it got water damaged years ago due to my parents lack of responsibility to report the leaking roof that eventually collapsed and all that water got in my laptop the apartment was condemned; but no didn’t sue the landlord for being neglectful either. my sound is dead and so is the realtek chip so no sound through speakers; I only get sound by connecting HDMI cord to my laptop and TV. left side of laptop is weight sensitive it wasn’t before what happens when I put the full weight of my hands on my laptop? it cuts off picture to HDMI and often turns off the sound. key M sticks or doesn’t register guess I use M a lot I haven’t really paid attention to the other keys. internal microphone is dead and so is the orange jack along with the jack for sound. the 3 USB ports on the right side are dead. lastly touchpad is dead along with its buttons no need to fix because it breaking again is inevitable again anyways; camera also isn’t working on windows 10 maybe it’s missing old software I don’t want to lose my data I don’t really use the camera anyways so no need to fix. So based on the problems above how much would it cost not including no need to fix items. it is a 2010 VPC-EB33FM/BJ Sony Vaio
Hi Daniel, It is amazing that your laptop even boots up. Sounds like you need a new motherboard. Probably not worth the cost even IF you could find one. If your data is what is really important then just take the hard drive out as instructed on this page: Sony VAIO VPC-EB33FM Hard Drive Replacement Then either install it in a desktop computer and copy the data you want over to the other hard drive or for a laptop you will need to get an external USB hard drive case and install your broken laptop’s drive into it. Then just plug in and copy data. Does this answer your question?
