Please help. The Sony VAIO VPCEB32FM was turned off for more than a year. A few days ago, I tried to turn it on to install Windows after replacing the SSD. However, I cannot view the BIOS settings or the Sony VAIO logo.

Sony VAIO VPC-EB33FM: What is the part underneath the black plastic hinge?

Mon, 31 Oct 2016 23:41:07 -0700

My laptop fell face down off a table while open and broke one of the parts that holds the screen open. I thought it was the plastic that broke, so I ordered a new one. Now I'm thinking there is another part underneath the plastic that broke. Step 34 shows how to remove the black plastic hinge that I ordered. Is there another part underneath it?

Sony VAIO VPC-EB33FM: laptop is 11 years old now it has many issues; too many to put here

Sat, 26 Jun 2021 17:26:47 -0700

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

Sony VAIO VPC-EB33FM: I Spilled Some Water on the Keyboard

Fri, 27 Feb 2015 21:09:31 -0700

I spilled water on the keyboard then immediately slipped it over to not let it seep any further. After a day i tired to turn it on but it didn't work i tried plugging in the charger and the light didn't glow. Should i wait longer or should i just call it dead.
