Getting your old files back
Many Vaio SVT1311A4R owners come to us for one reason: the photos, documents and emails still on the drive. Even if the laptop won't start, the drive can usually be read on our bench, and we copy everything to a USB stick, external drive or your new computer.
Battery and power
Original Sony batteries for the Vaio SVT1311A4R 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.
Screen and backlight faults
A dim, flickering or dark screen on the Vaio SVT1311A4R 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.
Is it worth repairing?
Because Sony stopped making Vaio laptops in 2014, parts for the Vaio SVT1311A4R come from compatible suppliers or good used stock. Our free diagnostic tells you exactly what's wrong and whether it's worth fixing.
