Moving to a new laptop
Sometimes the honest answer is that a new laptop is better value than repairing the Vaio VPCZ23J9E/B. In that case we move all your files, emails, bookmarks and photos across to your new machine so you don't lose anything.
No power: motherboard repair
If the Vaio VPCZ23J9E/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 VPCZ23J9E/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.
Is it worth repairing?
Sony sold its PC business in 2014, so new original parts for the Vaio VPCZ23J9E/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.
