There is a specific set of driver you have to install for your computer, Vaio laptops use the ACPI fucnction to control hardware access like volume / brightness control etc
You need the ACPI driver installed for Fn key to work
Install Sony Notebook Control Driver for windows vista
Install Sony Utils.dll
Install Sony Shared Library
same for your sd card reader just reinstall the drivers

sony only supports the factory shipped os drivers you will have to find the drivers for 7 elsewhere or reinstall your factory os

Go to this Webpage and choose User Manual. Follow the instructions Under Upgrading Your Vaio Computer/Installing Memory Module.

What happens when you insert a DVD/CD? If inserting one immediately locks the laptop, and you have already tried uninstalled and reinstalling the drive, its time to purchase another DVD drive for your laptop.

Try to insert the CD from VAIO that came with your purchase package. The CD shoul have the Driver for your soundCard. Try to run and install the soundCard Driver. Or perhaps it just an accidentally you put your MUTE button on Speaker? Try to remove the check-mark on the Volume button on your Windows. Good-Luck!

Hi,

If you got the recovery disk along with the Vaio laptop, good enough.Insert the disk and reboot, follow instruction displayed on the screen to restore.

If you dont have a disk, can try this :--
Reboot and press F11 to try and enter the system recovery mode, if you can then you're good, simply follow the prompts to perform a system recovery.

Let me know the status please.

Thanks
