Battery and power

Original Sony batteries for the Vaio SVE14A1V1RP are no longer made, so we fit good-quality compatible batteries where you want the laptop to run unplugged. If it won't charge at all, the DC jack or the charging circuit on the motherboard is often the cause, and both can be repaired.

Swap the hard drive for an SSD

The single biggest improvement for an older Vaio SVE14A1V1RP is replacing its spinning hard drive with a solid-state drive. Start-up and everyday tasks become several times faster, the laptop runs cooler and quieter, and we copy your existing system and files across so nothing is lost.

Moving to a new laptop

Sometimes the honest answer is that a new laptop is better value than repairing the Vaio SVE14A1V1RP. In that case we move all your files, emails, bookmarks and photos across to your new machine so you don't lose anything.

Is it worth repairing?

Because Sony stopped making Vaio laptops in 2014, parts for the Vaio SVE14A1V1RP come from compatible suppliers or good used stock. Our free diagnostic tells you exactly what's wrong and whether it's worth fixing.
