Today I found a great source with service manuals for Sony Vaio VGN series laptops and notebooks. Links to the service manuals were posted on one of the Russian forums (comment 13). Not sure for how long these service manuals will be available for downloads but they are the time of wringing this post. Some files are large and it might take some time to download them, so be patient.

All service manuals are in PDF format and you can download them using below mentioned links.

Valerie,
Could be bad memory. If you have two memory sticks installed, you can remove them one by one and test the laptop with each stick separately.
If the laptop works fine with one module and will not boot with the second one, the last module is bad and has to be replaced.

I have a Sony VAIO VGNFS-790 that is having problems.
The “power” light is on, but the screen isnt. It doesnt even boot up or make noises, like it is completely dead.
When I unplug the charger, the “battery on” light turns on, and the “power” light stays on too. However, when I plug the charger into the computer to charge it, the “charging” light doesnt come on, or blink like it should, but the light on the charger box is green, meaning it is working fine.
PLEASE HELP! Any info would help. Thanks!

Does anyone know the part number for the Escutcheon (L) part for the sony vaio vgn-sz340P. It’s a silver part that’s on the left side of the laptop. The slot where the memory stick goes has a crack in it. I’m really having a hard time knowing if the parts that I’ve found are ther right one because I don’t have the part number.

japhet m. seguis,
Try using “Last Known Good Configurations” option from the boot menu. You can get to the boot menu if you press F8 on startup.
Also, try booting in Safe Mode. If you can boot to the desktop try using System Restore utility and revert Windows back.

YARA,
1. Make sure all volume controls (hardware and software) are turned up.
2. Download and reinstall the audio driver.
