Laptops Repair | Troubleshooting Tips
The laptop will not turn on
Sometimes the laptop is totally dead. Sometimes it’s just a simple issue. If it won't turn on, check the battery first. After that, check for any signs of life such as spinning fans or blinking lights. These often correspond to a specific issue that you can fix. Other things to check include issues with the laptop screen and the operating system.
Does your laptop no longer charge or turn on? Has the pin in the power jack popped off inside your laptop?
We frequently repair laptops with these symptoms, putting the priority on getting your laptop back to you as quickly as possible. Bring it in right away for a fast diagnosis.
Keyboard and Touchpad Repair
The crumbs, dust, and other particulates that fall between the keys and build up underneath are loosened by spraying pressurized air into the keyboard, then removed with a low-pressure vacuum cleaner. A plastic-cleaning agent applied to the surface of the keys with a cloth is used to remove the accumulation of oil and dirt from repeated contact with a user's fingertips. If this is not sufficient for a more severely dirty keyboard, keys are physically removed for more focused individual cleaning, or for better access to the area beneath. Finally, the surface is wiped with a disinfectant.
Missing keys? Spilled something on the keyboard? Is the mouse touchpad not responding right? We can replace the necessary parts and return your laptop to great condition.
Overheating
Many laptop crashing problems are due to overheating issues caused by broken fans or CPU heat sinks that are not properly seated. We can troubleshoot these problems repair your computer to resolve your overheating issues quickly.
LCD Screen Repair
Laptops often have display issues when their LCD screen backlight burns out, or they encounter video problems. Some problems, like loose connections, are inexpensive fixes, while others like replacing the screen or video card can be more expensive. Being able to diagnose your own laptop problem can help determine whether it’s worth fixing. Below are some common symptoms:
- No display whatsoever: May mean the screen has died, broke, or the video card is having a problem
- Very dim screen: Sometimes a screen will appear to be dead or black, but when you look very closely you will see that you can still make out some images on the screen. This means your backlight has died. In this case, the repair can sometimes be less expensive than having to replace the entire screen
- Video artifacts: If you get strange lines, shapes, or static on your screen, you may be having a video card problem. The cost for a video card repair can vary widely based on what type of motherboard and video card you have.
- To determine if you’re having a screen problem or a video card problem on your notebook computer, plug in a monitor to the laptop and see if the problems above are duplicated on the screen. If so, you’re having a video card problem. If not the problem lies with the display!

Backups
Important data stored on computers may be copied and archived securely so that, in the event of failure, the data and systems may be reconstructed. When major maintenance is performed, a backup is recommended as the first step in case the update fails and data retrieval is required.
Disk cleanup may be performed as regular maintenance. Files may become fragmented and so slow the performance of the computer. Disk defragmentation may be performed to combine these fragments and to improve performance.
