Vaio fs920 will not connect to wireless internet

I'm assuming you are still using WinXP on this machine? If so make sure you have Service Pack 3 installed since XP doesn't have native support for newer wireless encryption standards like WPA2.
If you are using WPA2 encryption on your network then try setting it to an older version like WEP and connecting that way, if that works but not with WPA2 then you don't have the extensions for the newer encryption protocols installed that come with Service Pack 3.

I want to install the sony vaio bluetooth driver

Hi.

According to the information available online, the VGN-FS920 Notebook is not shipped with a built-in Bluetooth Device.

Hence, you may use an External Bluetooth Device.

You may also go through the Marketing Specifications for VGN-FS920 Notebook.

You may download the Marketing Specifications from the below link:

http://www.docs.sony.com/release/specs/VGNFS920_mksp.pdf

Hope this helps.

Please feel free to contact for further assistance.

Thank you.

My VAIO VGN-FS920 laptop freezes after booting to the windows operating system. I see my desktop but cannot work because the cursor freezes.

Hello.

Either you have an operating system problem or memory issue.

First, boot your system to Safe Mode (press F8 repeatedly when powering on). Go to System Restore and choose a date when your system worked OK. Note: with System Restore, all your updates will roll back to that date. Follow the process.

If still a problem, disconnect all cables. Remove the battery. Be certain to dispel static electricity by touching metal. Remove the memory cover. Try reseating (removing and reinserting) your memory (try one module at a time to test). Replace the cover and battery and boot.

Hope this helps.

What is the max size and speed of hard drive you can install in a sony viao vgn-fs920?

On the Hard Drive you can put almost anything with it that sony supports I would suggest that you use a external drive 1 TB then there is no problems and everything you have on the old one is accessible. 2G is the max on memory you can get everything at office depot total cost would be around $150 not really hard to install.

I have to remove the battery pack and reinsert it

have you tried holding the power button down for about 5-10 seconds to manually shut down laptop? make sure the system is up to date with the current updates and clean out the system using your antivirus program. also try microsoft security essentials if you dont already have it.
