<title><![CDATA[Sony Vaio Pro 13: How to replace keyboard?]]></title>
<description><![CDATA[<p>Hello everybody! Just bought a pre-owned Sony Vaio Pro 13 , turns out it has a broken keyboard beyond repair so I just ordered a replacement. After digging around,I reached to a point where I can see the screw holding the keyboard in place, but instead of screws in the other holes ,is something like a melted plastic that hold too . Anyone has an experience with this?</p>

<title><![CDATA[vaio vpcsb: Laptop has to be "warm" to boot to windows but fine with Ubuntu]]></title>
<description><![CDATA[<p>Hi everybody,</p>

<p>I try to cut to the chase. My Vaio machine has this issue for the last couple of years! and keep geeting worse that windows (7,8,10) restarts, shuts down or freezes randomly at boot, startup or in the middle of something. Sometimes with the slightest move or touching the monitor.</p>

<p>I have tried the thing below:</p>

<ul><li>Cleaning the fans</li><li>Updating to the latest driver updates</li><li>Updating BIOS</li><li>Fresh installation of Win 7,8,8.1,10 MANY times</li><li>Installed Ubuntu (working just fine but it's linux)</li><li>Changed the HDD</li><li>Tested the RAM and changed</li><li>Tested with different chargers and batteries</li></ul>

<p>Until recently when I was fed up with Ubuntu and its lack of software, I installed Windows after many tries and learned the windows only boot if the laptop is physically &quot;warm&quot;!</p>

<p>But Ubuntu just works fine if the machine is cold!</p>

<p>For now I have to leave the laptop is BIOS for like 10 min until the fans go crazy and then I know it would boot to Win!!</p>

<p>What's your guess or recommendation to try?</p>

<p>I appreciate your time for reading and helping me, in advance.</p>

<title><![CDATA[Sony Vaio Duo 11: Detaching orange flat cable over SSD]]></title>
<description><![CDATA[<p>Hello!</p>

<p>Hope everyone's doing well. I am a girl newbie with anything to do with chips, cable, screws and what not so please excuse my embarrassingly lacking knowledge on the terminologies. I'm changing the ssd from the vaio duo 11 and there's this orange flat cable thingy hovering over it that I am not sure how to remove safely. Your help is greatly appreciated! And if you can also enlighten me on what that orange cable is called, that'll be awesome too :)</p>

<div class="imageBox imageBox_left"><img src="https://guide-images.cdn.ifixit.com/igi/RpHYGnOeggHNWAO1.standard" width="282" height="224" class="hasMenu hasLarge" alt="Block Image" onclick="window.open(&quot;https:\/\/guide-images.cdn.ifixit.com\/igi\/RpHYGnOeggHNWAO1.full&quot;, '', 'width=823,height=656')" /></div>

<p>NOTE: I have safely removed all the screws and removed the cover without scratching or bumping into anything :).</p>

<p>Thank you a million times!</p>
