I purchased my Sony Vaio laptop last year in March 2009. Now its just been over a year and the fan is making so much noise that it is impossible to work on it. I tried going back to the shop where i bought it from but they said that your warranty has finished and this is a problem with all Sony Vaio's so we cant help you. I have to get it fixed by paying Dhs 500 for the fan and even that comes without a guarantee. Why should i pay for this manufacturing fault?! What kind of a stupid laptop is this that it is having this problem just after a year. I want the Sony people to fix my laptop ASAP.
