Check that the graphics drivers are ok and updated if there are updates as it's a little old know. May also be a screen fault, not worth repairing.

Hello,
Ebay is your friend for LCD screens.
It looks like the going average for this screen is about $103.99.
http://shop.ebay.com/i.html?_nkw=Sony+VAIO+PCG-TR2F+screen&_trkparms=65%253A12%257C66%253A2%257C39%253A1%257C72%253A4726&rt=nc&_sticky=1&_trksid=p3286.c0.m14&_sop=16&_sc=1
If you sent it to Sony or any PC shop they will charge you around $300 for it so your best bet is to use ebay, and put the screen in yourself.
Regards, Chris

I cannot connect to video projection my labtop is vio VGN-SZ28gp Video projection cable do not recognize my labtop!

Connecting an External Monitor or Data Projector
You can switch to anexternal monitor by two methods. 1. Connect the externalmonitor to the laptop's video port, power up the external monitor first and thelaptop. The video information will automatically switch to the externalmonitor. 2. If you power up thelaptop first then you can switch the video output to the external monitor bypressing the Fn key and one of the Function keys, depending upon your make andmodel laptop. You can also toggle between the external monitor or both LCDscreen plus the external monitor or back to LCD screen only by pressing the Fnkey plus one of the function key.

My sony vaio labtop doesnt charge any more unless i use my hand to support where the charger cable connects the labtop.

This must be a loose DC Port Issue. If the system is still under warranty, you can call Sony and they can repair it for you.

Image being displayed is all colored vertical lines

I had this problem a lot on Labtops. The problem is that it has been unliquifed in the screen. This means that the screen has been damaged or has got really hot. Also its has been on for along time. LCDs go bad real quick and can be a hassle when you need the infomation in the thing and have no display. When I had this problem on my labtop, I used the external bay to use another monitor so I can work on it. So I say that nothing can be done to fix it. The only way to see your stuff on there is to use the video out on the recorder and try to check your stuff. That multicolor lines you saw is becoming major right now in LCD displays. I hope this solves your problem.
