Hi shiva55,

Check to see if the following is useful.

Method 1: Try to perform a disk cleanup and check if it helps.

Delete files using disk cleanup

Some of the files you are referring are system files that are required by the operating system, and you will not be able to remove them. But there may be malware infection as well.

Method 2: Perform an online scan to find any infections on the computer.

  • How can I fix NVIDIA Graphics Driver included with Vista, Sony VAIO laptop?

    My Sony VAIO laptop works for a few years now without many problems (difficult). But all of a sudden (not not after installation of software/hardware) the computer turns off. Now when I turn it on, the loading screens have graphical bugs and then I get a blue screen crash. Then it shuts down, reboots and asks if I want to run in safe mode. If I run it in normal Mode, the same problem occurs. If I run in Mode safe (networking works too), everything works as it should in Mode without failure. A problem report comes up saying 'address a problem with NVIDIA Graphics Driver NVIDIA Graphics Driver has stopped working properly.  An update of the driver, as appropriate, could prevent this problem does not happen. "I am very good with computers, but it's something that I have no idea how fix." What should I do?

  • Cannot load Windows (Vista-Sony Vaio VGN-NS110E)

    So I bought this computer off a friend for $50, knowing very well the problems she experienced. No im hoping I can get some help and do this thing running.

    When I start the computer, I get a screen that says...

    "Unable to start Windows. A recent hardware or software change might be the cause.

    I have two options below...

    Start the reboot system (recommended) - Insert windows instilation disk and restart... Well I don't have the instillation disk

    Start windows normally - goes to loading with green bars screen and handle everyday if I let him

    I downloaded this (iso 120Mo thing) vista recovery disk and he put in the computer and ran the startup of many times repair... 20 times or more.  the only thing I get is "system on the disk volume is damaged." it dosent have one

    When I boot computer and press f8, I get a screen with many options... I can't load the safe mode, safe mode with networking, or safe mode with command prompt and any of the other options seem to give results.

    When I start the computer and press f10, I get a disk read error occurred press Ctrl-alt-del to restart (done nothing doin it just stay on the same screen)

    When I boot the computer and press f2 it evokes the thing of the bios I think and he tell me that I HAVE a HD 250 GB installed in the computer (which seems really odd because when in the Startup Repair and I click on the button "LOAD DRIVERS" I am able to look through the hd and see all the old files left there by my friend BUT HE DOES WATCH THE HD FOR) BE a 140 GB HD?)

    THINGS OF IMPORTANCE MAY BE:

    He mentioned something about someone who replace the hd for him goin for the smallest 140 now 250 gb hd... but it seems strange that the computer is tell me 2 things different in 2 different places (250 GB in bios f2 thing) (140 in the button drivers load the Startup Repair tool) and MI is still able to browse the folders on the hard drive

    his display I have 3 drives c:local disk (140 gb) e:recovery(8.89gb) x: start (33.6 MB)

    loading safe mode it gets stuck on this file crcdisk.sys for awhile and then just restarts the computer

    IF THERES NOTHING ELSE I CAN SAY YOU OR I CAN TRY THINGS PLEASE DO NOT HESITATE TO ASK... REALLY WANT THIS COMPUTER

    EDIT-I TRIED ALSO REINSTALL IT WINDOWS OPTION AND ASKED ME TO ENTER THE PRODUCT KEY I DID USING THE LABEL ON THE BACK OF THE COMPUTER SIAD INVALID PRODUCT KEY AND IT AND I CHECK AND RECHECK IT SOME TIME... IT WAS JUST BUT NOT RETURN INSTALL ME WINDOWS AGAIN? //?????

  • 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.

    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.

  • 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.

  • 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.
