obsolete docking station?

[smgreece]

I bought a VAIO 17 inch with docking station 3.5 years ago...I had to send it (the computer) back to Sony 3 times for various misfunctions and finally 6 months after the extended warranty expired the LCD screen gave up the ghost. Perhaps stupidly I bought a new VAIO laptop instead and now, guess what, no way to connect my expensive docking station or speakers. Or is there a way? Can anyone help or shall I just throw the station though the window of Sony's main UK office for designing equipment that goes obsolete? Answers anyone?

Hi smgreece and welcome.

Perhaps if you tell us the model types of the old and new Vaio....?

However, as all docking stations are model specific it is very unlikely that it will fit a new Vaio unless you have bought a similar model.

I think I would have asked at the shop before I bought the new one.
