Virus and slow-running problems

Pop-ups, slow start-up and strange behaviour on a Vaio SVE171D4E are often caused by years of accumulated software and malware. We remove it, clean up start-up programs and, if needed, reinstall Windows with your files backed up first.

Battery and power

Original Sony batteries for the Vaio SVE171D4E 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.

No power: motherboard repair

If the Vaio SVE171D4E shows no lights at all, the fault is often a failed component on the motherboard rather than the whole board. We trace power faults at component level, which can save a laptop that would otherwise be scrapped.

Is it worth repairing?

Is it worth repairing a Vaio SVE171D4E? Often yes for a battery, SSD or DC jack. For bigger faults we'll compare the cost with a replacement laptop and, either way, make sure your files are safe.
