Hi ,

Bought a sony viao - VPCW13EG on Oct 2009 and 10 months later , one fine morning i get an error - Operating system not found

Took it to the service center - found out that the hard disk had conked off

How is this possible ?

My friends have used a DELL for the last 7 years without a SINGLE complaint .

Useless Sony - Dump them!!

Buy DELL - it is at least fault free -

DUMP SONY!!!

Hard disk failure is not Sony's fault and you loosing data because of hard disk failure is your own mistake. If the data you are talking about was so important why did you not keep a backup? Even better use a desktop computer with lots of hard drives and Raid10 configuration and you would not loose your data with one disk failure.

Blaming Sony for your ignorance is not welcome atall. I have been myself using sony products ever since I was a little kid and I see it second to none. Not trying to promote sony but your remark come across as a dell propoganda instead of being a genuine issue.

Learn how to use a computer/laptop and the do's and dont's and you wont have any more complaints ever again.
