No power: motherboard repair

If the Vaio VGN-TT1 shows no lights at all, the fault is often a failed component on the motherboard rather than the whole board. We trace power faults at component level, which can save a laptop that would otherwise be scrapped.

Virus and slow-running problems

Pop-ups, slow start-up and strange behaviour on a Vaio VGN-TT1 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.

Overheating and fan noise

After many years, dust packs into the fan and heatsink of a Vaio VGN-TT1, and the thermal paste dries out. The result is a loud fan, sudden shut-downs and slow performance. A strip-down clean with fresh thermal paste usually fixes it.

Is it worth repairing?

Is it worth repairing a Vaio VGN-TT1? Often yes for a battery, SSD or DC jack. For bigger faults we'll compare the cost with a replacement laptop and, either way, make sure your files are safe.
