a service manual with laptop motherboard schematics? Any information would be greatly appreciated.

All you have to do is replace the defective hard drive with a new one. After that boot your laptop for the recovery disc and reimage the hard drive back to factory defaults. Just boot from the recovery dics and follow the wizard on the screen.

Try using “Last Known Good Configurations” option from the boot menu. You can get to the boot menu if you press F8 on startup.
Also, try booting in Safe Mode. If you can boot to the desktop try using System Restore utility and revert Windows back.

Does anyone know the part number for the Escutcheon (L) part for the sony vaio vgn-sz340P. It’s a silver part that’s on the left side of the laptop. The slot where the memory stick goes has a crack in it. I’m really having a hard time knowing if the parts that I’ve found are ther right one because I don’t have the part number.
valerie
I have a Sony VAIO VGNFS-790 that is having problems.
The “power” light is on, but the screen isnt. It doesnt even boot up or make noises, like it is completely dead.
When I unplug the charger, the “battery on” light turns on, and the “power” light stays on too. However, when I plug the charger into the computer to charge it, the “charging” light doesnt come on, or blink like it should, but the light on the charger box is green, meaning it is working fine.
PLEASE HELP! Any info would help. Thanks!
cj2600
Valerie,
Could be bad memory. If you have two memory sticks installed, you can remove them one by one and test the laptop with each stick separately.
If the laptop works fine with one module and will not boot with the second one, the last module is bad and has to be replaced.
Ash
Hello. I have a Sony VGN-A190 that is having problems with the power supply input port where the power plugs into the back of the computer. It is slightly loose and will not stay connected unless I have my hand on it and watch the battery-charge widget to make sure it is connecting and charging the battery. Can someone point me to a service manula for that 17 inch laptop? I would also like to upgrade the HDD and the internal RAM chip. Please help. Thanks, and all the best to you!

I am struggling. My boss, an eye doctor, just bought a Sony Vaio Z and wants me to get some of the programs that we use on all the other computers in the office installed to his laptop… well, I am unable to get these installed. I had a friend who is a computer wiz take a look and he couldn’t figure it out… are we missing something? For the amount this laptop cost we should be able to install a couple programs that we use daily in the office…
Thanks to anyone with ideas!
cj2600
Sheena,
Most likely his new Sony Vaio Z is running Vista OS. Right? It’s possible that your office software is compatible with Windows XP but not Vista.
Sheena
i think that is my problem.. will call the company… thanks

I have a sony vaio laptop (model no : VGN-CR11GH). I purchased this laptop last year from India. Three days ago it stopped working completely and It is not getting started. There are no LED displays. I tried holding the power button for 30 seconds and then releasing it, also removing the battery and then connecting it, but they was of no use. I also checked the ac adapter and it is working fine (the adapter has a led display which is glowing when i connect it to the power supply). Can anyone tell me what could be the problem.
Thanks.

Hi,
I need a service manual for a GRX-316 (or comparable model like GRX-416). Unfortunately it seems as the bad solder joints on the RAM-socket finally gave in. Additionally the HDD’s death is imminent. So I’m thinking of either disassembling and using the LCD and maybe other parts or getting the RAM-socket fixed. Any hints on successful projects using such an LCD as standalone screen attached to either VGA or DVI?
Thanks!

My daughterâs Sony VGN-CR120 right hinge broke. I got the part and got the screen out. From what I found on the internet, it looks like I have to pry up the top plastic around the keyboard. Thats where Iâm hesitating. I found a service manual for a VGN-C but the top plastic is a little different than this one.
Do you know if I really just pry the plastic top off carefully so I can get to the hinge screws?
Thanks in advance.

Does anyone have some idea where to find information on a Vaio VGN-CR120? I am trying to replace a hinge and need to get the keyboard/palmrest off to get to the screws. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

