You have to put the windows disk in, and then shut down computer. Make sure the laptop is set to boot from cd. Then follow the on screen instructions.
PS BACK UP ALL YOUR IMPORTANT FILES BEFORE INSTALLING / REFORMATTING WINDOWS!

Disk read error

Hey,

If you receive this error in start up and your computer doesn't load windows. It was unable to read the disk.

Please use your recovery discs (or windows installation cd/dbd) to restore the computer. If the recovery discs don't solve the problem and you still receive the same error, the hard drive is possibly damaged. I would suggest to take the laptop to a professional for testing and fixing.


Thanks and good luck.

Backup for Sony vaio

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
