Name: David Mendini on Nov 17, 2008Comments: FZ 190 E with of course the wonderful option on sony site to customize with NVIDIA 8400 M GT instead of ATI and result a defective card, the green lines which now even appear after disabling video card. Laptop is super hot the end. Still waiting for either Sony or nvidia to face up and now living in europe after having bought computer in US via sony site...Flag

Name: Eric on Dec 4, 2008Comments: A little over a year after I bought my VAIO, my computer started freezing and shutting down–then the white stripes and pixelation appeared all over my screen. I had to disable my NVIDIA driver in safe mode and start using Microsoft’s Standard VGA Graphics Adapter, just so I could use my computer again. Trying to reinstall any NVIDIA driver crashes my computer and won’t allow it to restart.Flag

Name: Michael Onofre on Dec 15, 2008Comments: I have been having problems with my video cards for a long time. I bought a sony vaio SZ340p. I purchased a sony because i heard there products were fairly reliable and good. After having this Sony Vaio for year and half I wish I never bought it. The machine has been nothing but trouble. It is a complete piece of trash.Flag

Name: Michael Roberts on Dec 18, 2008Comments: In addendum to my post which seems to have gotten cut off... Same problems as everyone else. Couple months after my warranty ran out, my computer froze one day. Shut down my computer, turned it back on and the Vaio boot screen had green vertical lines all over it, and the lines turned yellow during the Windows Progress Bar screen, and were in a pattern like this: ....::.....::.....::....::....::.... all the way across the screen. At that point, the progress bar would go away is if it were about to boot up windows, but it just stayed on a blank, black screen with the yellow vertical ...::... pattern.Flag

Name: Anonymous on Jan 7, 2009Comments: I have owned my VAIO FZ-180E for 14 months. It began malfunctioning with random shut downs and blue screen errors. Eventually, after rebooting, the logo screen was filled with vertical green lines. The next screen displayed a pattern of white artifacts. Windows now fails to boot, and the Vaio displays only a blank, black screen. All efforts at restoration have been unsuccessful.Flag

Name: Vanche on Jan 14, 2009Comments: With a year and 3 months past the purchase date the screen goes blank on one fine day and I did a complete system restore which is neither helpful and the system is booting only in safe mode or when the display device is disabled. I am getting verical stripes all over the screen.Flag

Name: Paul Mick on Jan 18, 2009Comments: My Sony Vaio VGN-FZ11Z GPU failed after sixteen months – just four months out of warranty. I had noticed from day one that the machine got extremely hot on the lower left side of the keypad, and due to my inexperience thought that it was just an annoying feature of an otherwise fine laptop. I used to joke that you couldn’t call the damn thing a laptop since it got far too hot to sit on your lap! I’m not joking now - at the moment (as it’s now out of warranty) I’ve got it booked in at my local repair shop in the hope that they may be able to help. I’m furious – Sony sort yourselves out! - I may well never buy another Sony product again if this is the level of support we can expect.Flag