i have a sony vaio vgn-nr32L laptop that came with windows vista preinstalled. Now I want to change that to windows xp and i have tried several time but to no avail. It seems that the xp setup simply can’t recognise the hard drive. what do i do to get xp on my laptop?
cj2600
michael aidoo,
What do you mean the XP setup can’t recognize the hard drive? Does it give you an error message?
By the way, some laptop that come with Vista do not support XP. Before you jump in and reformat the hard drive, visit the Sony website and find out if they have device drivers for Windows XP.
vinchenzo
to the guy with the sony laptop with vista the reason why xp dosent regognise the hard drive is because the motherboard has no sata support in the bios as with all sony vaio’s have had this problem many times you need to find the correct raid driver for that motherboard install it on to a floppy and press f6 when prompted to install external raid drivers if the raid drivers are the correct ones xp will then see the hard drive and install xp. However you might not be able to find xp drivers for the motherboard devices ie. sound graphics etc…
Eric
My Sony Vaio is VGN-SZ18GP. One day my keyboard suddenly responded strangely. Some keys do not response. Some keys respond as other keys. For example, pressing a key like “j” (can’t remember exactly which letter, just take j as an example) will be responded as pressing “Delete”. Horrified, I reboot the computer. A lot of noises (beep-beep-beep) during the start up process. But the computer can start. But the keyboard problem persist. Please help.
cj2600
Eric,
This beep-beep-beep sounds like a stuck key on the keyboard.
I think it’s either bad keyboard or failed keyboard controller on the motherboard. Try replacing the keyboard first and if you still experience the same problem, apparently there is a problem with the keyboard controller. If that’s the case, you’ll have to replace the motherboard.
Gecko
Thank you so much for posting those links, my FE21s has something wrong with its Wifi switch (so no bluetooth or wifi unless i keep my finger pressed against the switch)!

“my FE21s has something wrong with its Wifi switch (so no bluetooth or wifi unless i keep my finger pressed against the switch)!”
In most cases, this is simply a matter of applying contact cleaner to the internal wireless switch. On rare occasions the motherboard will need to be replaced.

Thanx for the Sony repair manual links – sure appriciate it. The Sony’s are suipposed to be somewhat tricky to change even a HD or memory from what i understand – these will help.
Now if you run into a set of links for the exploded views with part numbers for ordering… that would complete what i need to fix my VGN-SZ460n.
I tried Sony , and though they’ll lopok up a part number via land line discription part by part – that risks a wrong part being sent…
They wouldn’t send the exploded views for reference of part numbers.
go figure…? lol
thanx again forthe PDF’s above

I have a Toshiba centrino laptop, it had been serving me 2 for years but now it has a problem with its LCD screen.The screen often goes off and becomes very dark, there isn’t any lighting on the screen, but when I look close to the screen, I can see the GUI display as it is normally working. Sometimes the screen goes off when playing film or music but the film or music sound is still playing, and I still can see the statement of the film still moving on in a very dim image. I am sure that my laptop is normally working except the backlight.When this problem happens, I close the lid and my laptop goes to standby mode,after that I open the lid and the screen it lit again, Sometimes I have to close and open several times to get it lit back. One thing very special, If I open the lid lower or equal 90 degree, It just flash in milisecond and then turns dark. If I open it more than 90degree, It works fine. But it’s not convenient to work with a laptop like tis. I don’t know what wrong with it. Anyone has good ideas? Please help me!
Wilson
above is my problem before i posted to another forum but no solution found.
I am sure that when dismantling the laptop, you have accidentally removed the tape sticked on the IB(inverter board). The IB is usually laid inside a transparent cubic plastic tube located under screen. Please take the IB out of the tube and wrap it with transparent sellotape around it as spiral shape from head to end till IB is fully wrapped. then re-insert inside the plastic tube and connect the power connectors at 2 heads. I am sure it will work fine forever,that’s amazing. Don’t think that the tape doesn’t effect to the problem, Yes, it really does. Remember not to remove any sellotape sticked on mainboard.
Vincent
Thank you for those links! I found this page because I want to repair my VGN-S150. It sometimes fails to pass the BIOS POST. When it fails, I’ll still get the power light, the battery light (when appropriate), and the Wireless light (when turned on), but there’s no LCD activity, and no Vaio sound (that’s the setting I turned to tell me BIOS POST was successful).
I suspect it’s either the ATI chip or one of the other unprotected chips (it’s either the Northbridge or Southbridge, but it sits to the left of the CPU and to the lower right of the ATI chip.
I think putting pressure on one or two chips could restore functionality to the laptop.
Any thoughts?

