Top 20 Sony VAIO PCG-K35 Notebook Questions & Answers

In my opinion it sounds like the onboard video chipset has failed. That would explain why neither LCD nor outside monitor are showing any output. This is especially likely if you are not even getting the initial logo or Power on Self Test showing on the screens when you first turn on the laptop.

How long does it run before it shuts down? Does the laptop get hot? If so, make sure the air intake and exhaust ports are clean.

check the fan make sure its running ok if not clean it out using a hoover if that does not clean it out you will have to open it.or it could be the processor over heating check for heat paste might need replacing.

pls go to the bios setup by tapping F8 or F10 while starting up and then reset the bios to default settings.....if that helps good if not then pls revert back

hello steve,i would like to try and help you with your issue. could you pls let me know what operating system's 32 bit drivers are you looking for? and for which devices?thanks

u need to reboot ur laptop means make ur lappy windows 7 ur old window got corrupt

Stuck?If you mean while working and just freeze (and before never did, none new software or hardware installed), the problem would be with the cooling and the CPU overheats.Try using compressed air or just blow at the air vent opening (install RM clock management to check the CPU temperature)

It's not worth the money or the effort. You wouldn't notice much of a difference in speed at all.

I think you have no other way other than to go to the nearest Service Center of the manufacturer.Regards, Mrityunjay

Computer does not boot upThe problem maybe the RAM, it is faulty or just needsreseating to make proper electrical contact.Reseat the RAM and then boot up your laptop. If it still does not boot up thenremove the RAM module/s and take them to your friendly computer repair shop andget them to test the RAM for you.

When the computer is "On" look very carefully at the screen. If you can see the screen but it is extremely faint then your inverter is going bad. The intverter board is located along the bottom edge of the display.

Here are a couple of links to the drivers I believe you are looking for. Ihad to use the PCG-K35 to find the drivers. I found out that the reakltek AC 97' audio codec driver is what you are looking for from the first link.

The second link is a realtek direct download link.

May the Source code be with you my friend.

Hi Saurav,PCG 394L is the service tag number. You may need to refer to your product again to determine the actual model name. Model Numbers are usually located on a sticker located on the back or bottom of the unit. They may also be listed on the product manual.Based on the service tag you have provided, the model number might start with VGNFZ.

Hi,
Try this, 1. Check your Windows Device Manager and see if all hardware is recognized and installed
properly. 2. It might be that the hardware is recognized as a camera, but the right drivers are not
installed. The yellow explanation mark will indicate a problem. 3. In that case you can try to update the drivers. Right-click the device, and in the
popup menu select Update Driver Software. Then follow the instructions on screen, but
make sure you allow Windows to search the web for updated drivers.
If this works and helpful, please give a testimonial and vote by pressing button four thumbs up icon.

Hi

It seems that the power button still pressed, and hanged on this state.

This means that the laptop won't open, so you need to make the button comes back to it's original state.
Try using a tool with sharp edge as a knife to get the button out

Please tell us your results
Good Luck

AVG states that the application is corrupt

go to repair shop and get a price for fixing the cooling or fan, if your pc is new, reclaim at the sellers shop to fix it or replace the computer

Hi
your problem have many choices may be the temperature, if the laptop get heat it do that ... you can check by open bios setup by clinking F2 when start.

Good Luck.

I had the same problem with my VAIO. You may want to try the MS Tech Support article to troubleshoot. It's helped some people get the volume control in the sys tray again: http://support.microsoft.com/kb/319095/en-us

I had to do a workaround and put a link to the volume control setting on my desktop:

1. Right click on the desktop. A menu will pop up.
2. Scroll down to New.
3. Choose Shortcut.
2. For Location of the Item, type the following: c:\windows\system32\sndvol32.exe
3. Click next
4. Call the shorcut whatever you wish. For example, Volume Control.
5. Click Finish

You now should have a functioning shortcut on the desktop provided the sndvol32.exe file is not corrupt (see Microsoft article).
