• Sony motion eye cam on my sony vaio vgn-fe48g has stopped working after installing win7

  Please could someone help me to set up the Board Sony motion eye cam and FN keys that don't work after upgrading from Vista to Win7, Sony are no help at all.

  Device Manager can't even see the cam. I tried to install it manually and the nearest me am added the cam, I was able to start.

  Maybe you are missing the drivers. Are there drivers available for this W7?

  You should check with Sony for your specific model and area/region Web site to see if they provide any W7 drivers at all. If Yes, have you installed them for the web cam?

  EXAMPLE - this site is for the India, they have a few drivers for Vista HP 32 bit, but none that seems for W7 HP 32-bit. - http://www.sony.co.in/support/product/vgn-fe48g

  This is a missing driver for W7 then issue you might try to install drivers vista in compatibility mode, but this is not guaranteed and can cause other problems. Back up your data first to be safe. See http://www.sevenforums.com/tutorials/98073-drivers-install-vista-drivers-windows-7-a.html and you need the correct version of the pilot 32 or 64 bits depending on the case.

• Can't uninstall DisplayLink Core Software on a laptop Sony Vaio (VGN-NR110E model) for a Windows Vista upgrade to Windows 7.

  Hi, I wonder if there is someone who can help me on this issue because it prevents me to install Windows 7 on my laptop.  I have a Sony Vaio VGN-NR110E model, and when I try to install Win7 it tells me that I must first uninstall DisplayLink Core Software.  I went to my control panel to uninstall the program, and it doesn't let me, saying another program he has in use.  On this forum, someone suggested that I'm trying to boot my laptop in safe mode, and it can allows me to remove the program there.  My concern with this would be if I remove this program in Mode safe, how could make sure I'd be able to re - install DisplayLink Core Software should anything go wrong when I try to install Win7?

  The other question I have is there are two other programs that appear to be linked to DisplayLink Core Software.  They are called SONY VGP-UPR1 and there is another utility called program SONY VGP-UPR1 (display Adapater). If I deleted those first, it seems that it can release DisplayLink Core software should be deleted.  In this case someone has already tried that and had success?

  Could someone install Windows 7 on a Sony Vaio VGN-NR110E?

  Hi RC2076,

  Welcome to Windows 7 answers Forum!

  From what I can see SONY VGP-UPR1is a USB docking station for VAIO, try to temporarily disable by right clicking on the program. You can go ahead and uninstall the software basis of DisplayLink, as long as you have the CD for this software.

  Once you are done uninstalling, you can install Windows 7 and later you install DisplayLink Core Software and select then the other two programs that are linked with the above mentioned software.

  You can also run the Upgrade Advisor and check it out. Here is the link to download the Upgrade Advisor.

• Integrated motion Eye webcam does not work after installation of own Windows 7 64 - bit (Sony VAIO VGN-AR770)

  Hi, I'm having so much worse for my webcam to work again after a clean installed Windows 7 64-bit (I used to run 32-bit vista). I searched the net and found many many people with the same problem but no solution yet that works for me. My last attempt:

  I manually installed these drivers recommended on this forum: http://forums.techarena.in/vista-hardware-devices/1135698.htm

  With the help of the method 'have disk '. Installation seemed to happen, but no program does not recognize my webcam. Skype, for example, seems to work, but the video is just black.

  In Device Manager > features the webcam is listed as "RY5U870/VGA-CAM F01_UVC of Imaging.
  "and noted that"this device works fine."" Many people have suggested to try to download the originals and installation using Vista compatibility, but I can't get these drivers to 64-bit, and when I download the 32-bit drivers, unfortunately they do not work.

  I understand that I hit a wall here on my laptop model Sony support (now obsolete), but I feel that there must be a work around that people found out there somewhere. Can someone help me get my webcam goes again?

• Sony Vaio VGN-FZ38M drivers for Windows 7

  Hello

  I had Windows Vista premium edition on my sony vaio. He has been replaced by windows 7 after vista wouldn't start on a number of occasions.

  But that left me without any driver for my sony vaio, so I can't use the camera, the scroll of the touchpad, dvd blue ray player. Do you know where I could get these drivers that are compatible with windows 7?

  I've seen a windows 7 restore disk for download at a price of 17 euros on the web address http://restore-disk.com/restoredisks/Sony/SonyVGN/Sony-VGN-FZ38M-Windows-7-Restore-Disk-322846.html

  Anyone who has previously successfully used?