Looking for screen for Sony PCG-7Y2L
15.4 ” screen..Entire assembly or just LCD
cj2600
jeremy,
You can buy a brand new LCD screen for your Sony laptop on Amazon or ebay for about $70-80.
cj2600
Vincent,
Could be memory related problem. Have you tried removing RAM modules, reseting them, turning on the laptop with only one RAM module installed? Try that first.
If that’s the case, you’ll have to replace the motherboard. You cannot resolder/replace these chips at home.
TS
Model of my Sony Vaio laptop is VGNFJ1W. Recently there was an spark from the cooling vent area and it followed bit of smoke. After that the cooling fan stopped working. I also realized that there is a thin strip of line on my display.However, still the laptop is working.
I requested a quote from Sony Service and they wanted ÂŁ213 for the repair.That is beyond my affordability. Could anyone suggest me what might be wrong with the laptop?
cj2600
TS,
It’s possible that the fan problem is not related to the LCD problem and this is just a coincidence.
Is it enough just replace the fan or the whole motherboard has to be replaced? I don’t know. I cannot tell without looking at the laptop. From your description I assume that you have a fried component on the motherboard and replacing the cooling fan will not help.
TS
Dear cj2600,
I was also fearing that a component on the mother board is fried. However, when I followed your clues and checked both the motherboard and cooling fan area, I found out something interesting. Actually the smoke was coming from the dust gathered in the cooling fan area and I am still not sure about the sparks.
Anyway, after cleaning the 1 inch thik layer of dust from the vent area everything is back to normal. Even the display is ok.
Thank you very much for uploading the Service manual. It saved both money and time.
Bradford
thanks for your great help. I had to disassemble a VGN-N130G to pull the hard drive. could not have done it without your manuals. in pulling the keyboard, I knocked loose the right arrow key on the lower left hand corner. Is there a method of reattaching it, or should I find a replacement keyboard?
cj2600
Bradford,
Check out these instructions. A key fell off the laptop keyboard. Fixing the problem.
Vincent
To cj2600:
Thank you for your reply about my Vaio VGN-S150! I discovered one of my RAM chips was bad, indeed. The laptop didn’t even recognize it – I expected 512MB but got only 256MB. I ran MemTest86+ on the other good chip. I would look over every few minutes to check up on the program’s progress. On one occasion, I noticed the timer had not progressed and the progress bar looked erratic but working. I lifted the laptop with my right hand grasping the right side of the keyboard. The timer had jumped to its correct time and the progress bar displayed as expected. I put the laptop down and the timer froze. The progress bar went wonky again. MemTest86+ did report a good working RAM chip for at least one pass.
I’m starting to believe the ATI chip’s ball grid array is starting to come apart. Lifting the laptop gave its mainboard enough pressure in the right places to reconnect the BGA (ATI) chip. I got this laptop for free because it was no longer reliably working, so I’m very willing to try risky procedures and safer ones that may only provide temporary relief.
I’m thinking of placing a shim to put more pressure on the ATI chip to reconnect that ball grid array. I was thinking of putting rubber padding underneath the mainboard where the ATI chip is located. I was also thinking about taking the fan and heatsink off and putting one or even two thin copper or aluminum squares with thermal grease between the ATI chip and the heatsink. I’m not skilled enough to perform a solder reflow of the ball grid array.
If I totally wreck the motherboard, I can move on and figure out whether the Vaio’s LCD (on the VGN-S150) would fit a Macbook (or maybe even the 13.3-inch Macbook Pro).
I’d love to hear thoughts about the shim idea.
Thanks again for the reply!

Hi, I have a VGN-S150 laptop, but I just forget the BIOS password, and now i have no way to access my laptop. I have tried removed the cmos battery bur it does not help. I’ve heard that SONY stored the password in a security chip and it has to be replaced, but where is it?
Anyone has another way to bypass it? Thanks

Hi, I have a VGN-NR38GN/L laptop. Neither the modem nor the LAN ethernet port seem to be detected by the operating system – Vista Business. BIOS options seem to be extremely limited.
How do I enable the modem or LAN ports?
Batman
Thx. very much for the manual download đ
cj2600
ravi,
Could be software related problem.
Have you tried reinstalling device drivers for the modem and LAN?
If reinstalling drivers doesn’t help, back up all personal data and reinstall Vista from the recovery disc. If still no help, most likely you have a faulty motherboard and it has to be replaced.

Hi,
I have a Vaio VGN-FW140E and I’m looking to replace the screen. I’ve been looking for a service manual or some instruction on how to disassemble the screen with no result. If anyone can help, I would really appreciate it. Thank you.
Kevin
Thanks for the quick response. I’ve looked through some of them, but it seems the VGN-FW series is a little different. There are only 2 screws on top and the bottom seems to be attached to the hinge. I tried opening it up but could only get it to open halfway. There must be some hidden screws somewhere that I couldn’t see.
I will go through your guides again to see if I can get any clues.

