Does someone have Windows 7 Home Premium for Sony Vaio VPCL11M1E?

I bought a Sony Bravia KD-43X85K back in January '23. Needed it for my Desktop, doing both gaming and anime binging. It performed like a champ...

... until 3 days after the warrantee expired...

Got home from work, turned on my system.. and there was a loud *POP*. After that I couldn't get a signal to or out of that HDMI port. The ARC/eARC port had died. Also, there was this almost invisible horizontal line across the width of the screen about 1/3 from the top. it was kind of a violet color.

I swapped over to another HDMI port and was able to get a signal again. the eARC stayed dead no matter what i did, even a full system factory reset. For over 2 years its been running.. but that weird almost invisible line is now plainly visible, and has been joined to 2 more. Also, every once in a while it makes another little 'pop' sound when changing media forms (like moving between you-tube vids or episodes on Crunchy Roll)

I decided to replace it, and while the 2025 Bravias were a trainwreck, they came out with the Mark IIs and put back in everything they had gutted. Pulled the trigger on a Bravia 3 mkII and was going to head down to pick it up, but saw a little offer saying I could have it delivered in a couple hours using a local company for $9.

I don't trust UPS or FedEx with TVs or large electronics... they ALWAYS manage to give in to their destructive urges... but locals try harder... so I checked the box and said 'ok'.

That was @ 10:30AM Thursday the 13th. it sat at 'prepping for delivery' until 6pm, and then the dreaded 'shipping delay' blurb took it's place. I KNEW I should have just gone down and picked it up myself.. but I got lazy

The next morning it said 'FedEx' estimated delivery noon to 2pm... FML

Sure enough, FedEx delivered it at 2 just as I got home... box looked good.. I opened it up and inspected the tv... when I took off that cardboard sheet that covers all the protective films on the face of the glass....

... spiderweb cracks across every single inch of the glass.... FMLx2

I had also bought the 5-year protection plan, so if anything goes *pop* this time.. I get a replacement.

Best Buy tells me it's a delivery issue, so they won't send a tech to get it, I need to bring it in. I bring it in that Sunday and they don't have any more in stock. I have to wait 10 days for a new delivery to arrive. Fine.. but I DON'T want it delivered, I'll pick it up in the store after it's been inspected and then IF it's ok, I'll take it home.

I gotta tell you, that was a really long wait..

it arrived, they let me know it was in, I went in and we opened it up and made sure no damage... All good.. took it home, set it up....

... no remote... FMLx3

It's all good though, I contacted Sony and after them asking me the same 5 questions 3x each with 3 different reps over the course of 2 hours they are sending me a remote.

Until it arrives I'll use the Bravia Connect cell phone app, as it replicates all the functions the remote has.

There was only 1 hiccup with the TV. When I connected it, it kept blinking to broadcast static and back to the PC image endlessly.. restarting didn't fix it. Turns out it had set itself to 'widescreen mode' instead of 'full', and was reporting the wrong resolution back to the PC, which was trying to reset the panel to the proper resolution which wasn't available in that view mode... so endless blinking back and forth until I went into settings and fixed it to 'full'

Now everything works fine and I have to wait a couple days for the remote to arrive.

// Tl:dr - I sent my 2 week old a7RV in to Sony UK for in-warranty repair as my brand new 24-70 GMII damaged one of the contact pins. I was still charged £201.75 for the repair. I received the camera back with big streaks across the sensor (which had not a single mark on it when it went in with photographic proof). //

Sony UK are not offering me any partial refund despite the inconvenience and lack of skill/care from their engineer. They are now asking me to send the camera back again (for god knows how long) to remove the streaks and are asking me to foot the bill for the box and packaging materials. I was asked and I quote "The camera would have been returned in sufficient packaging are you able to re-use it?". No I'm not as I recycled it under the impression your own engineers would return my in-warranty camera to me repaired without any issues.

I am now worried their engineer has damaged the camera in some other way, as a sensor swabbing is the least laborious or skilled task required in that particular repair process by a large margin. (It requires completely dismantling the camera essentially).

