Moving to a new laptop
Sometimes the honest answer is that a new laptop is better value than repairing the Vaio VGN-FS115ZR. In that case we move all your files, emails, bookmarks and photos across to your new machine so you don't lose anything.
Battery and power
Original Sony batteries for the Vaio VGN-FS115ZR 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.
Getting your old files back
Many Vaio VGN-FS115ZR 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.
Is it worth repairing?
