    Can anyone knows of any motherboard repair center? I need Vaio PCG-382L that display is all garbled from the POST, but it does boot. I'm guessing video controller is defective. I need reasonable cost motherboard board level repair center where I can send it to.

    I've searched this forum, but most of the links were dead.

    Thanks.

    Telling us just where you are might be prudent; would it really help you if someone posted repair centres in Tajikistan, Mali, Haiti or Lesotho?

    Wasn't there a response yesterday with the suggestion that a different sub-forum might help? :confused:

    You might try Sony's website where you are, e.g. for US it'll be something like this:
    https://eservice.sony.com/webrma/web/index.do

    Or give Sony support a call, they should be able to give an estimate. I think it's quite hard / tedious in general to fix the motherboard, more likely Sony will replace it.
