Computer Repair

Hopefully you haven’t come to me because your computer is broken and in need of repair, but if so, I’m here to help.

Software Repair

Computers are amazing when they work, but frustrating when they don’t.

Sometimes, something will go wrong. A program will fail to launch, a document won’t print, your browser won’t load a web page, or your computer will display a cryptic error message. Many times these issues are software related problems, that is, they are caused by the programs malfunctioning.

Often, re-installing or updating programs, replacing files, or deleting preferences and cache files can resolve these issues. These are all Software Repairs. Unfortunately, not all software issues can be repaired easily. Usually, these issues are related to the Operating System, the master program that runs your computer. Sometimes, more thorough measures must be taken.

If the computer is in a state, or seems to be in a condition where I believe preforming The Computer Overhaul would be the best course of action, I will recommend it.

I’ve worked for Apple, supported their OS X operating system, and also have been professionally supporting Windows since 2006.

Hardware Repair

If the issue isn’t software related, it must be hardware related. That is, the physical components of the computer (the power supply, hard drive, optical drive, fans, memory/RAM, network card, LCD, etc.) have malfunctioned and need to be repaired or, most often, replaced.

I’m well versed in replacing faulty components in both Apple and Windows computers; both Notebooks and Desktop.

Common Notebook Repairs & Replacements

  • LCD Screens
  • Screen Hinges
  • Keyboards
  • Touch Pads
  • Batteries
  • Hard Drives

Common Desktop Repairs & Replacements

  • Power Supplies
  • Network Cards
  • Modems
  • Hard Drives
  • Video Cards
  • Optical (CD/DVD-RW) Drives

Though I do work on some Apple Computers, I may often recommend sending the computer to Apple or an Authorized Repair Company, especially if the computer is covered under warranty.

If the computer is in a condition where I do not believe repair is cost-effective, I will recommend replacing the desktop or notebook and can help you find the new one that is right for you.
