    I have tried the F10, as well as F2 and it does not load into BIOS or safe mode, it just keeps going to the windows load screen and then the power shuts off.

Ok no need to get a bcakup disk or downlaod anything

if ur hard drive is original factory fitted
and
ur laptop came with pre loaded OS as XP

then do this without disk

Sony: When you first turn on the laptop and see the VAIO logo screen, press the F10 key (you need to do this before the VAIO logo disappears).

pls let me know and rate me FIXYA for help

Sony Vaio VGN-SZ18GP Windows 7 shutdown problem .... when I shut down .... it gets stuck on the screen of shutdown but the "loading circle" is still running

This can be a sign of a memory failure, either the RAM is not clearing or the hard drive is on its' way out. Hold the power button down for 6 seconds for a "hard shutdown". Then restart and see if the problem persists.

My sony vaio VGN-NR430E will not start up i just did a system recovery and now it wont load windows unless in safe mode

If you can switch on your laptop in Safe mood then i will suggest you to remove recently installed application from your laptop. or you can try system restore oprtion to restore your laptop to earlier date when it was working. you can find system restore option in Start menu- Accessories and system tools.

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.

2) to purchase S-Video Cable itself ?
3) to purchase something like audio AV cables as well ?

Does anybody know where I can buy VGA - S-Video Cable (without Adapters) if it's possible and DO I NEED TO BUY AUDIO CABLE IF I'M GOING TO CONNECT THRU S-VIDEO?

no its a software problem.....I believe you are using Windows XP. can you tell when it loads or starts to load it stops at the windows loading part only does it go near the boot screen ie; XP loading........like that or straight to blue screen. Ive seen this before its not a hardware its a software. Have you got the installation disk XP if so.....insert it in the CDrom and start the machine up from scratch. Allow windos to go through the rig ma role of installation until it cant go no further. Press "R" for console go to the DOS line and type chkdsk /p allow windows to repair the problem when done remove the disk and start up again.....if Im right it should go pass that nagging "loading windows screen"...I hope it works for you, you'll be elated.
