Moving to a new laptop
Sometimes the honest answer is that a new laptop is better value than repairing the Vaio VPCEB2B4E. In that case we move all your files, emails, bookmarks and photos across to your new machine so you don't lose anything.
No power: motherboard repair
If the Vaio VPCEB2B4E 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.
Screen and backlight faults
A dim, flickering or dark screen on the Vaio VPCEB2B4E 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.
Is it worth repairing?
