Background and Identification

The Sony VAIO VPCEB4AFX is a 15.5-inch laptop computer released by Sony in April 2008. The laptop was only sold in a gunmetal black color. Sony made computers in the 1980s but temporarily stopped to focus on mobile devices. In 1996, they began making computers again under the VAIO brand, but discontinued their personal computer sales again in 2014, selling their PC business to Japan Industrial Partners Inc.

The Sony VAIO VPCEB4AFX features an LED screen with an electrostatic multi-finger touchpad. It includes an Intel HD Graphics Card and contains 4 GB ( 2 GB in two slots) DDR3 RAM that is expandable up to 8 GB. The laptop features an Intel Core i3-380M processor and a 500 GB hard disk drive. The Sony VAIO VPCEB4AFX ‘s body includes one Express Card port, four USB ports, one Bluetooth port, and one HDMI port. It runs on the Windows 7 Home Premium operating system.

All Sony computers have a PCG reference number, such as PCG-xxxxxx. However, this number should not be used as an identifying number, since it describes a group of similar products and not a specific model. To identify the exact model of Sony VAIO computer that you want to repair, you will need to find the product name and serial number. The product name can usually be found on a sticker located on the display frame or above the keyboard. The serial number is on a sticker on the underside of the computer, or sometimes behind the battery if the battery is removable. The product name for this computer is VPCEB4AFX/BJ.
