The software playing the bluray disc (PowerDVD) will only play it on the primary display. You will have to set your tv to be your primary display in order to watch the movie.

This only happens with bluray and HD-DVD discs.

If you need help let me know.

yes some laptops can run with out battery,and some batterys can stop a laptop from staring if faulty.

It really depends on the specification of your machine. If it had Windows 7 or 8 on it before then it should run Windows 7 again no problem. You can install that. If it had Windows XP or and earlier version of Windows then it may not be a high enough Spec to run Windows 7.

unplug your modem and router (if you have one) leave them unplugged for 15 seconds or so. Plug them back in. reboot your computer and check to see if the problem is resolved. as for the audio issue. go into "control panel" click on "hardware and sound" tab and then go to "Manage audio devices" here you can look for the tab that connects to the sound system you use, if its' speakers and headphones, click on that, you should have several choices.

there is a free program called "malwarbytes" download it and then run the software. It sounds like you may have picked up a malware program.

It is due to some of the keys on your Laptop is stuck up. You have to replace the keypad to solve the issue

First you have to report in your local police station with your details & serial number. You have to register a complaint requesting the Sony team for the laptop MAC address. Sony will provide the MAC number and with that MAC address you can easly traceout your laptop.
