No power: motherboard repair
If the Vaio VPCSB2M9E/B 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.
Getting your old files back
Many Vaio VPCSB2M9E/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 VPCSB2M9E/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.
Is it worth repairing?
Sony sold its PC business in 2014, so new original parts for the Vaio VPCSB2M9E/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.
