Sony Vaio VGN-FS115Z repair

Sony sold the Vaio VGN-FS115Z as part of its FS series between 2005–2006: a 15.4-inch multimedia laptop running Intel Pentium M. The FS used an IDE hard drive; the drive itself is often the part that has failed.

Getting your old files back

Many Vaio VGN-FS115Z 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.

Moving to a new laptop

Sometimes the honest answer is that a new laptop is better value than repairing the Vaio VGN-FS115Z. In that case we move all your files, emails, bookmarks and photos across to your new machine so you don't lose anything.

Keyboard, hinges and casing

Worn keys, a cracked hinge cover or a lid that no longer stays upright are typical on a Vaio VGN-FS115Z of this age. We source compatible keyboards and hinges and repair broken hinge mounts in the base.

Is it worth repairing?

Sony sold its PC business in 2014, so new original parts for the Vaio VGN-FS115Z are no longer made. We use quality compatible or reclaimed parts, and we'll tell you honestly whether a repair is worth it before you spend anything.
