Is the optical bay on the Z555 modular? If so can anyone point me to a tray for substituting a 2.5inch HD for the DVD.

HP/Compaq :: Envy 15 Dual Harddisk

Oct 26, 2009

I saw so many guys talking about this question, so I opened my Envy 15 1011TX (i7 820m, 500GB HD, 8GB RAM) for a answer.

Please check the attached photo, there's ONLY 1 2.5" drive bay and 2 HDD connector onboard, so it's possible to hold 2 1.8" drive and build a RAID.

HP/Compaq :: 8510p Harddisk Upgradecompatibility

Sep 7, 2009

since i experienced some major problems last weekend on my 8510p gb967ea win xp pro sp3 notebook, i am forced to reinstall the os and i thought this would be a good chance to replace the 5400rpm 160gb drive (sata), especially in order to try out win7 on a big enough partition.

now i called hp and they told me that the maximum possbile would be a 250gb 5400rpm drive or a 200gb 7200rpm drive (which is set inside bios). i definitely would upgrade to a 7200 rpm (if not to a velociraptor or an ssd), but for just a 40gb gain this wouldnt really be worth it, as i will get the new 8540p notebook as soon as they are released with windows 7 and some satisfying hardware (dx11 gpu!), if they get this hardware, which i hope..

so does anyone know whether i should try a bigger drive (i would go for at least a 250gb 7200rpm drive, better 320gb or 500gb) and maybe check compatibility while in the store in order to give it back if it doesnt work, or leave the 160gb 5400rpm drive and wait for the new models?

or is there any way to extend the compatibility restricted inside bios (using the most recent ver. f.15/dec 08 now)?

Dell Studio 1537 :: HardDisk Not Detected In Windows Repair Mode?

Jan 23, 2013

my Windows is not able to boot and I have to repair it with a Windows Vista DVD taken from another Dell (Desktop) PC. The installation is not able to detect a drive and so I am not able to select a Windows installation to repair. I need the drivers for the Harddisk (or controller) to add it to the repair process. The problem is that on the Driver support page only firmware for the hard drive is available but no .inf file that I need for the repait.

where I can find the .inf file or if it is possible to extract the file from the destroyed windows installation (via live-linux).

Sony :: New B Series V.s. CW Series

Jan 22, 2010

B series is released in this January

Which series is better? The B series is for business. This series is only 5.9lbs with 15.4'. On the other hand, the CW series is around 5.5 lbs and it is only 14'. What do you think? Have you ever try B series? 15.4' is pretty good for movie.

Sony :: AR/AW Series

May 5, 2010

I really enjoy the big screen, large HD and fast CPU. And what appears to be a Sony exclusive, a R/W Blu-Ray drive. I watched eagerly at the AW series, thinking that I might pull the trigger on the 'next' laptop in this series.

But as you know, it never came...

So I took a look at the F series at some of the local computer shops (e.g. Fry's and Micro Center)

Sony :: Why No More AW Series

Feb 15, 2010

I was looking at this series all the way back in October when Windows 7 was going to launch. What happens?

They keep Vista on it and the gradually phase it out. The few OS 7 models they had they phased out.

Why did Sony discontinue this Series? I've seen no rumors or anything on an update.

Was it not selling well? Techical problems? Why just drop the line for so long?

Sony :: VGN-FZ Series

Oct 11, 2009

I have a Sony Vaio VGN-FZ27G notebook to be exact and been having a few issues of late, and wondering if there are some clever computer buffs out there to help me solve my dilema.

Firstly I run Vista on 32bit with service pack 1 and just as a side note formated not that long ago.

The main problem is instaling software. Here's when it gets a bit tempremental. Basically it doesn't want to do it, instal software that is. And before you all say "yeah that's an easy one, just run it as Administrator!!" no been there done that and yes it is set as me being administrator etc.

My question, is there a simple oversite or a setting in computer management or even firmware or drivers that need to be definately looked at? I mean it wont even load software at times from the DVD drive let alone from the hard drive!(It wasn't like that before, I know it can do it)

Sony :: NW Series

Jan 18, 2010

I'm seriously considering the NW series and I've read a lot of the good comments/reviews.

1) What is the method behind the model numbers? It seems every site I visit has NW100's, 200's, and 300's. Is there an easy way to translate that into the specs? Is the 300 sub-series any newer or "better" than the 100 and 200 sub-series? Glancing at the specs it seems very arbitrary and I want to make sure I'm not missing something.

2) Is now a good time to buy the NW series? From my research it appears the NW series was revealed early last summer. Do we expect any kind of facelift or "second gen" to come out soon? Any anticipated sales? I'm in no hurry to buy.

3) Is the BD combo worth it if you don't watch movies? I was just wondering if it might be good for laptop resale value in the future, or if software is going to start being sold on BD instead of DVD.

4) Which of the available processors for the NW series is the "best?" Is it worth the money?

5) Is there anything else I should consider before buying an NW? In summary, I'll be using this for internet/itunes/docs and I'm eying the pre-packaged configs in the $650-750 range.

Sony :: ECO Screen For FW Series

Oct 18, 2009

Sony no longer call the cheaper lower resolution screen as ECO screen. Instead, they simply call it "16.4" VAIO Display (1600x900)".

Does it mean that the lower resolution model has the same brightness and color richness as the higher resolution 1920x1080 model? It doesn't seem to be. From the item description, this is what they say .....
