I'm unable to register my Sony Vaio VGN-FZ31S laptop. It doesn't recognise the model number and I can't select it from the drop down list. The product code (VGN-FZ31S) is definitely correct as if I go to "Support" I can select this model from the list and get the drivers etc.</P><P></P><P>Ultimately what I want to get is the BIOS driver / install file.</P><P></P><P>And so whilst I can't register this product I'm also unable to email Sony support either. Does anyone have a valid email address if there's no help for my above 2 points!</P><P></P><P>Many thanks in advance.</P></BODY></HTML> Fri, 03 Feb 2012 15:36:06 GMT https://community.sony.ie/t5/pcs-accessories/unable-to-register-sony-laptop/m-p/293246#M28397 RochCh 2012-02-03T15:36:06Z Unable to register Sony Laptop https://community.sony.ie/t5/pcs-accessories/unable-to-register-sony-laptop/m-p/293248#M28398 <HTML><HEAD></HEAD><BODY><PRE __jive_macro_name="quote" class="jive_text_macro jive_macro_quote">Ultimately what I want to get is the BIOS driver / install file.</PRE><P>Hi RochCh,</P><P>welcome to Questions &amp; Answers..:smileyhappy:</P><P></P><P>Is this Vaio new to you or did you forget to register your FZ31S when orginally purchased..:smileyconfused:</P><P></P><P>There are a selections of downloads available for your vaio on the Vaio Support site, click on the following link - <A href="http://www.sony.co.uk/support/en/product/VGN-FZ31S/updates">Downloads &amp; Preinstalled Drivers and Utilities</A>, but unfortunately nothing for the BIOS..</P></BODY></HTML> Fri, 03 Feb 2012 15:41:38 GMT https://community.sony.ie/t5/pcs-accessories/unable-to-register-sony-laptop/m-p/293248#M28398 Thalamus. 2012-02-03T15:41:38Z Unable to register Sony Laptop https://community.sony.ie/t5/pcs-accessories/unable-to-register-sony-laptop/m-p/293249#M28399 <HTML><HEAD></HEAD><BODY><P>Hi Roch. You might have typed the incorrect model number. Try calling their support hotline so they could walk you through with this. </P><P></P><P>I'm assuming that your notebook is still under warranty. <IMG alt="http://imagicon.info/cat/12-13/vbulletin-smile.gif" class="jive-image" src="https://ip2.i.lithium.com/c63e93609b6579117c7c5b5c9520db84c85449af/687474703a2f2f696d616769636f6e2e696e666f2f6361742f31322d31332f7662756c6c6574696e2d736d696c652e676966" /></P></BODY></HTML> Fri, 03 Feb 2012 20:01:23 GMT https://community.sony.ie/t5/pcs-accessories/unable-to-register-sony-laptop/m-p/293249#M28399 flogger12345 2012-02-03T20:01:23Z Unable to register Sony Laptop https://community.sony.ie/t5/pcs-accessories/unable-to-register-sony-laptop/m-p/293251#M28400 <HTML><HEAD></HEAD><BODY><P>Thanks Thalamus.
