Troubleshooting Sony® Laptops
What are the common issues occurring in Sony laptop? How can you troubleshoot the same?
A laptop is made up of hardware and software components and is prone to face certain issues as the time progresses. Sometimes it is due to the general wear and tear of components that create technical issues.
In this section, we can discuss about common issues that might occur in Sony laptop, some of which are:
- Laptop screen is blank
- Laptop freezes while a disk is inserted
- Unable to print document
- Wrong keyboard configuration
Laptop screen is blank
This is actually not an issue but a situation that arises when your system does not receive power or goes into sleep/hibernate mode. Make sure that your system continuously receives power and that the power source is turned on if it is connected to the battery.
Laptop freezes while a disk is inserted
When a dust filled dirty disk in inserted in the system it could freeze, indicating there is a problem. You need to shut down your system for this by using ‘CTRL+ALT+DEL’ or press the power button to forcefully shut it down. Hence, you must ensure that a cleaned disk is inserted in the drive.
This means your printer is not working with your Sony laptop. Check that your system has proper drivers installed for the printer and that the printer itself is compatible with the operating system on Sony. After that make sure that the printer cable is properly plugged into your system and the power supply is turned on. If your printer has bi-directional communications enabled then disable the same in your Sony laptop settings.
The language selection of Sony laptop is normally marked on the packaged box and while setting it up if you choose some other language then your keyboard might not work. To troubleshoot this issue, go to ‘Control Panel’ and then click on ‘Region and Language’. On this screen select ‘Keyboard and Languages’ tab and then click on the ‘Change Keyboard’ button. From here select appropriate language for your keyboard and then click ‘OK’.
