    Hi all,

    I did search all thread but cannot find my answer. I got Vaio FZ190 with faulty Nvidia chip, then i had my motherboard replaced. The problem is i cannot restore my C: drive using DVD i made. So, i tried hidden partition by press F10 and is also not working. Here is the code i got while i was trying to do so,

    "Cannot use this recovery disc for this computer. Confirm the model number"

    when I click Ok, this message appears

    "error: CompareSnyIniToPacIni, Error: 92"

    Then I click OK and it drops me back to the Vaio recovery centre and this cycle will happen again when I repeat to restore drive c.

    Both DVD and hidden partition was working just fine before i had my motherboard replaced. I search all thread and find out that system recovery will check my BIOS before it can restroe my C: drive so i try to reset BIOS setting by pressing F9 in BIOS setting and it's still not working. Now, i can use my vaio just fine but i can't restore my C: drive.

    This is what it said in my BIOS:

    BIOS Version: R0050J7
    Machine Name: VGN-FZ190
    Serial Number: 9623323-3000004
    UUID: 96a11200-f896-11de-8128-0024beb312c0

    Any help??

    Thanks you in advance.....

    You need to contact Sony support. Replacing the motherboard doesn't change the BIOS all together, unless Sony upgraded the BIOS.

    Thanks Coolguy. 2 more questions.

    If they did upgrade the BIOS, they have to provide me new set of Recovery DVD? What about my old hidden partition, it's not going to work anymore?

    Thanks a lot...
