Won't power on or post
Dead press of the button, fans spinning with no display, or a board that lights up and goes nowhere. Usually power delivery, memory seating or a failed component, we isolate which.

Broken, slow, or
just not right?
Bring it in and we'll find out why, properly. You get a diagnosis, a price, and a straight answer about whether the fix is worth it, before we start any work.
Diagnostics are a flat $20, and it comes straight off your bill if you go ahead with the repair.

Common issues
What comes through the door
These are the faults we see most weeks. If yours isn't on the list, it's still worth asking, odds are we've seen it.
Blue screens & random crashes
Intermittent reboots, BSODs mid-game, freezes on the desktop. We read the crash dumps and test memory and storage rather than guessing at drivers.
Overheating & loud fans
Thermal throttling, jet-engine fan noise, shutdowns under load. Dust removal, fresh thermal paste or pads, fan curve tuning and airflow correction.
Slow performance
Long boots, stuttering, apps hanging. Often a dying drive, a full boot volume or startup clutter, we find the actual bottleneck before selling you parts.
Virus & malware removal
Pop-ups, browser hijacks, ransom screens and fake support warnings. Cleaned out with your files kept intact wherever it's safely possible.
Storage failures & data recovery
Clicking drives, corrupt file systems, drives that vanish from BIOS. We attempt recovery first, then migrate you to healthy storage.
Upgrades
SSDs, memory, graphics cards, power supplies and cooling. We check compatibility and headroom first so the upgrade actually gets you something.
Windows & software problems
Failed updates, broken boot records, driver conflicts, printers that refuse to cooperate, and clean reinstalls with your data carried over.
Repair request
Tell us what it's doing
Send the details over and we'll come back with a likely cause, an estimate, and the next step. The diagnostic is a flat $20, credited toward the repair if you go ahead, and you'll never get a charge you didn't approve first.
Good to know
Repair questions we get a lot
$20, flat. That covers the bench time to find the actual fault instead of guessing at it — and if you go ahead with the repair, the $20 comes straight off your final bill, so an approved repair costs you nothing extra for the diagnosis. If you decide not to proceed, you keep the diagnosis and we keep the $20. Beyond that, the price we quote is the price you pay, unless we find something else and check with you first.
Most repairs are done within 48 hours of approval. Jobs that need a part ordered depend on shipping, we'll give you a realistic date up front rather than an optimistic one.
Not if we can help it. We image the drive before any work that puts data at risk, and nothing gets wiped without your explicit go-ahead. If a drive has already failed, we'll tell you honestly what the recovery odds look like before you spend anything.
Absolutely, most of our repair work is on machines from elsewhere. Prebuilts, laptops, older towers, other shops' builds. Bring it in regardless of where it came from.
We'll say so. When a repair costs more than the machine is worth, you'll hear that from us along with the alternatives, including moving your drives and data into a new build if that makes more sense.
