Sony Vaio PCG-61411L: "Operating Systen not Found"

Thu, 03 Aug 2017 09:30:31 -0700

I have a Sony computer of this type that is a Windows 7 and 32 bit. Recently though, while I was deleting things off my computer, I must've accidentally deleted the Operating System and most likely some more things.

Please help me solve this problem as it doesn't allow my computer to function and just says "Operating System not Found" repeatedly when I start the computer.

Sony Vaio PCG-61411L: Screen won't turn on (black screen)

Sun, 05 Dec 2021 09:29:27 -0700

Okay, let's start with what happened...

I was normally using my laptop for watching my favorite shows, when I accidentally dropped a samsung phone charger (about 1 ft high up) on it around the spacebar, and the screen flashed gray and white. I forcefully unplugged the laptop, and of course, the blinking stopped. I turned it on afterwards, now the screen is just black, but everything else seems to work just fine.

I think that the problem has to do with me hitting the spot where the video/graphics card is situated, but I'm not sure because I am a noob when it comes to this stuff.

I hope that this won't lead to me fully changing my laptop and buying a new one, because I am financially troubled. But, given the circumstances, I probably will.

Thank you for anyone who will answer!

My gf has this laptop and every once in a while the computer turns on but not the screen. I'm a tech in training so I'm still new I think it may be the microprocessor. I have tried restarting it, I tried using new monitors and even a TV through HDMI and neither pick it up. Also the computer i's ON but it doesn't seem to respond no login screen tone and I tried blind putting in the pass. And nothing. After a few days weeks even longer it usually will come back on for a little until the problem happens again. It seems to be completely random when it happens and it's recovery time also seems random except each time it happens it takes longer and longer to come back right now it's been off for about 3 months. My experience with laptop repair i's very very little. I do know though that a lot of parts are not cross compatible with other laptops but I was wondering 1, does this sound like the microprocessor to anyone else and 2, can I replace it?
