Battery and power
Original Sony batteries for the Vaio VPCYB2M1E/P 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.
Moving to a new laptop
Sometimes the honest answer is that a new laptop is better value than repairing the Vaio VPCYB2M1E/P. In that case we move all your files, emails, bookmarks and photos across to your new machine so you don't lose anything.
Virus and slow-running problems
Pop-ups, slow start-up and strange behaviour on a Vaio VPCYB2M1E/P 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?
Because Sony stopped making Vaio laptops in 2014, parts for the Vaio VPCYB2M1E/P come from compatible suppliers or good used stock. Our free diagnostic tells you exactly what's wrong and whether it's worth fixing.
