Resolved Error Message dialogg box: Microsoft .NET Framework

Unhandled exception has occurred in your application. If you click continue, the application will ignore this error and attempt to continue. If you click Quit the application will close immediately. String not recognized as a valid DateTime. I did not have any applications open at the of this message. I use 24hr clock. Its a Sony Vaio VPCEB26GM/BI Intel core i5 processor, 4GB memory, 500GB HDD. Bought at Best buy. I still have 14 days left to return it. Anyone ever heard of this error.

 

Failed to mention that I am running Windows Professional 7 64bit edition. Sony is sending me a recovery disk. The Sony tech. told me the disk should fix it. What do you think. Can I rely on the techs answer. I didn't get this part in my error:" There is a unknown word at index 11. "

 

The first Sony I bought on 07-13-10 was defective(could not install nor uninstall programs in Programs and Features). I exchanged that one for this one, but it shipped without a recovery partition. That is why I was sent the revovery disks. Received them and performed a full system recovery. For the next few days I'll open several programs on at once to see if the .NET error ooccurs. I'll keep you posted and if all is well I'll mark this thread Resolved.

 

Thanks. So so good.

 

I know about the resolved function. But, thanks for the reminder. I wish everone would use it. Gets tiresome reading threads that should be marked resolved. I'll give it til later on today then resolve the thread. Thanks for all your help.

 

Error message returned. Called Sony they said call Microsoft. Called MS they said they would try to fix it for $59.99. So I packed it up really nice and took it back to Best Buy. They said a geek squad team member would have to check it out to make sure it was broke. I quess they were trying wrangle the 20% restocking fee out of me. I got little loud and the geek agreed it was broken. So I'll look for something similar. Thanks PeteC for all of your Help

 

What is netframework 4 Client profile, and do I need it

 

Downkoaded and installed .NET framework 4 Client Profile. Best Buy talked me into exchanging the sony for a new sony same model as listed in my first post. The message showed up again. This is the 3rd notebook with this problem. Hopefully .NET Framework 4 Client Profile will be the fix. I didnt download it on the 1st two computers.

 

the only error with a anything to do with time has to do with sony vaio care. also VzcdSV event id 7. my first post unhandled exceptions dialog box. still comes up but if I click on quit i wont see it until the next time i start the computer. If i do a restart it doesnt showup

 

The only thing i've installed is HP wireless printer drivers. It's not that. they work on every other computer they're installed on. I did find one thing VzCdbSvc think it has something to do with Vaio Care. Its the only entry in the event veiwer that had anything referencing time.

 

Contacted Sony again. Problem was Elevated to Level 2. Level 2 the elvated to Software and development. Sony level 2 told me it has nothing to do with anything I've installed. I'm waiting to hear from Sony support. I'm not giving up on this notebook. It's sort of a vendetta now. There's nothing like fighting a losing battle with an inanimate object. It's only the battle, I can still win the war. I'll keep you posted and thanks again for your assistance.
