20 Most Recent Sony VAIO PCV-W600G PC Desktop Questions & Answers

If you hit some keys and then it starts - it indicates a stuck key on the keyboard. Check the keys to make sure they are all fully up and nothing has been spilled on them or gotten stuck under them. Keys can be removed usually by prying gently under the edge and replaced by pressing down firmly. Probably what is happening is the if a program opens and you see a series of 4's is that the "4" key is the one sticking partially and preventing boot up. The beeeep is simply to tell you something is wrong with hardware, ie: keyboard, mouse, memory will all generate a long beep or several short beeps. The owners manual will list beep codes to help you determine where to look to find the problem.

Have the same problem. After chatting with the online help, they informed me that I need to purchase the original discs to get this software. When I try to do that it says that they are no longer available and neither are the replacements. I emailed them for an answer to the problem. I saw on a forum that there are companies that have the discs, but so far I havent found them. BUMMER!

To uninstall the software Deep Freeze must first be disabled and then uninstalled.

To disable Deep Freeze:

1. Hold down the shift key and double-click on the Deep Freeze icon. Alternatively, you can press Crtl-Alt-Shift-F6. You should now see a password dialog.
2. Enter your password and click OK. If you have not yet entered a password you should be able to click OK without entering anything. You should now see a dialog with boot options.
3. Select "Boot thawed" and click OK. This will disable Deep Freeze on the next reboot.
4. Reboot your machine. After the machine reboots you are ready to uninstall Deep Freeze.

To uninstall:

1. Locate the installation file you used to install Deep Freeze to this machine. By default the name of this file is called "DF5Std.exe" for versions 5.X and "DF6Std.exe" for versions 6.X.
2. Run the installation file (DF5Std.exe or DF6Std.exe).
3. Select the option to "Uninstall"
4. The software should uninstall and reboot the machine. When the machine reboots, Deep Freeze should be uninstalled.

I just finished working on a pcv-w510g and in my case it seems some liquid was dropped on it, and the chip is messed up. (i saw this when i opened it). you can try to:
Plug in another keyboard and type in the password.  Try to acess the bios and disable stop on keyboard errors. Or open the keyboard and unplug it compleatly if it helps.
Or take out the HDD and put it in an external enclosure or in another pc to get the data off.

Hi Eva, I already answered other of your questions, and if your hard drive is still working, you can use an USB/SATA/IDE adapter so you can use it as an external hard drive, and then you can browse in to your hard drive to find all you info (C:\users\your name\documents), and then copy it in to your laptop.

Hi Eva!If your desktop is crashed, then you will need to verify if its internal hard drive is still working, and then conect it using an USB/SATA/IDE adapter to your Laptop. This is one: http://www.sataadapter.com/SATA-IDE-ATA-66-ATA-100-ATA-133-COMBO-ADAPTER/sata-ide-adapter-usb-hard-drive-sata-drive.htmlIf the problem with your desktop is with its hard drive, then... you need to take your computer to its manufacturer technnical service center.

Try pressing Fn-F7 to Choose monitor, it is a setting for using an external monitor or the screen or both. If it does not work try running to safe mode and change the screen resolution to its recommended setting.

Hope this helps

you can get a vista disk on ebay or a site called digitalsunrise.ltd ....i think you should have backed up your pc first before you can use a backup disk not sure about that as far as i know a back up is a disk with your files written to a cd or dvd that you have done through backup and restore on your control panel..hope this helps best of luck

It is possible the Software is either dormant, it means it needs activating, or it was not installed when windows or sony Vaio was downloaded.
Go to Sony website and downdoad for free

Its probably a virus that is in a rootkit. Get combofix and solve the problem.

You need to get it installed again.

It's likely your number lock is on. Look for the "Num Lck" or similar key on the top right of your keyboard and make sure it's disabled to type correctly.


Please rate me if this solution works for you

Thanks......Have a great time
