How long does it run before it shuts down? Does the laptop get hot? If so, make sure the air intake and exhaust ports are clean.

I had to figure this out not long ago.
First you need to pry up the piece of plastic trim that covers the speakers at the top of the keyboard.
Next romove the screws that hold in the keyboard. they will all be along the top of the keyboard.
Once that is out of the way. Remove the screws that secure the metal sheild plate and remove the plate.
You can now see the two fans. If you follow the air ducting from the fans there will be some peices of a tape like material that once pulled back will give you access to the airway to the cooling fins. This is were you will use compressed air to blow out dust build up.
It is also a good idea to clean the fan blades.
Once this done, replace the tape covers and reassemble.
I hope this helps because I couldnt find any info on this on the web.

go to the following website, scroll down and download mobility modder. http://www.driverheaven.net/modtool.php you will also need to download the lates catalyst software from ati don't worry that it isn't for your graphics card because mobility modder will change the files. finally follow all the instructions on the dh modder webpage where you downloaded it from and you can't go wrong. i used to have a sony vaio and i couldn't beleive how sony supports their customers after sale. they haven't and probably never will release a driver for these graphics cards. Shame on Sony!

Sorry about your SONY problems.
You may want to try another charger,
Your charger changes your input voltage from A/C 120V / 220V to a constant regulated 19.77 ? Volts DC. or direct currant.
If your charger is allowing to much A/C to pass to the Unit, the unit may charge OK but with sense the incoming and as a protection, will shut down the power source.
I would take the charger to a Radio Shack or maybe someone qualified to check it !
If the charger is fairly old and you live in a lightning area, this may be the case.
If your unit will run without the charger attached, Boot it up regularly ( not in safe mode ) and make sure the battery if not at fault.
If you have a battery check utility !
Hope this information has helped you with your problem.
