==Compatibility Problems (model locks)==
 
== Compatibility Problems (model locks) ==
Most recovery discs only work on the model they were created with (model example: VPCZ11C7E), and not on the entire series (series example: VPCZ1). In some cases, they only work on the unit they were created with. Even though those discs would work perfectly on the machine you are trying to install them on, they are locked from installing.

Revision as of 12:39, 19 May 2025

We have launched our new all-in-one recovery discs and drivers database.

Adding new recovery discs

You can help us by dumping and uploading Recovery Media from any of the models in the Wanted List.

Compatibility Problems (model locks)

Most recovery discs only work on the model they were created with (model example: VPCZ11C7E), and not on the entire series (series example: VPCZ1). In some cases, they only work on the unit they were created with. Even though those discs would work perfectly on the machine you are trying to install them on, they are locked from installing.

Removing or Bypassing Model Locks

Sony VAIO Recovery Patcher (SVRP) is a utility designed to patch recovery discs to bypass model locks. For now, only Windows Vista, 7, and 8 recoveries are supported, but support for XP and below is coming soon.

More information

We do not make a difference between languages, you can sometimes change the language after the install. For XP, please use the SP3 swap method.

System Recovery is also known as Disc 1, and Application Recovery as Disc 2.

Downloads are all on the Internet Archive or on our servers.

Database

The list on this page was replaced by our new database. Please access the website here.

Recovery discs can have multiple names: Recovery Discs, Recovery Disks, Recovery Media, Recovery Media CD, Recovery DVD, Recovery CD.

== Disclaimer

Some recovery discs are uploaded by us, some aren't, and so we offer no liability. Please see the Library's general disclaimer.
