[. . . ] Check if the Access Point is displayed in Available networks. Connection availability is affected by distance and obstructions. You may need to move your computer away from obstructions or neared to any Access Point you may be using. nN 91 Using your VAIO computer The data transfer speed is slow The maximum communication speed can vary depending on the obstacles or the distance between the communication devices, the radio waves, the operating system or the software you use. Remove the obstacle or make the distance between the Access Point and your machine smaller. It is possible that your Access Point communicates at the same time with another Access Point. If several computers communicate with the same Access Point, the concentration may be too high. Wait a few minutes and try to access again. If a Wireless LAN device using the IEEE 802. 11g standard communicates with a device using the IEEE 802. 11b standard, then it is normal that the speed reduces. In general, devices using the IEEE 802. 11g standard are 5 times faster than the ones using the IEEE 802. 11b standard, but this does not apply to PCG-K series. I cannot access the Internet Check the settings of the Access Point. Check if your computer and the Access Point are communicating. Make the distance between the Access Point and your machine smaller. nN 92 Using your VAIO computer I cannot use a Wireless LAN network Check if the Wireless Zero Configuration service is active. To avoid this, you can change the settings in the Power Options Properties screen (right-click the power status icon on the taskbar - select Adjust Power Properties - select the Power Schemes tab and change the settings in Settings for VAIO optimized power scheme). Using Hibernate mode The state of the system is saved on the hard disk and power is turned off. Even when the battery runs down, no data will be lost. The power indicator light is off in this mode. To activate Hibernate mode, proceed as follows: Press <Fn>+<F12>. The Hibernating screen appears and the computer enters Hibernate mode. Alternatively, Click Start, and then Turn Off Computer. In the Turn off computer screen, hold down the <Shift> key and click Hibernate. nN 95 Using your VAIO computer To return to Normal mode, proceed as follows: Turn on the computer by pressing the power button. The computer returns to its previous state. If you press the power button for more than four seconds, the computer will switch off automatically. If you do not use the AC adapter for a long period of time, put your computer into Hibernate mode. This power saving mode saves you the time of shutting down in the normal way. When the computer is in Hibernate mode, you cannot insert a disc. Hibernate mode requires more time than Standby mode to be activated. [. . . ] Do not bend, drop, or apply strong shock to the Memory Stick. Do not disassemble or modify Memory Sticks. Do not use or store Memory Sticks in a location subject to: Extremely high temperatures, such as in a car parked in the sun, Direct sunlight, High humidity or, Corrosive substances. Use the storage case supplied with the Memory Stick. nN 192 Precautions On handling the memory card adapter (VGN-A series) Do not touch the memory card adapter connector with your finger or metallic objects.
