Sony VGN-FW351J/H PC Notebook Questions & Answers
Sony VGN-FW351J won't start or install windows.
You may have either a faulty memory module or a faulty hard drive. Remove one memory module see if the problem goes away. If not, remove that module and reinstall the other memory module and try again. It's unlikely that you would have 2 bad memory modules, but if one module is bad i recommend replacing both modules.
If the problem remains regardless of which memory module is installed then your hard drive may be wearing out. The suggestion here would be to replace the hard drive with an SSD which will add some real speed to your computer.

Disk read error upon startup. won't restart
Insert the windows CD that came with your laptop and reboot. Ensure that you are booting from the CD and follow the prompts until you see a "system recovery" option. windows will attempt to fix the issues.

Hard drive turns off
Open the power settings , adjust advanced power settings, Change to High Performance. Change Sleep and Hibernate to Never. Shut down your laptop when not in use. It will last longer and a reboot everyday resets the computer.

Want to upgrade from vista to windows 10
The Microsoft website will give details of how to upgrade and the costs involved, though buying the new operating system on hardware and performing a drive format and a clean new load could make more sense.
A computer that previously ran Vista will probably be a few years old and therefore have a low specification so you could be disappointed with the performance when running Windows 10.
I have a very old pc originally running Windows 95 that copes well with XP without perceptible loss of functionality for modest purposes, which makes no sense at all.
On the other hand a relatively high-spec laptop I own needs a fair amount of patience running Windows 7.
You have to try these things but the results aren't assured and it is a bit like making a wager with your cash. Might be more economic to buy an up to date machine.

How do i send photo files that are on my laptop without losing the pictures
Hi Irene - There are many ways to send photos and so I am assuming you are sending them by email. If this is not correct, please provide more info. Within your email program send a new message. In the new message, click on Attach File or Insert Picture. Which ever you choose, it will open a box that will allow you to locate your photo files on your laptop. Select the ones you want and they will be added to the email. They will also remain intact on your laptop. Hope this helps. Thanks.
