Once completed turn the laptop on..<BR /></P></BODY></HTML> Thu, 03 Apr 2008 21:56:13 GMT https://community.sony.ba/t5/pcs-accessories/dead-laptop/m-p/11765#M1833 Thalamus. 2008-04-03T21:56:13Z Re: dead laptop https://community.sony.ba/t5/pcs-accessories/dead-laptop/m-p/11766#M1834 <HTML><HEAD></HEAD><BODY><P>Hi Thalamus,<BR />I did all what you said and unfortunately still my laptop is not working <span class="lia-unicode-emoji" title=":disappointed_face:">😞</span><BR />Any ideas what can be wrong? <BR />What should I do next?<BR /></P></BODY></HTML> Sat, 05 Apr 2008 14:15:37 GMT https://community.sony.ba/t5/pcs-accessories/dead-laptop/m-p/11766#M1834 pietra85 2008-04-05T14:15:37Z Re: dead laptop https://community.sony.ba/t5/pcs-accessories/dead-laptop/m-p/11768#M1835 <HTML><HEAD></HEAD><BODY><P>Hi Arek,<BR /><BR />either contact Sony Vaio support, you can do this either by phone or via e-Support, use the following link to find the contact details: <A href="http://support.vaio.sony.co.uk/contacts/contacts.asp?site=voe_en_GB_cons" target="_blank">Sony Vaio Support</A><BR /><BR />Or <BR /><BR />See if a local repairer in your area can identify your Vaio's problem..<BR /></P></BODY></HTML> Sat, 05 Apr 2008 14:21:03 GMT https://community.sony.ba/t5/pcs-accessories/dead-laptop/m-p/11768#M1835 Thalamus. 2008-04-05T14:21:03Z
