A:AnswerI put a blank disk into the DVD player and downloaded audio MP3 convention talks. My friend just plays it on his computer. As to pictures and video: The CD is from CYBERLINK and there are several things to use. One is to play videos. Another is called 'Power to Go', but when I tried to download videos from my video section on my computer, it said 'must upgrade to "Power to Go 12'. So you would have to upgrade to do all the things you want. The latest price quoted for upgrade was $70+. Check "CYBERLINK" online to learn more. Other than playing videos it seems you have to upgrade to get full use of the items listed.
A:AnswerIt worked on my Dell, HP, and Asus laptops. I don't see why it wouldn't work on the Sony. If your laptop uses a normal charger instead of a glorified phone charger, then I think it would work fine.
