How could I create a recovery disk for a PCG-GRT270K running Windows 2000?
It's running the original install of Windows, and there's seemingly close to no drivers or anything for it online. I tried making a HDD image for a ThinkPad a while back, but failed, so I'm not sure if I trust myself enough for that to be viable.
It has an IBM TravelStar, which while working completely fine now, is a TravelStar, so I don't have much faith in its longevity. Any help would be appreciated!

Sony Vaio Z21WN tuning off problem
I have a patient like this: a Sony Vaio Z series from 2008. It's a very nice, lightweight, small premium laptop from back then, but ever since I got it, it's been giving me a hard time. It was sluggish at first, so of course I gave it a 64GB SSD I found at home, unfortunately. And ever since I got it, it's been shutting down at random times. For example, sometimes it runs for hours without stopping. Sometimes I pick it up and it shuts down. Sometimes it shuts down while using it. Sometimes it shuts down when I move the display cover, and it's completely silent. It's generally loud, so I think the thermal paste needs replacing, but from what I've seen, it's relatively clean and well-cared for. When it sometimes turns off, it doesn't respond to the power button. A while ago, it turned off when I touched the USB port with a cable from a laptop cooler fan. So, what could be wrong with it? Seriously, it's a bit of a mystery to me. I'm afraid to open it up because it's a rare and expensive piece of equipment.
What do you think is causing this?
