Hi Donovani,

As you now have USB & CD/DVD problems, I suggest you run the Vaio Recovery Utility and restore your Vaio back to it's original factory setting..

Warning this will delete all data on your HDD drive before restoring your Vaio back to the default Vista OS and original pre-installed applications. Therefore ensure you back up important data first..

To Recover your Vaio, click Start, then All Programs, followed by Vaio Recovery Utility.

Click Continue on the User Account Control window.

In the menu select Recover Your Computer then click OK

In the Recovery Menu select C Drive Recommended then click Next

Continue the Recovery process..

Office 2007 and other software can easily be reinstalled. The files you need to backup are Personal files that can't be replaced i.e. photo's, documents etc.