Vickie,
It’s like asking an auto mechanic. “My car will not start, what’s wrong?”
I don’t know how your laptop fails and I cannot give you a good advice. Test the power adapter first. Make sure the laptop is getting power from the wall.
Raf
I have the 17 inch VGN-AR770. I am a little pissed off considering this laptop just past it’s 1 year mark and the warranty is expired. I have barely used it and left it in pristine condition.
Spontaneously the monitor will “freeze” the current image and then slowly turn white with some faint gray blotches. If I move the top of the laptop toward me, sometimes the image comes back to normal. If I move it backward, then the image freezes and goes white again.
External monitor works fine. I opened the top and bottom of the laptop, and checked the connection on both sides, it seems fine. Is it possible that the cable is getting squished in the hinge..judging from the fact that moving the top back and forth causes the problem to re-appear or go away? Lately I have been using the laptop without the LCD bezel, and I removed the left speaker to give the cable more breathing room. I think this is ridiculous! The problem does happen sponataneously so I don’t know if I’ve truly narrowed down the problem yet. Have you ever seen something like this?
Thanks! (love the website and I used the link for your AR service manuals!)
cj2600
Raf,
Your description sounds like a problem with the LCD screen. Apparently there is a bad solder joint somewhere on the LCD controller and it fails intermittently.

It depends on what kind of noise you have. In some cases cleaning the fan will help. If not, probably you’ll have to replace the fan.

cj2600
Charlie Blair,
Could be memory failure.
1. Try reconnecting memory modules, make sure they make good connection with the slots.
2. Try removing memory modules one by one. Test the laptop with each module separately. One of the modules could be bad and the laptop will start when the bad module is removed.

Hello I have A Sony Laptop PCG-5G3L. Yesterday, I was watching a video online and my computer was on the charger. Then, all of a sudden, the computer shut down, and made a crashing type of sound, which worried me. Then, after A minute, I pressed the power button to on the computer and the power was not working, meaning the computer just does not turn on , and I tried so hard to turn it on, but it just does not. Can you tell me what the problem might be as to why my laptop just does not turn on? Are there any solutions? I mean I had files in my computer and I am just so worried about it. Please, I would be happy if I can be contacted ASAP. Thanks so much!
Eduardo
Hello Priyanka:
I don’t know if you have the problems with the second ram (just take out the two rams and just place one at a time to test it, use one slot and then try with the other slot) May be with just one ram you can turn on your laptop. Another thing that you can do (to recover your files) it’s to take the hard drive and put it in a portable case and read it from another PC. Good Luck.

Depends on the model. In some cases you have to disassemble the entire laptop.
cj2600
FArrukh,
Could be memory failure. Try replacing the memory module with a new one and test the laptop again.
Do you have two memory modules in your laptop? Try removing them one by one. If one of the modules is bad, the laptop will start properly when the bad module is removed.
If replacing memory doesn’t help, your electrician could be right. It’s possible that you have failed video card (in most laptops integrated into the motherboard).
cj2600

Probably the keyboard has to be replaced.

Garfield said: “Tried your guide for VGN-N but there still seems to be something holding the keyboard as I am unable to release the 5 tabs.”.
On my VGN-BX196VP, I was thinking there must be another screw involved until I found that Sony had applied some *glue* between the underside of the keyboard and the underlying aluminium cover plate.
So the trick is to keep prising the keyboard at the end where the 3 screws were and it will eventually unstick.

Hi
This is Khondker from Bangladesh. My father bought me a Sony( Vaio -VGN SR43G) from Malaysia. It was working fine for 4 months. But now a problem has appeared.
The problem is – When I switch on or power my laptop. It starts.
The power indicator light remains green .But my Lcd screen appears black. It doesnât has brightness or light. I reinstalled my system, but no progress. At the time of booting, my screen shows light for 1 second, after that it remains black. If I plug other monitor it shows the screen there properly. But my laptop screen remains black.
What should I do? Please answer me with your help.

Hi. The hard drive on my Sony Vaio VGX-TP3 just died (not really a laptop – it looks more like an oversized ice hockey puck) and I’m a little confused as to how to get into it. The bottom panel was easy enough to remove, but that only gets me access to the RAM and the Wireless card.
Anybody have any clues or links to manuals that show me how to get at the hard drive?
If it’s closer to the top of the unit, is there an easy way to take the top off?

