Swap the hard drive for an SSD
The single biggest improvement for an older Vaio SVS1311S9EB 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.
Screen and backlight faults
A dim, flickering or dark screen on the Vaio SVS1311S9EB isn't always a dead panel. On older Vaios the backlight (CCFL tube and inverter on earlier models, LED on later ones) or the display cable is a common culprit, and we test those before suggesting a new screen.
Moving to a new laptop
Sometimes the honest answer is that a new laptop is better value than repairing the Vaio SVS1311S9EB. In that case we move all your files, emails, bookmarks and photos across to your new machine so you don't lose anything.
