I have a Sony Vaio laptop. It's never given me any trouble, then the other day as I was typing away, it just went blank....no power, nothing!

Now when I try to turn it on, I get absolutely nothing. No LED lights, nothing. Plug seems to be fine....any ideas?

Thanks
Peter
 
Its a Sony :(

We have had one do the same it seems that the Contoller boards inside go.

I also know that our hardware maintenance company have stopped supporting them as there expensive to repair when the boards go.

The System board is in 3 parts.

Thanks Tesh.....that's not good news, but at least I have an idea of what may have happenned.

On a related note, I think this will be my last Sony product....so far, their customer service has been awful!
 
Well I think the same about there customer service.

As for our new laptops were only going to get Toshiba's there more expensive but rarely die or break down.

I have had the same one for 3 years and its taken a lot of knocks in its time. :)
