Sony Vaio And Windows 7 Crashing

Evening All,

I have a sony vaio and everytime a play a dvd it causes the DVD to stop and when I go to Task Manger it says windows explorer has stopped responding and needs to restart. they only way I can get it to play again is to reboot! then it will do the same again!

This is starting to annoy me now does anyone have any suggestions

Running Windows 7

Cheers

Do you have a backup from before the problem started that we can restore from?

Do you have a win 7 dvd that we can do a repair install with?

does it do the same thing when booted in safe mode (F8)?


Let us know

Evening,

I dont have any back up's only of data

I dont have a windows 7 dvd as I upgraded from Vista using the official sony Vaio upgrade path

I cant get the DVD to play in safe mode? maybe me but doesn't want to play like it would do when windows boots up normally.

Thanks
