The Li-ion battery in my Sont PCG-R505EL is type PCGA-BP2R. RTHis battery was working well with a fair life when it failed suddenly - no output, no charging so...
I hate to resurrect this thread, but I'm trying to find the antenna for this setup. I can find the card on ebay easily, but not the antenna. Any suggestions?...
Hello, I recently added internal wireless to my R505GL - a very similar model to yours. Any standard antennas will do. On ebay just search for "mini pci...
Hi, I've got 2 N505X VAIO's (Cel-333, oldies goldies!) with the following problem: One I can boot from CD (for install of WinXP) The second N505X is UNABLE to...
Hi there. With the long antennas, you will need to wrap it around the edges of the casing. This could be potentially tricky - which is why I opted for the ...
It's 802.11 b/g, and the antenna looks like this: http://i19.ebayimg.com/03/i/06/3d/c0/dd_1.JPG THe length refers to the lead wire length, it's either this...
I have a PCG-Z505SX. Does anyone know if one can use 100 MHz RAM in this model? I want to install more RAM and happen to have a 128MB 100MHz card. SONY's...
What is the name of the card? Some 100mhz are backwards compatable with 66mhz and if it fits the slot I would just try it. If it doesn't work it will just not...
I have an application (Adobe Premiere Pro 2) that needs more than 500MB ram so fails to install but am up to the limit for the 505EL (384MB I think). Can I...
You should be able to go out and buy a RAM stick that is the capacity you need, iirc they do sell those in capacities up to 2gig, and a 512M stick whould do...
Hi everybody, I have received a PCG-N505VX SONY VAIO laptop. It is a P-II 333MHz, and 128mb RAM. It has an external CD-ROM drive, but no floppy drive. I intend...
I think that machine will struggle to run XP or 2000, especially with only 128MB RAM. If you can bump that to 512MB, minimum, you can make that machine run...
Hi, I'm using the same model N505VX with 128MB of RAM. I installed WindowsXP without any problem, except Fn keys for sleep, mute, brightness, LCD/VGA. I didn't...
I recently deleted some spam from the list. However, new members apparently need to be reminded to NOT REPLY TO SPAM POSTINGS. And especially DON'T QUOTE THE...
Just wanted to let you know that it is easy to replace the HD in the R505DL. I was scared after reading some of the posts concerning other R505 models. All you...
Well, the hardware was easy but replacing the image or installing windows is not. I am not able to load window after trying either method. I get an error that...
I always use cloning software like Acronis True Image or Ghost rather than image files or reinstalls to avoid the exact problem you are having. Put your...
Hi I replaced the hard drive on my Sony VAIO PCG-862A (Model: PCGXG500). I installed Windows XP pro. I installed LINKSYS Wireless-G Notebook Adapter. I...
Hi Bob, The Linksys card should have come with Windows XP Drivers. Probably in the form of a CD-ROM? If you can't find it & have access to the Internet, Go to...
I have a bad CMOS Battery. I ordered one that I thought would work since it specifically said Vaio models including mine PCG505TR. Anyway, when it got here...
You're gonna think I'm nuts, but I'd first check the price at the Sony Accessories Store to see what it is? I guess that really won't help though, being that...
Mine came with the wires and connector affixed. Go to: http://www.batterymart.com/battery.mv?Screen=SFNT&Store_Code=store&Affiliate=hitsusa and search on...
Oops Wrong forum. Sorry! But battery mart should have a Sony CMOS battery, just harder to search for. --Bill Brady - wmbrady@... [Non-text portions of...
