The screen of my Sony Vaio laptop VPCS11FM completely lost its brightness after the installation of Windows 8. What should do?

I installed upgrading W7 W8. Already during the final phase of installation, the screen of my Sony Vaio laptop VPCS11FM completely lost its brightness after the installation of Windows 8. I tried the settings of brightness through the hardware buttons and in energy savings, but it remained the same. What should do? Karl

Looking for a display updated sony driver.   Its always a good idea to do so during the updating of the OSs.

    error 0 x 80040705 is produced during the installation of windows essentials.what do? Help me please.

    Hello

    Thank you for contacting Microsoft Answers.

    This error is caused by a lack of installation of DirectX. Usually some DX files are already installed, but Setup cannot overwrite them. In my case, some of the files in \windows\SystemWOW64 have been accidentally encrypted, and the Setup program does not overwrite them. I had to manually delete these files for the Setup program to succeed. The cause may be different for you, but following these steps should help to understand which files DX are the cause of the problem.
    1. Install DirectX User Runtimes (refreshed June 2010) of http://www.microsoft.com/download/en...ang=en&id=8109
    You will be asked to choose the directory to put the files extracted from the cabin.

    2. run dxsetup.exe from the directory in step 1.

    3. installation failure will probably happen. Look at \Windows\Logs\DXError.log and find the report. INF in the error log file.
    For example:
    [13/07/11 20:36:35] module: dxupdate (Mar 30 2011), file: dxupdate.cpp, line: 2056, function: ExecuteInf
    Has no API: SetupInstallFromInfSection()
    Error: (5) - access is denied.
    Cannot install C:\Users\Foo\AppData\Local\Temp\DXA1BC.tmp\d3dx9_31_x86.inf: [x64_install]. The file is possibly corrupted.

    4. the INF files are files of configuration information, which are used to install the files listed in these. In this example, d3dx9_31_x86.inf is the. INF file. First, try to determine the. DLL file installed with this INF using the name of the INF file and look for a DLL with a name similar to \windows\systemwow64, if you are using 64-bit Windows, in \windows\system32, if you are using 32-bit Windows. In many cases, the name of the INF should tell you what DLL it installs, as shown in the examples below:

    xinput1_3_x86.inf
    install xinput1_3.dll
    d3dx9_33_x86.inf
    installs d3dx9_33.dll
    d3dx9_31_x86.inf
    install d3dx9_31.dllif you can't say the name that installs DLL has failed, you will need to watch the CAB file. See \Windows\Logs\DirectX.log to determine what CAB file has been processed before the error. Go to the directory you have chosen in step 1, and then open this CAB file in Explorer file by double clicking it. That will open a window of the Explorer showing the files in the cabin, including a file INF open the INF file, by right-clicking on the file and choosing extractin the menu contextual. The INF file has entries indicating that it installs the DLL as follows:

    [DirectX_System]
    D3dx9_38.dll [DirectX_SysWOW64]
    D3dx9_38.dll
    5. the likely installation failed because this DLL could not be replaced by the installation program. Find out why it could not be crushed and delete it manually from \windows\systemwow64 or \windows\system32.

    6. go to step 2 and repeat until the installation is successful.

    See you soon.

  • used space on the hard drive is much more than space unused theres 40 GB in the installations of windows preivus! Should / can I clean it as I just 17% left free space left

    or if not what your addvice please!  ;-)

    or if no what is your opinion please!  ;-)

    Not enough information really.
     
    What - what are you trying to do?
    What is this "40 GB in the previous installations of windows" do you speak?
    Can you be more precise all around?

  • "We cannot say if your pc is ready to continue the installation of Windows 8" what does that mean?

    I just downloaded Windows 8 and went to run the installation program and that keeps popping up as soon as I selected "install now". This message makes no sense at all given my pc is two weeks old (core i3 2120, 500 GB HARD drive, 8 GB ram, AMD 6670). I called Microsoft late last night and they insisted, he had to do with the fact that Windows 8 was not available until midnight. He also told me that I could log on to the Microsoft store and re download windows 8 to try again, which was a complete lie, because Windows 8 is found on the my account page. Now, if I want to re download Windows 8, I have to go and pay for it, once again, and pray that it works.

    I restarted my computer about 100 x already, and more important again, I clicked on "install by creating media," which has also failed when I tried to use a 8 GB flash drive. With all due respect Microsoft gave me ZERO help, regarding my telephone conversation (interlocutor was totally dismissive and patronizing completely), I came to the forums and I hope someone can help me.

    Is there a question here?

    Read your manuals and find a way to use your laptop computer based on the instructions from Sony to connect external (including projectors) monitors for the laptop.  Usually a connection (as you said Windows XP where you have published, probably VGA) for the monitor and a few buttons to tell the laptop to mirror or extend the display to the second monitor.

  • 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?

    Hello

    as vista is preinstalled and you did not change anything you get your drivers from Sony

  • Mouse and keyboard on Sony Vaio laptop does not. It seems, tried everything. (win 7)

    A few days ago, my mouse integrated on my computer laptop everything just stopped working unexpectedly.  I restart my computer and on the login screen, I realized that my keyboard did not work also.  I got my hands on a keyboard and a usb mouse and managed to integrate windows where I tried a restore system since a few days earlier.  When I started my computer, I was greeted with a screen icon and mouse balc.  After having tried everything, I backed up my hard drive and did install a clean windows 7.  My mouse and keyboard still do not work.  The computer recognize my keyboard, but not my mouse, and I tried to uninstall and reinstall the drivers.  I have reset the BIOS, everything.  I should mention that the keyboard works fine in the configuration menu of f2 and f8 one too.  It seems just, nothing associated Windows.  In addition, the mouse and keyboard do not work in safe mode.  suggestions please!  My computer is a Sony Vaio laptop, around the age of 3 months.

  • iPhone will not connect with iTunes on a Sony Vaio laptop (Windows 7)

    I can't connect my iPhone to iTunes on my Sony Vaio laptop. I tried uninstalling and reinstalling iTunes several times, as recommended on the Apple Support communities, nothing helps. I also deleted and set my phone from scratch. The device is recognized as a storage device, but not iTunes. Can someone please advise as to why this would be the case? As far as I know, everything on my laptop is up-to-date and the phone will not always be recognized.

It is not found by any webcam software. its icon in Device Manager is gone again. I'm tired of this problem.
