Your best bet would be to either call Sony and see if they have any (it'll probably be more expensive if you get it directly from them though), or you can try Ebay. I know that they have many different parts for all makes and models, so try that.

Sony Vaio and a Sony PS3

Can you sync a Sony Vaio and a Sony Ps3?
I just bought both a Sony Vaio and a Sony PS3, and i was wondering whether you can sync the two in some way? I would imagine since both are sony products that this may be possible. I am just wondering if the two can communicate to each other directly through wi-fi through some kind of function.

You can communicate with a PS3 using any computer. It has to be done using a Media Server (this is the only way your laptop will communicate with the PS3 as well). The most popular Media Servers are WMP11 (Windows Media Player 11) and TVersity, both of which are free. I use both at the same time, but only because WMP11 doesn't like to stream mp4 files. You can transfer photo, music, and video files using a Media Server. These are the only things you can transfer through the Media Server. Here is a page that will give you a few Media Servers, and explain how to set them up if you are not familiar on how to do it: http://www.neogaf.com/forum/showthread.php?t=158357

There are two points in your question. One is how to use it. before you use, you have to activate them. The first way is to go to control panel and activate from there.. the another way may be that you have to find out if you have any software that you need to re install to activate them. The other point is that, it depends how many mega pixels your camera is. I am sure that you no need to start voice chat to take photos. But for this also you must have a software in laptop where you can have the applications to capture photo or capture video etc.. Please check. Or you can call to Sony support any way! Best of luck.

The camera should turn on when one boot up the computer. To check if it turned on or not. goto the Device manager and try to find the imaging device and see if you can find the camera being activated. If one must activate the camera goto Control Panel and click the scanner and camera icon, then doubleclick the camera icon, one can also use the wizard to see if the camera is working You can also try to use it by downloading a copy of MSN live Messager free from here http://get.live.com/messenger/overview and in the Tools menu and Audio and Video setup, one can check if the audio and Video are working properly The Viao manual for VGN-FJ170 can be found here http://www.usersmanualguide.com/sony/computers_-_notebook/vgn-fj170 For your other question whether can use camera to take photo... note that the camera is mainly design for web application as a webcam. One can also use it take snap shot but the quality will not be as good as a ordinary digital camera.

i'm guessing you have an HDtv, if thats the case just use a DVI -> HDMI cable oherwise, VGA perhaps?
2 :
You need a HDMI cable to connect the two devices. It will resemble a USB cable but of longer length. It should be available in any electronics shop for either 30 dollars or 1000 rupees in India. You have another way, thats using a VGA cable. Once you've connected make sure you press Fn+F7 to toggle displays between Laptop and TV. In both the cases you should use your TV remote control to select the input (either HDMI or VGA). Cheers! Wasif