  Thank you

  Sinead.

  Go to the Sony Web site and download/install the appropriate Windows 7 drivers. If there is no available using the recovery process initially supplied with your laptop and re - install Vista.

  Without the support of Windows 7 from Sony, the devices will never work...

• Sony Vaio VGN-NW270F not illuminate, no LED light with battery cable or power supply

  I have a Sony VAIO VGN-NW270F, it is quite dead. No led light, no boot, nothing. No lights with battery or power cable. I did some research:

  1. I did press the button power for 60 seconds, nothing. (Battery and cable not plugged in)

  2. I replaced the DC power jack in my research, it is said that the laptop can turn off completely if the plug or the charging circuit has problems. The motherboard looks fairly integrated, I do not see a power billing for the circuits that may be outside the MB.

  3. I plugged a different power cable, nothing.

  4. I can't find a replacement MB online which is less than $1,000.

  5. I see not all covers of breath, or a repair kit online.

  Anyone, has any idea what should I do then? And for sarcastic readers of this post, yes I know. But rampage it seems such a waste... Even for a computer dead.

• SONY Vaio VGN-AW360J will not power

  Hi all

  I'm new to the Group of users, and this is my first posting.
  I have a SONY Vaio VGN-AW360J, the keyboard is for quite awhile, buggy not allowing the good boot-up, lock up, creation of random key entries and sorting. I found that if I opened the laptop, access to the slick KB then disconnect and reconnect it LT would work normally until I later had to reboot for some reason any. I ordered an exact replacement KB and I'm waiting for delivery is however now the LT does not power on at all. I checked the presence of 19.5 VDC at the level of the connector on the main Board after taking power, but don't know where else to check even if I can with my simple digital multimeter. I did all the procedures proposed on the site of Sony support without change.

  The symptoms are the following: no indication of power to the power switch, no green light. DC power is present on all four positions at the level of the connector PCB (PCN1). There is no change with or without the defective original keyboard connected and no change with all removable devices disconnected i.e.: CD/DVD drive, hard disk and RAM all removed from the main Board.

  Then, Oh, my darling Sony Vaio is completely dead in the preverbal waters of my digital life. My big question is, does anyone have knowledge of this problem and is at - it no reasonable or logical hope through the necessary repairs, if any?

  TKS,
  Dave S.

• How to fix the fingerprint reader of the problems of compatibility with WIN 7 Sony Vaio VGN-SZ260P

  The fingerprint reader does not work on my laptop Sony Vaio VGN SZ240P since I've updated from Windows XP.  There must be a problem somewhere online.  Everyone fell on this problem yet? And if so how do solve you this problem?

  Hello Jason,

  This will be a little problem. The only available fingerprint driver is for XP, the operating system on this computer comes with. There is a driver at this location: http://esupport.sony.com/US/p/swu-download.pl?mdl=VGNSZ240P&upd_id=2134&os_group_id=13 which works on Vista with "loss of functionality.

  So, if you have a 32-bit Windows 7 system (it will not work in a 64-Bit environment) do the following: download the XP / Vista driver and install it. Once its installed go to the program icon or the file itself and right click on it, selecting Properties in the window that opens. When the new window opens, go to the top row of tabs and select the Compatibility tab. When that shows check the box run in compatibility and mode in the drop-down list that appears, select Windows 7. Then select Apply and after that finishes select apply to all users. That brings up the same menu for all users - check the compatibility in the Windows 7 box, click on apply, then click OK and click OK.

  If something does not work as I've described, post here with details and I'll try to work through it, with you. Let me know if this solves the problem for you.

  Sony Vaio VGN-Z31WN

  Windows Vista professional.

  Serial number: 28286061

  Service etiquette: J003R5FO

  IMEI: 355891020417161

  I recently had some work to my computer and when I came back, my Adobe suite has been uninstalled.

  What steps should I take to re - install / checking the codes etc?

  Reinstall from the original with the original serial number disks. There is a good chance it will work. If she says "too many activations", you must contact Adobe.

  Please be aware that this is a public forum and all information that you post can be seen by the world. It's often a bad idea to post the serial numbers, because they can be stolen and Rob you of what you paid for. (Less a matter of concern for the machine numbers, but a real problem for the software). There is nothing that we can do your series of Sony or the serial number, only Sony could use it.
