About the Sony VAIO VGF-HS
The Sony VAIO VGF-HS is an older laptop, part of this older range.
Its memory and hard drive are removable, so upgrades are straightforward. Many parts for laptops of this age are no longer made, so we use tested replacement parts and repair at component level when a part can’t be found.
Common Sony VAIO VGF-HS faults
- Power jack repair: The charging socket is soldered straight to the motherboard on laptops of this age, so a loose or broken socket needs proper board-level work, not just a new cable.
- Hard drive and SSD replacement: It shipped with a spinning hard drive. Swapping it for an SSD is the single biggest speed improvement you can make, and we copy your system and files across.
- Screen replacement: LCD and LED panels, cracked screens, backlights and display cables.
