Hi rodserv and welcome to Club Vaio.
Have you tried turning your Vaio on -> Tap F10 repeatedly when you see the first Vaio Logo screen -> this should start the Recovery Utility from your Hard Drive Recovery Partition.
Choose a full recovery and make sure your Vaio is connected to the AC Power supply. Don't interrupt the recovery whatever happens - even if it appears to have stopped.
If it works then make a new set of Recovery Discs!
HI AND MANY THANKS .IVE TRIED THAT IT SAYS CANNOT RECOVER.IT MUST BE THAT MY HARD DRIVE HAS BEEN FORMATTED FROM WHEN I PUT RECOVERY DISK IN AND IT STOPPED AT 17% ?
It sounds like you will have to phone Sony Support tomorrow and ask them to send you a replacement set of Recovery Discs.
0870 240 2408
They will probably charge £30!
thanks foryour help. would the disks of someone elses of the same model work do you think ?
