Your disk drive may have a problem if that is the case try an external (working) disk drive or if you have an ISO version of the recovery in flash drive you can also do that. Also make sure to load defaults on bios first.

my disc wont boot from startup, even with the bios set to boot from disc first.

Nor will they startup form the .EXE on the disc.

Is this a sign that these aren’t the disc for my model?

Please help, this is my bosses computer.Ahhhh!

Visit the Sony site and look for their customer service number. Regarding the password, did you try Administrator with no password or maybe Admin with no password?

I need to close this topic. Please join our forums and we’ll continue there, everyone.

They’ll probably charge a small fee for shipping and the costs of the disks–but I do not think it will cost much. Call them and find out.

Also, due to the popularity of this topic, I will have to close it and ask that all future questions be asked on our free computer repair forums at http://www.pctechbytes.net/forums/

Dave, I made recovery discs from the wizard on my computer, however 1 of the discs has a scratch in it and I didn’t realize it until I started the restore. So I tried to reboot my system normally and it says “operating system not found.” so unfortunatly I need new discs. If I call that sony number to send me discs does it cost money or is it 100% free?

Hi, i have forgotten my password to log onto my account on my sony vaio so i turned on the guest account to see if it would let me change it but it didnt. it keeps asking for a password reset disk but i didnt make one. I also tryed making a recovery disk but it didnt work. Where do i purchase those Cds from?
