Computer laptop Sony Vaio after upgrade to Windows 8 screen appears Dim

* Original title: laptop Sony Vaio upgrade to Windows 8

Since I've upgraded to Windows 8, my screen on my Sony notebook is very low. I went on the Sony website, and he recommended that I have not upgraded to Windows 8. Too late! What should I do to fix this?  I have a Sony Vaio VPCS111FM. Thank you!

    Please follow the methods.

    Method 1:

    Run the Microsoft fixit for the link.

    Hardware devices do not work or are not detected in Windows

    http://support.Microsoft.com/mats/hardware_device_problems/en-us

    Method 2:

    As all devices have same also have USB device associated drivers. Appropriate sometimes drivers not detected after initial installation so reinstalling the drivers can fix the problems.

    You can check after uninstalling and reinstalling USB drivers if you are able to connect. You can disconnect all USB devices and then perform the following steps:

    (a) click Startand then click Control Panel.

    (b) click system and Maintenance, click System, and then click Device Manager.

    (e) in Device Manager, double-click to expand the "USB Bus controllers", right click on the controller host, click "Uninstall" and click "OK".
    Check that if at all, there is an exclamation point on the pilot, it suggests problems with the installed driver.

    (f) repeat step 2 to uninstall all items under 'USB Bus controllers'.

    Then, restart your computer and Windows 7 will automatically reinstall all USB controllers.

    THIS PROBLEM IS WHEN CONNECT BLUETOOTH TO YOUR COMPUTER KEYBOARD, IT HAS NOTHING TO DO WITH YOUR KEYBOARD, BUT IT IS FEATURES RATHER USELESS INCORPORATED BY THE MANUFACTURER OF THE COMPUTER.
    IF YOU HAVE A DELL, LENOVO OR ANY OTHER BRAND, YOUR SOLUTION CAN BE OF THE USELESS "" QUICKSET. "." EXE"PROCESS.

    WELL, after days of looking for a specific response from VAIO, finally I came with a solution for VAIO users whose computer is equipped with a receiver to blue tooth ATHEROS.

    1 - type "regedit" in Start-Run menu to open your registry database.
    2 - navigate to: HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\ATHEROS\VistaAddOn\KBNotify
    3. - the value of '0 '.
    Close regedit, restart your computer and you're done.
    Be careful not to change anything else in your registry, unless you know what you're doing.
    FIND THE ANSWER TO THIS QUESTION TOOK ME SEVERAL HOURS, SHAME ON MICROSOFT AND SONY, IT IS THE MOST STUPIDEST USELESS FILM THAT I HAVE EVER MET.
    If your bluetooth receiver isn't ATHEROS, simply look for the brand name of your receiver instead of 'ATHEROS' and look for a similar register, it may look like 'BTTray', 'BTNotify' or similar.
    Good luck

  • Computer fan noise laptop Sony Vaio after victory 8.1 upgrade

    Hello

    I just update my windows 8 to 8.1, so all systems are OK but the laptop fan does not respond even after that I already adjusted my settings of power to silence.  I want to get feedback soon because I can't tolerate the noise of cooling in high speed fun.  Thank you

    I have the same problem, the noisy fan after upgrade Windows 8 to 8.1 Windows. Sony VAIO model is SVE14A27CXH.

  • Computer laptop Sony VAIO on Windows 8 may not change the brightness

    I have a Sony VAIO VPCS11X9E and my screen brightness is at the lowest setting for some reason any. In addition, my FN keys for brightness setting do not work. All the means to change the brightness do not work, this does not include the brightness bar when you go into the settings.

    I tried both installation driver, checked for any drivers missing or out-of-date drivers, but the only one who seems to be obsolete is my Intel HD graphics that I'VE updated, but the Intel driver update checker says otherwise.
    I deactivated AND activated (just in case) the Adaptive brightness, but it doesn't work.
    I got Windows 7 Ultimate running before but decided to upgrade to Windows 8. Windows 7 has never had any problems with the brightness. Also when I load upward, even thought I have replaced Windows 7 with Windows 8, it still load the dual boot screen, asking me what OS I want to start with. Starting with Windows 7 goes down several times, then it will take me to repair VAIO system. Windows 8 of course takes me to Windows 8.
    When the laptop starts up, the large letters or "VAIO" is bright and normal and sometimes, but not always, when it comes to dual boot screen, the brightness is normal. However, when this happens, as soon as I move the mouse or click on a button, the brightness goes immediately back down to very dim.
    When loading upward in another system or startup program, the brightness is fine. For example when I go to Sony VAIO Recovery Center, the brightness is ok. Also, if I boot in something like miniXP or a separate operating system on a bootable floppy or USB, the brightness is fine as well.
    I tried many patches of driver, but NONE of them work! I tried to boot in safe mode and try to install some drivers manually because that apparently works, but it makes no difference at all.
    If you could help me, even if this does not work, I would be very happy!
    Thank you very much.

    I found how to adjust the brightness on my Vaio that uses Windows 8, I went to

    VAIO Control Center
    Image quality
    Off the brightness of the display
    I hope this helps everyone with this problem.

    You cannot back up the drivers on the dvd, you can create the recovery disks, as instructed by Sony.

    But before installing win8 you must first check with support from Sony as to whether win8 is supported on your model.

    You must also run the Win8 compatibility checker

  • Re: Computer laptop Sony Vaio SVZ13115GGXI, would it or5.5.2 first Pro CS6? with an Intel® HD Grap

    Re: Above, would a 13.1 "monitor will be big enough at 1920 x 1080 in this Vaio Z series? And he would go the Mercury engine? With 4000 Intel HD Graphics card?

    Bob,

    The fact that you look at a laptop computer with only a 13.1 "average screen in my book that he will not be used for a very minor change, otherwise would have chosen you a larger screen, I think. But the main obstacle to a small laptop is the only disk in it. As soon as you start to look for a laptop with a larger screen, you can also find laptops that allow 2 or even 3 disks internally, well than the Sony Vaio series No. And of course, you know how it is important to distribute your drive accesses to disks as much as possible. In addition, more big laptops often have the possibility of a CUDA compatible video card that can use material MPE.