Hi,
I bought a second hand sony vaio VGN-FZ20. It worked perfectly fot 2 weeks, and then vertical red stripes appeared on the screen. My local technician said it was impossible to repair: something to do with a tfs (?) – kind of lamp at the base of the LCD screen.
Searching on the internet, I found that there is a recurrent grapic card problem on vaio fz series.
I’m searching for the manual to try to check inside.
Is it possible to fix this problem?
Thanks
cj2600
max,
Maybe CCFL (bakclight) lamp which is located inside the LCD screen, usually on the bottom of the screen?
Nope, it doesn’t sound like the backlight lamp failure. A failed backlight lamp wouldn’t cause vertical red stripes on the screen.
tastiersub
Hi.
I have a VGN-CR515E, and shortly after purchase my trackpad stopped working. I have looked all over for problems, and apparently Vaios have a lot of problems related to the trackpad.
Will one of these guides be able to help me fix my trackpad so I don’t have to pay Sony way more than they deserve to fix a problem I shouldn’t even have in the first place?
cj2600
tastiersub,
Maybe the trackpad simply disabled?
I don’t remember Sony VGN-CR515E model off the top of my head. On some models there is a dedicated trackpad button to enable/disable it. On other models you can enable/disable trackpad through a shortcut on the keyboard.
Also take a look at the trackpad software installed on your laptop. You can enable/disable it though software.

Hello,
I have Sony Vaio VGN SZ 71 model laptop. The left half of the screen lights up but it doesn’t display. Toward the right half of the screen it appears to be fine.
I am not sure if it is the screen or an inverter or something else. I would really appreciate some guidance.
Thanks
Ashish
cj2600
Ashish,
This is NOT inverter problem, that’s for sure. The screen backlight still works, it means the inverter board works properly.
I think this is LCD screen failure and you’ll have to replace the screen.

It’s hard to tell if you have hardware or software related issue.
Here’s something you can try.
Use an external USB mouse. Go to the device manager and find entry for the touchpad (could be reported as PS/2 compatible mouse). Right click on the touchpad and uninstall it. Restart the laptop and let it re-detect the touchpad.

Hi guys, I have a sony vaio vgn-a197vp which is now 6 or 7 years old. Although the laptop is old, whenever I go to my mothers house I still use it, doing so now (ubuntu and xp).
The laptop currently has 1.250 GB of mem and I can still browse but every time that I need to push it a bit đ it hangs a allot.
One of the things I love (i really like the quality) about this laptop is the 17′ 1920×1200 screen and keyboard, specially the screen in my opinion unbeaten by new screens being produced now.
So my question if someone can help me is, is it hard to upgrade all the hardware inside and keep at least the screen?
Thanks
Orlando

Orlando,
Laptops are not very upgradeable. There are not many parts you can upgrade, except memory, hard drive and in some cases CPU.
It looks like your Sony Vaio vgn-a197vp can take up to 2GB RAM (two 1GB modules), so you can upgrade memory.
Also, this laptop is old and most likely running a 4200RPM IDE hard drive. You can speed up the laptop by upgrading to a 5400RPM or even better 7200RPM hard drive. This requires OS reinstall or cloning.

Anybody know where I can get a service manual for a VGN NW26M? Both the keyboard and touchpad have stopped working, although F2 and F8 work when booting. New hard drive fitted with fresh install, this did not help.

Looking for instructions on how to remove/replace the optical drive. Model VGN-NS 150D. Not a very common model apparently. Might as well do an overhaul if I can get the relevant manual. I’m half-sure it has another model number….but what? Help?
cj2600
@ Jer’
Look for two screws securing the DVD drive on the bottom of the laptop.
If you not sure which screws securing the DVD drive, try removing all screws located under the drive. After that try pulling the DVD drive from the laptop.

Does anybody knows why my Sony Vaio VGN-CR510E lcd screen started to go white with white lines and fades away?when I press the screen and move it forward or backward it runs normally?pls don’t tell me to buy new screen :((( although any comments will be appreciated!
cj2600
@ Jordana,
Before you buy a new screen, you should check connection between the video cable and LCD screen. It’s possible the connection is loose and reconnecting the cable will fix the problem.

Hi,
I have seen red ants crawling into and out of my Sony Vaio laptop Model PCG-71311W. I checked with a service center close to my place but they seem to be more focused on how much they can fleece me. They suggested the computer would need repair in addition to cleaning, as soon as I mentioned red ants. Plus I cannot visit that city for another three weeks. Any suggestion as to what I can do to prevent further damage till I can get to a service center? I live in a not so well-connected town in India.
Thanks.

