Sony VAIO GRV670 Notebook Questions & Answers
Sony Vaio PCG -GRV670. NO power.I was aked to look
First get a known good power brick and try it.(Did you measure the voltage under load? Better not to even bother as it shouldn't be 23.5 anyway so discard the power brick before it blows something else up)
The excessive voltage may have fried the on board regulator or blown a fuse; you will need to dismantle to check this, just trace the wires from the power socket to the MB
I hope I have been of help but please do not hesitate to ask if you have any further questions.

Sony Vaio not recognized installed memory
Swap the modules between the slots.
If the message shanges to slot 0 not recogonized, then you have a bad memory module,
Easy fix, just get another module.
If the message does not change, then you have a problem on the mother board.
Not an easy fix, it would be cheaper to buy a 1GB module and use the good slot.
Good Luck!
Cpu fan malfunction
Hello Chris....i highly recommend you dont "pry" on anything and it have it serviced by a qualified tech. The vaio incorporates the heatsink and fan as a unit, It's a 2 wire fan that is temp. controled from 5v and up. You can take a vacuum and place at the ventilation opening and remove some of the dirt & dust that has accumulated inside, this will help. The cost is around 100 buxs for a new fan & sink...Sony part # 1-763-483-12. Attached is a pic of the unit..; Also note: a depleted battery will effect fan operation as well.
Hope this helps and will fixya up....

My laptop has limited internet access. I've called
Hello -
Depending upon where (in your home?) you use your Sony Vaio laptop (via WiFi?) you may need a WiFi booster or extender. Or, you may find that moving your WiFi router to another location in your home will improve your connection without diminishing the connections for other laptops used in your home.
Perhaps the information here will prove instructive:

Note: If the router needs to be moved in your home, you will probably need a technician for your Internet provider to come to your home to relocate it and connect it properly.

Apple mobile device usb drivers has malfunctioned and exceed the power limits of its hub port.
Ewwwwwww... no fun.
You should try a
"POWERED"
4 Port USB 3.0 Hub
It's important that it's a
"POWERED HUB" because you need
the HUB to supply it's
OWN power and not depend on your Apple E to provide power to your connected USB devices!
The good news is they don't cost much:
$8 on eBay
Auction: 202096902632
Note that they include the power supply! Many other HUBS don't.
Your HUB is even LESS if you pick on the USB 2.0. Version,
AND YES, each HUB MUST have it's own power supply and that's just what YOU need.
The ONE thing I didn't like about this HUB is the LED lights that are provided for each port! They are TOO bright so I opened it up and plucked all but one LED out. I also bought the 8 and 10 Port HUB versions and 'fixed' them too.
I also didn't need the switches to confuse things (accidentally turn one or more ports OFF)... so my trusty hot glue gun fixed that! All are constant ON now.
