    Hi everybody

    I bought one laptop couple of days ago...and I have some issues with it.

    Sony VAIO EB1E0E 15.5 inch notebook (Core i3-330M 2.13GHz, 3Gb, 320Gb, DVDRW, Webcam, Win 7 Home Premium 64bit (Matte White)). Configuration is quite good, new family of processor...but still...

    The most disturbing thing, is that when I press right-mouse click I get a lag for 2-2,5 seconds, which doesn't happen in my 10 inch laptop which is less powerful as this one...I've tried also in my fathers laptop, and everything works well there also...but not for the Sony

    I've uninstalled all software that I don't need, even removed the anti virus, disabled every start-up that I don't need and still no difference...

    Do you think that something is wrong with the processor?

    I was expecting much more from Sony Vaio...but I am a bit disappointed. Also the screen is quite bad, very white, not much contrast, no LED...What happened to Sony Vaio legacy?

    Any ideas guys what might be wrong?

    EB have poor screen, because they are very cheap for a Sony laptop.

    There is definetly something wrong with right button and have nothing to do with CPU, try some live linux CD and see how it works there.

    Yes, weird for a big company like Sony...the screen is really bad...

    I can't install Linux on it. But I am just wondering why my other 2 laptops don't have this issue...

    When I bought my laptop I also had some issues, I just reinstalled windows and everything worked fine ever since (xept for the suicidal gpu), I know its a bit drastic but it might be worth a shot.

    That's kind of weird to get a new laptop and then install the windows 2 days after :D

    Wow what happened? is it software issue or you have to send it out for repairs?
    I have been using mine for almost a month now and it has been great. I also opt for the FullHD screen so no complaints on that either.

    I am starting to believe that it's a hardware issue...

    Why is it weird? If your windows version is installed with tons of errors and junk software and nothing works like its suposed to, I see no other option but to do a big clean up. If it works it works...