I have a Sony Vaio pcg-9111L, also known as a vpcec390x. I was dumb and took it on a camping trip over a very rough road. It did not like that. Now it GPFs regularly. A memory diagnostic did not turn up anything with the RAM. I want to disassemble it to see if there is something that jarred loose, etc. I am looking for a guide to disassemble the body of the sucker. It is not at all obvious. Even a guide to replacing the keyboard would be a help, as that would get me into the case.
There are no obvious tabs, screws, etc., that suggest a way in. Any help appreciated.

Marque Blundell
Hi ther was wondering if you can help us my sony VAIO VGN-C15GP there are vertical “lines” on the screen Bright and dark picture is there any idears?
cj2600
@ Marque Blundell,
Can you test your laptop with an external monitor?
If external video works fine and the problem appears only on the laptop screen, it could be one of the following:
1. Bad connection between the video cable and LCD screen or motherboard. Reseating connections might help.
2. LCD screen failure.
3. Bad video cable.
Take a look at the following posts for more info:

Hi..I have sony vaio VPCEB2Z0E high end model. It just happened to me that today morning i folder my laptop in normal way without shut down just like sleep mode. I usually do this from past 1 year or so. Surprise that, when i came and try to start my laptop, i see that alomost half of my screen (Bottom) went white..i see that mouse pointer is not going below that half screen..but when i click randomly..its opened whatever stored there. Now i have no idea what went wrong as i did not do anything with laptop. I even completely restored the laptop with factory settings..but still that half white screen is coming..(Usually the screen is not totally white..some icons or any items behind are look like faded..but cant see though). Can some one pls help me as what could be the problem and laptop dont have warranty anymore. pls help.
cj2600
@ Ranjeet,
This sounds like a problem with the LCD screen. I’m afraid, you’ll have to replace the screen.
There is a chance of bad connection between the video cable and LCD screen but probably it’s just a faulty screen.
If you can, try reseating the video cable on the back of the screen first. If it doesn’t help, replace the screen.
It’s kind of like example 5 in the following post: http://www.laptoprepair101.com/laptop/2006/08/17/bad-video-on-lcd-screen/

cj2600
@ Gabriel,
Your description is not very clear. If I understand correctly, your laptop turns on but all you getting is a black screen.
Can you see any faint image on the screen at all?
Can you test your laptop with an external monitor and find out if external video still works?
If there is no video on internal/external screens, check laptop memory. Maybe this is memory related problem.

Do someone know where I could find an assembly guide to VGN-NR285E?
Thanks,

cj2600
@ Kathleen,
I’ve seen it happening on some laptops and I don’t really like it. Normally you shouldn’t see any changes (besides maybe screen dimming) when you plug/unplug the AC adapter.
I cannot tell if it’s normal without looking at the laptop. It depends on the way it flickers. Probably it’s not normal.
Can you exchange it for a new one? Is it still covered by the store warranty (usually 2 weeks in the US).

Grateful for any help!!!

Take a look at the screen bezel. The name is probably in the lower right corner.
Look in the laptop device manager. If you have a Bluetooth card installed it should appear in the device manager.

I came across this in a search for information on a VAIO PCG-71312L. Would most of the Vaio’s have similar assembly instructions?

Sounds like a possible motherboard failure.
If you need to access data, you can remove the hard drive and connect it to another working computer using an external USB enclosure as I explained in this post.

have a vaio fj-170, sound does not work. At first crackly sound suggesting loose contact, now nothing (except windows sound at boot up is normal). Where could there possibly be a loose wire etc. Looked at dis-assembly pdf, but unable to find sound card wire etc., if it’s there somewhere.
Any suggestions???
Thanks
cj2600
@ robert,
This could be driver related issue. If you hear Windows sound at boot up, your laptop hardware works properly.

Many problems with my Sony vaio
VGN- S5M / S
I know it dates .
It heats , burns , and the fan makes a lot of noise for about a year .
The spring and summer I have to put a real fan nearby, not one of these little ventilos office made ââin China , not a true ultra powerful air blower brewer . There , no more problem . But it is spring and it is not yet warm enough for the presence of this ceiling fan is bearable because there is me turns me off . ( ! !)
So I’ll change the model , but I certainly do not redeem sony .
More I opted for Norton360 first edition pftttttttt it starts at any time in the background and pump the ram while aggravating overheating.
Norton is crap.
Sony crap.
Microsoft Windows : scammers with their requests for updates untimely day.
Bing hotmail shit it is even difficult to remove .
Here is my humble testimony.
