VGN-FZ21M Out of warranty problem

noreplyforum@eu.sony.com — Wed, 23 Nov 2011 12:13:50 GMT

I had installed the original Windows Vista and I had the same problem. When I installed the drivers the laptop got blue screen. I couldn't get into the desktop. The only chance to use the laptop if the drivers was installed is to choose the safe mode where the drivers turned off.

That's why I believe that the problem is the nVidia.

However, I have the problem of the overheating.

Thanks for answer.

Nobody??

Sorry my mistake that I didn't list the symptoms.

First of all, in the screen showed up lines that change when the screen changed. To understand what I mean, when I start the pc in screen the lines fill the screen. When the Windows logon is coming that lines are changed to another lines and etc. But when is getting in the desktop the lines dissapears. And the laptop works normally.

Second, the system didn't recognised the graphic card. The laptop works normal, without graphic drivers. I have Windows 7 and in System Updates again the graphic drivers didn't showed up. I tried to install the drivers normally but when I install it I have one problem. When I start the laptop blue screen is the first thing that I saw. In safe mode (that drivers didn't work) it works normally.

Finally, I want to tell you that the laptop works normally for internet use.

Thank you for answering in my post. I hope you answer again!

P.S. I hope that the screen works perfect!

Hello everyone. How are you? I hope fine! I have this laptop and I think it has the standard problem with graphic card and overheating. My problem is that I have phoned the VAIO Support in Greece and it told me that I have to pay 125 Euros only for problem diagnose. And if the problem is in screen then I have to pay extra 140 Euros.

What should I do?

Thank you very much.
