Hi all, I'm at my wits end now, and have a very pretty, but next to useless and unusable laptop. 

Long story short, my Vaio care constantly crashes, it loads for long enough to click on it, then it crashes. It wont update. 

I've uninstalled all .net frame work, reinstalled it and the vaio care. I've formatted the laptop. I've lost count of how many usless emials I've had from sony that continually say 'oh uninstall, reinstall from this link and then update' that don't work.

Any one got any ideas?
