As above Sony Vaio VGN-NR21M running on vista home premium 32bit.
Doesn't charge properly. It is the correct charger but will only charge if the laptop is tilted.
Laptop constantly shuts itself off. Possible over heating.
Built in wireless used to work up until recently, now will not work at all. Intel (R) pro wireless 3945ABG. Have uninstalled and reinstalled downloaded new and older drivers. According to device manager is working correctly.
Have restored back to factory settings and is still the same.
Any suggestions before i take it back to the shop?

I had a recall on my Sony Vaio transformer. They sent me a free replacement."A nation's greatness is measured by how it treats its weakest members." ~ Mahatma Gandhi

If wireless is not working after doing a destrutive restore that gets rid of all your files too then it be a faulty card.Hi, we’ve had to remove your signature. If you’re not sure why please read the forum rules or email the forum team if you’re still unsure - MSE ForumTeam0
