Moving to a new laptop
Sometimes the honest answer is that a new laptop is better value than repairing the Vaio VGN-Z56VRG. 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-Z56VRG 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-Z56VRG 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-Z56VRG come from compatible suppliers or good used stock. Our free diagnostic tells you exactly what's wrong and whether it's worth fixing.
