Silly question - but have you turned on the GPS?

To use the GPS function
1 Turn on the WIRELESS switch.
2 Click the VAIO Smart Network icon on the taskbar.
3 Click the switch next to GPS to toggle it to On in the VAIO Smart Network window.

✍Driver software will be installed when you first activate the GPS function on the VAIO Smart Network.

The switching utility is called 'Vaio Smart Network' - check you have the latest version

VAIO Smart Network - 3.3.1.08110 32 / 64 bits 5.69 MB 09/09/2010

You can download it from the support site for your model here: -
