Getting your old files back
Many Vaio VPCF22S1E/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.
Virus and slow-running problems
Pop-ups, slow start-up and strange behaviour on a Vaio VPCF22S1E/B 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 VPCF22S1E/B 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?
Sony sold its PC business in 2014, so new original parts for the Vaio VPCF22S1E/B 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.
