What is the maximum hard drive supported by the Sony Vaio VGC-V617G? I want to increase the speed of the drive from 7,200 to 10,000+RPM; the closest drive I can find is the WD3000HLFS (300GB). Will this work?

Contact Sony Support and purchase a Factory Recovery DVD. If you have a Factory Recovery Partition use it to do a Factory Recovery.

if you're not sure if a module is right for your system, use the Crucial Memory Advisor tool for a list of guaranteed compatible modules.

first you will need to select the manufacturer from a drop down list then select your product line from a drop down list then select the model then click find it will take you directly to compatible ram also you will have an option to scan your system

you should always ask for a guarantee on the compatibility before making any purchase and try to buy for working pairs if possible

hope this helps

The hard drive is located in the rear of the base. Remove the black plastic cover. Just look for the black screws holding it in then pull it back and up. The hard drive is held in place by four screws on the back side. Some components in this PC are for laptops however the hard drive is a standard PC size and connections.

using the menu button on your monitor, find the icon that indicates an arrow pointing left and right. increase the value until the image reaches the egde of the screen. if this doesnt cure your problem, you may need to adjust your screen resolution in the display feature located in your control panel to 1024x768 . this setting should fit most any flat panel monitor screen size. if its not what you like, you can choose from the multiple options to find the resolution that best fits your preference. be sure to hit the apply button when you are satisfied with your selection.

The hard drive is in the base. Don't waste time trying to figure out how to get the back off. Just take the cover off the base and it will be obvious how to get it out from there. Don't take it to a service center. This is an easy job.

there will be a screw at the back side of your laptop
which will be 10-12 cm from the side and at the centre line of your dvd ROM
remove it and slowly pull out your dvd rom

Is it only when your PC is Idle for 40 minutes?
