20 Most Recent Sony VAIO VGN-NS140E/S Notebook PC Questions & Answers

In Figure 2-2 you can also see that the Windows service SPCMDCON.SYS has failed. From the BSOD, you should be able to gather the following information: •The stop error number, which uniquely identifies the error •The stop error parameters, which provide additional information relating to the specific stop error number •Driver information is available if the source of the problem relates to drivers Armed with this information, you are able to search online to establish the problem and hopefully a resolution. In addition to the information available on the blue screen, if the system is able to be rebooted after the BSOD, either normally or using Safe Mode, it is useful to take a look in the System Event Log and view the error message. For example, a faulty driver during boot up usually has the stop error code STOP: 0x00000050 and an Error EventID of 1003. If your system refuses to reboot successfully, or is trapped within a perpetual BSOD that restarts over and over again, you should take the following steps. Press F8 after the BIOS screen appears. From Advanced Boot Options, select Disable automatic restart on system failure, as shown in Figure 2-3. This allows you to read and make note of the information contained on the BSOD. You can then allow Windows to attempt a reboot. If the perpetual loop reoccurs, select another option, such as Safe Mode, from the Advanced Boot Options menu.

Sorry to tell you this and you might disagree but sony,s are the most expensive to service and have many non-user serviceable parts which destines them to the scrap heap when they fail or die-im sorry i can help you more.

go into your sound driver options and locate the speakers you are trying to use, weather it be external or otherwise. Make sure the volume is up (i know obvious but still)
rate yea?

Sounds like it might be driver related...try downloading Sony Drivers Update Utility and that should update all your drivers, here is a link to the download:

Hope this helps

if the battery cannot be read try inserting another battery of the same caliber or try to remove the battery and plug the AC adaptor on your laptop. If problem persists, call SONY to replace your battery....

Hi,

The Camera driver is integrated with the Vista OS, so installing the Original ArcSoft WebCam Companion Software should resolve the issue with the camera. Here is the link:

To resolve the issue with the Function keys, reinstall the VAIO Event Services:

Thanks!!!!

1. You must try to turn off your PC then detach your battery
2. Try to turn it on after returning the battery back.
   

Hi,

If the imaging device is missing in the device manager, it is generally considered to be an hardware related issue. But, there are chances even in this situation the camera has worked after performing some troubleshooting steps:

Try opening the preinstalled ArcSoft WebCam Companion Software in the computer and check if there also you are getting the message, " Camera device not found".

If so then the issue may be resolved by reinstalling the Camera driver. In your case the computer uses inbox driver shipped with the OS. But, as it is Sony try reinstall the original ArcSoft WebCam Companion® Software from the esupport website.

If that also doesn't work, download and install the Camera driver:

http://esupport.sony.com/US/perl/swu-download.pl?mdl=VGNNS140ES&upd_id=4257&os_id=7

While installing the above driver, the computer may prompt an error this update is not for your computer model.

In that case, extract the setup file of the above driver using the Universal Extractor and then run teh setup, this usually works!!!!.

Download the Universal Extractor from the link below:

Thanks!!!!

Your Graphics Drivers could be wrong,but it sounds more like the cable for the backlight or the screen ,you wont of change the cables when you put the new screen in did you.
press the plastic around the top of the key board & under the screen untill you find the piont where it gets worse.then remove the back panel & screen surround to see which cables under their.
But for the drivers you can get them free on my web site:
T-ComTech Comuters.com

1. Check your power cord & adapter.
2. If its working then check the battery, reseat the battery & check.
3. If available then check with another battery
4. If no, then remove the battery & switch on the PC in AC mode.
5. Check if battery charging indication or AC power on indication is glowing. if not then need to change ur motherboard.
6. If indication is OK, but could not power ON then check ur RAM for any loose connection or dust. clean & reinstall.

Might be the webcam is not supported by Windows 7 (yet). If it is, there should be a driver for it on the Sony website.
You can try using a driver finder program to locate a compatible driver.

Do a system restore back to the last date they worked.If that does not fix the issue,see next step.
If it runs on Vista,go to the microsoft website and type fixit into the search.Select the fixit tool,select audio/sound issues,and run the tool.It might find the problem and correct it.If that fails,update the BIOS.If that fails,do a system recovery after you back up the data,if the speakers don't work after all of that,you might have a hardware issue.
Good luck.

• Hi, to change the "Language" back to any language of choice, do the following; from the "Desktop Screen" click on the [Start] button, next in the "Start Search" window, type: language. This will take you to the { Region and Language Options} window, now you be able to change the Language back. "Rating the help, is a way of letting me know that you have solved the problem, thanks."

i think it just needs a factory restore, by reinstalling the operating system on a fresh copy. some laptops can do it automatically using the manual you might find the key combination.

ctrl f10
ctrl f8
depends on the make

try pressing FN and F6 together while laptop starts up or contact the manafacturer for guidance

HI


Install the same installation file for your web cam in xp or vista
in windows 7 too...
its a trick
in which we are installing this driver in windows 7
in compatibility mode

compatibility mode allows any file on previous versions of windows to be installed in windows 7
For that
>>right click on the file
select properties
check the compatiblity tab
select windows vista
and dont forget to check"Run as administrator"

and apply


Hope this will solve your problem

You can try this to get the bios to default value by removing the battery. remove it for 30 min the put it back .You must fully unplug any power cable during the process. Or look to the motherboard somewhere near your battery there should be a jumper placed in two pin.if there is no third pin just take out the jumper then place it back .if there is a thrid jumper just place it in 2-3 position then back to normal position .do not forget to fully switch off your pc or laptop.you run the risk of runing your motherboard if u clear the cmos with powered up motherboard.
