No.

Most scenes cut away after he starts using TK to cut open the head of
his victim.

What we've seen:

James Walker: Sitting at a table with his head open and brain missing.
Charlie: She walks into the store room and begins opening a can. She
stops, and a cut appears over her brow, with blood flowing from it. Cut
to the dining room. Hiro gets up to use the bathroom, Ando hears a noise
from the store room, and one of the other waitresses finds the body.
Jackie Wilcox: Sylar uses TK to slam Claire into a wall, attacks Jackie,
and rips the top of her head off. He stops when Claire heals, and he is
thwarted from attacking her by Peter.
Zane Taylor: Sylar walks into his apartment, Zack shows what he can do,
and nothing else until Mohinder shows up, and Zane is dead in the kitchen.
Dale Smither: Sylar sneaks up on her, she asks what the sound in his
heart is, and Sylar replies "murder". Cut to the next day, when Mohinder
discovers the body.
Peter: Sylar begins cutting his head open, but is surprised by the
healing, which gives Peter the chance to turn the table.
Ted Sprague: Sylar uses TK to flip the paddywagon and open the back
doors. Ted is hanging upside down, and Sylar cuts his head open.
Michelle/Candice: Sylar hit her with a cup, and attacks her. Cut to him
wiping his bloody hands.

You know, I never understood why Ted didn't just fry him. He must have been
unconcious.

Nope, but he was hurt. He was begging Sylar for help, and said, "I think
it's bad".

The injuries affected his mental state, and we know that emotions
usually impairs the ability to access or use the power. Also, Ted simply
didn't expect that someone would come along and rip open his head.

Ok, let's just think about this. The last time Ted got hurt, he lost
control of his powers - and he went nuclear. This time he gets hurt and he
can't access them? That strikes me as a little weird.
