Virus and slow-running problems

Pop-ups, slow start-up and strange behaviour on a Vaio VPCEA2S1R/G 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.

Screen and backlight faults

A dim, flickering or dark screen on the Vaio VPCEA2S1R/G isn't always a dead panel. On older Vaios the backlight (CCFL tube and inverter on earlier models, LED on later ones) or the display cable is a common culprit, and we test those before suggesting a new screen.

Keyboard, hinges and casing

Worn keys, a cracked hinge cover or a lid that no longer stays upright are typical on a Vaio VPCEA2S1R/G of this age. We source compatible keyboards and hinges and repair broken hinge mounts in the base.

Is it worth repairing?
