Top 20 Sony ( CRX230AD/U ) CD-RW Burner - Page 7 Questions & Answers

Hello, Jean Pierre... Yours looks like a "common" CD/DVD Player? Your question specifies "Sony", but that number is also good for a "LiteOn" Drive? Can you PLEASE tell us the SYSTEM MFG and MODEL this drive belongs to? MOST photos show a Drive that fits a 'standard' drive slot in a PC? A FEW other photos show a thin LAPTOP configuration? I tried to find a manual for you to discover if it's a IDE or a newer SATA but I had little luck and many dead ends. LOOK at the connectors on the back of your Drive... TRY to find a NEW/Faster replacement with the SAME connectors! USE CAUTION! If yours is a IDE type you MAY need to move a tiny plastic JUMPER to "SLAVE"? Anthony

It seems your DC socket is suspect, as sometimes it connects and powers on and at times it doesn't. replacing the DC socket on the motherboard should cure it.

1. Damaged hard drive is a very common cause for that problem. Once your OS is not 'readable' some parts of the drive might be damaged and is best to change hard drive and reinstall OS and applications.

2. A very corrupted OS (you deleted critical parts of the OS or have a virus) might fail to load and then you could perform a restoration if you have the OS on a drive or a reinstallation.

Yes it's painful... Manufactures and vendors FIX the items that have THE MOST complaints, but often build in NEW problems with devices that worked before! TRY going back to a older version(s) first... ESPECIALLY true if your device worked BEFORE the latest update...

Dont get exactly your problem but i will try to give some tips. 1. Hanged for about 10 to 15 mins, then proceed to windows? if this is the case, then i would check first the boot sequence, sometimes computer uses network boot. 2. Removed external HDD or flash drive when booting. 3. At the BIOS, try to change the SATA mode to compatibility

Buy a HHD docking station that you can drop your SATA hard disk drive into. you plug the Docking Station into an avalable usb port.

From looking around the Internet just now, it appears your camera is old enough that the company no longer makes new drivers. It appears it was made for Windows 95, then updates were made for operating systems through Vista.

distorted sound can be the speakers itself, it can also be the main processor for audio, if you have tried to change the sound settings and this does not help i would think its the speakers as some times they become damaged and split away from the magnet.

If it's a NATIONAL lottery ticket then check whick sponsor does the Lotto in your country. Here it is VODACOM. It could be a scam, but then surely the scammer / syndicate would have something like an email or cell number to contact. It may be a private SONY lotto to draw customers. Your best bet is to contact Sony directly, or go to a Sony agent near you to inquire further.

First thinkg I'd do is to connect an external monitor to the laptop to see if you can get an image, any image, during booting. If you can't see anything, either using the laptop's screen or external monitor, then you have a hardware failure in the laptop that's probably beyond the abilities of a novice to repair. Get somebody who knows about how to clear the CMOS of the laptop.
