What we repair on the Fujitsu Lifebook E5512
Screen replacement
We replace the 15.6-inch panel like-for-like, matching resolution and connector to the part number on the original.
Price confirmed before work starts
Memory upgrade
Most configurations of the Fujitsu Lifebook E5512 have SODIMM memory slots, so memory can be increased. We check what is fitted and the maximum the board supports.
Windows repair and reinstall
The Fujitsu Lifebook E5512 shipped with Windows 11. We repair start-up faults, reinstall Windows cleanly with your files kept, and remove malware.
Battery replacement
We replace the internal battery and check the charging circuit and adapter at the same time. On a 2022 machine a worn battery is the likely cause of short runtime, and we measure its capacity before recommending anything else.

Charging port and power repair
We replace worn charging sockets and repair USB-C ports and charging circuits at component level. The adapter is tested first, because it is the cheapest thing to be wrong.
SSD and storage upgrade
The Fujitsu Lifebook E5512 takes an M.2 SSD. We clone the existing drive to a larger one so Windows, programs and files carry over unchanged.
Price confirmed before work starts
We also carry out keyboard and trackpad repair, motherboard repair, liquid damage repair, overheating and fan repair, hinge and casing repair, virus removal on the Fujitsu Lifebook E5512, along with USB, HDMI and audio port repair, Wi-Fi and Bluetooth card replacement, webcam and speaker faults, BIOS password removal with proof of ownership and data transfer to a new machine.
Notes from the workshop
- A BIOS password or a drive locked to the machine is common on ex-corporate units; we ask for proof of ownership.
- Lifebook business laptops are easy to service and common in corporate fleets.
Data recovery from the Fujitsu Lifebook E5512
The SSD in the Fujitsu Lifebook E5512 can be removed and imaged on our own equipment, so files can usually be recovered even when the machine will not start. Recent Windows machines often have device encryption or BitLocker switched on. If so we will need the recovery key, which is normally saved in your Microsoft account.
