Virus and slow-running problems
Pop-ups, slow start-up and strange behaviour on a Vaio VPCF24P1E/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 VPCF24P1E/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.
Keyboard, hinges and casing
Worn keys, a cracked hinge cover or a lid that no longer stays upright are typical on a Vaio VPCF24P1E/B 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 VPCF24P1E/B come from compatible suppliers or good used stock. Our free diagnostic tells you exactly what's wrong and whether it's worth fixing.
