What a long hard trip it’s been with Sony! I had bought this computer a few years ago and it was awesome, 3.1 on the clock speed on the CPU, 2 gigs’ of ram, media center, and an extra large hard drive and this was a real work horse of a computer. Never had anything wrong with it and couldn’t slow it down no matter what programs that I was running at the same time.
Last month the machine locked up and that was it, the start of my nightmare with Sony. I had bought the extended service contact with them because this is a water cooled computer. Well after dealing with their level two phone people which I might add made the computer even worst he marked me down for in house repair service. He felt that it needed a new hard drive and video card. Also to have XP Media center reloaded in to the computer. After waiting 10 days for them to get back to me, they finally told me that they weren’t sure they where going to fix it. They said because the computer was old and the cost wouldn’t be worth it to them!
So after replacing the Video card, Had to go to Vista, then the sound card and also the TV Tuner the old girl is back and working great! Now the problem is trying to find all the programs that I had. After moving two times I have misplace a lot of the disks.
This is the last time that I’m going to buy anything Sony! I have called the better business and they are sending me the forms to fill out to do a complaint against them.
On top of all this all my book marks are gone, all my passwords are gone, and most also the programs I used are gone. Talk about starting over from fresh and new!
So if you get an e-mail from me asking for my user id or password that’s the reason for it. It’s been close to 20 days since I could anything with my web site and blogs.