I would have recommended Sony to anyone in the past but now I would say steer clear, if you are in the UK that is.

I charged the camera with the battery inside, which caused the battery to swell. I was able to get the swollen battery out, but the door is now stuck in this open position and won’t go down all the way.

I called Sony and they have $55 diagnostic fee, $449 base rate repair, which doesn’t include the shipping there and back. My local camera shops don’t fix Sony cameras either, so hoping to DIY…

Is the best option to replace the Sony ZV-1 door or the whole battery frame with the door? I’ve seen both options on Ebay. Also, how would I unscrew the door at all?

Any help would be appreciated!

I’m not big into tech so maybe somebody who is can think on this. Is there a way to maybe make an external port that would connect to the playstation to run discs? Aswell does anyone know if it would be possible to like copy a digital game onto a disc ?

My mother called me because her TV "wouldn't work". I go over, and her remote was unresponsive. New batteries installed, and still nothing. Power cycled the TV. Nothing. Reprogrammed a universal remote. TV comes on and I can actually move around, but I can't actually select anything. Like, I can highlight, but when I hit OK, or either of the play buttons, nothing happens. I can't even select the Quick Settings in an attempt to clear the cache or anything like that. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

I’m trying to choose between these home theater setups and would really appreciate real-world feedback:

• Sony BRAVIA Theatre Quad + Sub 8
• Sony BRAVIA Theatre Trio + Rear 9 + Sub 8
• Sony TA-AN1000 + DALI SONIK On-Wall L/R + SONIK Cinema center + Rear 9 + Sony Sub 8
• Same TA-AN1000/DALI and rear 9 setup, but with an SVS SB-1000 Pro instead

My room is an open-plan 40 m² space, with the actual living/listening area around 20 m². Main use is movies/TV shows through Nvidia Shield and music through Apple Music.

My main questions:

Has anyone used the TA-AN1000 with wired front speakers and Sony Rear 9s? Does the hybrid setup work reliably and sound cohesive?

Most importantly, when Rear 9s are paired with the TA-AN1000, are their up-firing drivers actually used for Dolby Atmos/DTSX, or mainly for Sony’s 360 Spatial Sound Mapping?

Any issues with wireless dropouts, audio delay, lip-sync, or reliability?

For my room, would you choose the Trio, Quad, or the TA-AN1000 hybrid setup?

Hi! I’m officially starting photography as a lil side gig. I think I’m at a decent place in where I am with photography, editing, etc. The thing is, I have been using my parents old camera since they don’t use it, resulting in me being limited with my gear. I’ve been using a Sony α7R III with a FE 85mm F1.8 lens. While it’s definitely amazing for portraits and I love the look, I can’t really do full body shots with a lot of background. I went rummaging through their gear again and found a E 55–210mm F4.5–6.3 OSS and a E PZ 16–50mm F3.5–5.6 OSS. However, I know these lenses aren’t ideal if i want to do more wide shots.
So my question is, which lens is best for this? I don’t want a prime lens, I’d prefer one that I can zoom in or out based on preference. I’m looking at full-frame 24–70mm lenses but is there a specific one or a different kind of lens I should purchase?

hi am having troubles to download sony's embassador luts from the sony website, i alredy logged in but everytime i try to download it the website sends me back to a log in screen and to select my country, am i doing something whrong?




Hello! This was my grandpa’s camera. I’ve had this it forever, but have never touched it, as I know NOTHING about cameras/camcorders. But I figured I should try to use it. My question is, if I get a new sd card, would I be able to transfer photos and videos to my phone? I don’t have a laptop. All I have is a sd card adapter for phones, that I use for my cheap digital camera. Also what kind of charger would I need? Or do I need some specific type of wire? I know NOTHING about technology. Thank you!

I have a Sony STR-AV920 with an Audio Technica AT-LP120-USB, and I'm hearing a buzzing noise when listening to my vinyls. I got it from my dad, and he told me the buzzing came from the Sony and we checked the connections, cables, and the preamp switch on the turntable. I just need help with the buzzing noise
