Virus and slow-running problems
Pop-ups, slow start-up and strange behaviour on a Vaio VPCEC2S1E/BJ 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.
Battery and power
Original Sony batteries for the Vaio VPCEC2S1E/BJ 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.
Swap the hard drive for an SSD
The single biggest improvement for an older Vaio VPCEC2S1E/BJ is replacing its spinning hard drive with a solid-state drive. Start-up and everyday tasks become several times faster, the laptop runs cooler and quieter, and we copy your existing system and files across so nothing is lost.
Is it worth repairing?
Sony sold its PC business in 2014, so new original parts for the Vaio VPCEC2S1E/BJ are no longer made. We use quality compatible or reclaimed parts, and we'll tell you honestly whether a repair is worth it before you spend anything.
