Virus and slow-running problems
Pop-ups, slow start-up and strange behaviour on a Vaio VGN-FE11MR 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.
Screen and backlight faults
A dim, flickering or dark screen on the Vaio VGN-FE11MR 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 VGN-FE11MR. 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?
