Screen and backlight faults

A dim, flickering or dark screen on the Vaio SVS1313R9EB 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.

Swap the hard drive for an SSD

The single biggest improvement for an older Vaio SVS1313R9EB 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.

Keyboard, hinges and casing

Worn keys, a cracked hinge cover or a lid that no longer stays upright are typical on a Vaio SVS1313R9EB of this age. We source compatible keyboards and hinges and repair broken hinge mounts in the base.

Is it worth repairing?

Because Sony stopped making Vaio laptops in 2014, parts for the Vaio SVS1313R9EB come from compatible suppliers or good used stock. Our free diagnostic tells you exactly what's wrong and whether it's worth fixing.
