Sony VGN - Answered Questions & Fixed Issues - Page 7

This may caused due to many causes:
1. installed drivers are not compatible with your CAM - Go to your Device Manager (Computer -> properties -> Hardware -> Device manager) and check whether your CAM is displays with a question mark, if it is then you have not installed correct driver.

2. Simply, restart your lap and check - this because if you have just install drivers then in order to correctly load CAM setting, it may require a restart.

3. Actually some programe may use your CAM in background. Close all apps you are using. Use processExplorer.exe from FileHippo.com and check any background process using it. If so kill it and re-check. Better if you can use Skype to check your CAM

you have lost the driver for in. You have to go on http://esupport.sony.com/EN/VAIO and choose your model or detect it. once you do this it will show all the drivers for your vaio, go under camera and download and install your driver.

A file neccessary for windows to start properly is missing or corrupt. If you are able to get to the Windows boot selection menu by repeatedly pressing F8 you may be able to do a system restore to repair the system. If not, i would suggest finding your Windows CD/DVD and trying to boot off it by pressing F11 (if not, then Press F2 to change the order of your boot devices so that your CD/DVDROM will boot first) and running through the repair option.
If that does not work you will need to preform a full fresh install of Windows.

Problem with a Sony Vaio. It seems one of the updates put entries in my registry to start a Vaio Lan Manager with Windows.

HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Run
HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Run

Check these keys to see if any kind of a 3rd party Lan Manager is running. If so, delete the entries and reboot.

If you aren't getting any response from your laptop then it may mean a component within the laptop has become faulty. It could be the CPU or mainboard. I suggest taking it in to your neares PC store and have a technition first handedly diagnose and single out the malfunctioning parts.

It could be your baclight that provides the power to the lamp in your screen, it can be the lamp as well, or could be an electrical fault with your motherboard, wrong voltage output to the inverter / faulty cable between the mbo and the inverter board. If it is the screen you can easly get one of ebay, there is a model number on the back, starting usualy with two letters and three numbers (those are in fact your screen dimensions) and then sometimes other letters/numbers + leters and numbers in brackets, eg. LTN154XB-L01 or LP156WH2 (TL) (C1). Accordingly you can ebay or google your laptop model number and type inverter or read the part number of the inverter (small ractgular board fitted below the screen). Not sure how to help if that is any other fault.

Hi carlosoaj,

You need to re-install the Camera Driver after the installation of the Windows 7 Operating System in the computer. As the Windows Vista Drivers are compatible with Windows 7 Operating System, you can try installing those Driver.

Please download the Camera Driver here

Please download the file to a folder in the Computer. Then, please open the folder where the files is downloaded and double click on it to begin the installation. Please follow the onscreen instructions to complete the installation process. After installation, restart the Computer for the settings to take the effect.

After that, install the Windows 7 Camera Applications in the Computer. You can download the Windows 7 Camera Applications from the below link.

The cooling fan needs to be replaced, it cools the processor ic which is critical in running the laptop and prevents overheating.

If you purchased a "genuine" copy of the software, then you will have a product-key.

If you recently purchased a new computer with a "trial" version of the software installed, your 30-day "trial-period" has ended, and you need to go to any computer-store, and purchase a license to use the software.

Hi,
Please tells in detail what it the problem
Regards

The LCD screen is bad, or the video cable from the motherboard to the display is loose and needs to be reseated back in place. But before we call it ! hook an external monitor to the video output at the back of the laptop, If the monitor is good it is the laptop screen, If both show the same problem it is the video graphics card that is apart of the motherboard.
