Hmm, that's strage, I'm gussing it's something to do with Norton... But i've personally used Norton for years and yet to see a BSOD on start up because of it.

I think, if you can't find anything to sort out the problem the best thing you could to do is hold F10 when starting the VAIO up and follow the on-screen instructions and do a fresh intall of Windows, as your computer is new it seems you wont lose anyhting in the process. Otherwise, try that. I'm not too sure what else you can do. 😞

i ve contacted with sony vaio support center and they tried to help me, but it was pointless

they told me that it is propably a mechanical isssue and that ishould go to the shop i bought it and have it replaced.
and thank God everything is ok now with the new one..... :smileygrin: :smileygrin: :smileygrin:
