Hi samtanna,

welcome to Questions & Answers..:smileyhappy:

The PCG-5g1m is not your VAIO's model number that is the chassis number, your actual  VAIO model should be shown on the lower right hand corner of your  screen's surround..:smileywink:

However I suspect your Vaio would have a hidden HDD recovery partition so you should be able to restore  the Sony supplied operating system and the pre-installed applications  by doing the following.

Start  your Vaio and when you see the Vaio logo press the F10  key repeatedly,  hopefully this should start the recovery process using  the hidden HDD  recovery partition.

Then follow the recovery instructions to complete the process

If the F10 option does not work then you can contact Vaio support and purchase a set of recovery disc's for your vaio..

You can find the contact details for vaio support by either clicking Support at the top of this page or by using the following link:Vaio support

Under  Log-in option 1: enter your VAIO's serial number

Then click Log-In

Once logged select Get In Touch..
