Tried running the 'DVD-GATE' application supplied on my new VGC V2S system, gota dialogue box 'This computer is not recognised as a Sony VAIO colmputer'
Is there anyone who hasn't had problems either registering their PC..which Sony seems to make an incredibly difficult process..or using the Sony software WITHOUT problem?
Great looking PC but have had problems from day 1.
Very much doubt if I'd buy another.
Can only suggest you try the Sony Support centre..but problems like this tend to simply baffle them..and you can get sent around the houses for days/weeks before they come up with a solution.
Please do not double post or cross post.
sorry about X-posting, I wasn't sure where the original message should be put, all sorted out thanks to everyones contributions.
I still think the official support/ documentation sucks, but now, at least, I know where I can get help!
if I notice any questions in future which I feel competent to answer, I'll be more than happy to oblige.
No problem, you're right about the documentation, it's a bit poor.
Welcome to the Club
I had the same Problem on the same Vaio PC model VGC-V2S with DV-Gate Plus. I was so angry, that I removed it completely from the system. Then I used de Vaio Recovery Utility to restore it from the recovery paritition, which is on the harddisk. Then I did a download of the update for DV Gate Plus from www.vaio-link.com and installed it
This also solved the problem with the vaio system information tool, which never showed any data. After the sucessfull Update of DV-Gate Plus it finally shows the data.
