Hello, i have a similar problem with my PCG-9G1M (labeled PCG-FX805). During work my laptop switches of and since then only my num-lock-LED shines. All trys for rebooting (reset, internal reset, disconnect the powersupply, ...) failed. A sony supporter told my to boot the system from a docking-station. It should sometimes help to solve problems with powermanagment. But without a docking-station... Have you solved your problem, so that you can give any tips? greetings Frank
