My mouse does not work
If you have connected an external mouse to the mini USB connector, it 
may cause some problems when you transfer high-speed or high-capacity 
data. Use the USB connector.
I cannot use DV devices and messages appear on the screen
Check that the DV device is turned on and that the cables are 
properly connected.
If you are using multiple i.LINK devices, the combination of the 
connected devices may cause unstable operation. In this case, turn off 
the power to all connected devices and disconnect unused devices. 
Check the connection, then turn on the power again.
My computer does not shut down
It is best to shut down your computer using the Shut Down command on 
the Windows Start menu. Using other methods, including those listed 
here, may result in loss of unsaved data. If the Shut Down command does 
not work properly, follow these steps:
Restart the computer by pressing Ctrl+Alt+Delete. If this does not 
work, slide the power switch forward and hold it for four seconds.
Unplug the computer from the AC adapter and remove the battery 
pack from your computer.
My PC card is not working
Make sure the PC card is compatible with Windows.
Use the Sony Notebook Setup utility to disable devices you are not 
currently using.
When I remove the Memory Stick media, an error message appears.
Insert the media into the slot again and press the Enter key. Wait until the 
active application finishes, then remove the media. If the message 
confirms eject of the media, click OK. 
Power Management
The operating system may become unstable if a lower power state such as 
system hibernation is initiated and then changed before the operating 
system completely enters the lower power state. To restore the computer 
to its normal operating stability, close all open applications, button 
forward and hold it there for four seconds or more to completely shut 
down the computer.
