VAIO Hardware Diagnostics Ver.3.3.0

The VAIO Hardware Diagnostics is a utility program that helps you to determine if your VAIO's problem is related to your hardware or not. 

Computer problems can be caused by a number of factors including the hardware itself. Software installed on your VAIO or its settings could be the cause as well.
As the first step towards solving your computer's problem, let's see if your hardware has any problems by using this software.

These tests only check certain features.Even when no errors are reported, this test will not provide 100% guarantee that the tested device is working without any problems.

The fact that the diagnostics tool finds errors does not endorse you to a repair without some proper troubleshooting being done. Troubleshooting still might be required prior to a repair.

------------------------------------

Let's try the "Quick Test"

Click the [Run Test] button to start the "Quick Test". The tests start automatically. A progress bar is displayed  to show the progress of the test. The test takes about 5 or 6 minutes. Once the diagnostic test completed, the test result will be displayed. Two different messages can be displayed depending on the result.
----------------------------------------
[No hardware errors detected]
----------------------------------------
If this message is displayed, your computer's hardware is working correctly.

-----------------------
[Errors detected]
-----------------------
If this message is displayed, some or all of the tested hardware is not working properly.

If the hardware listed as defective was added after the purchase of your VAIO, please remove it and perform this test again.

If the error message persists, please call Technical Response Center for further assistance. 

Click the [Close] button to close the diagnostic window.
