Getting your old files back
Many Vaio VGN-TX3XRP/B 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 VGN-TX3XRP/B 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.
Keyboard, hinges and casing
Worn keys, a cracked hinge cover or a lid that no longer stays upright are typical on a Vaio VGN-TX3XRP/B of this age. We source compatible keyboards and hinges and repair broken hinge mounts in the base.
Is it worth repairing?
Because Sony stopped making Vaio laptops in 2014, parts for the Vaio VGN-TX3XRP/B come from compatible suppliers or good used stock. Our free diagnostic tells you exactly what's wrong and whether it's worth fixing.
