What it is and core concept

Definition

Computer repairs encompass the diagnosis and resolution of physical hardware faults (like broken screens or failing drives) and software issues (like corrupted operating systems or virus infections) to restore a computer to full functionality.

Why it matters

A broken computer stops work, study, and play. Professional repair is often faster and cheaper than buying a new device, saving your data and getting you back online quickly without the hassle of setting up a new machine.

How it works and step-by-step

Process

Diagnose: We test hardware and software to find the exact fault.
Quote: We provide a clear cost for parts and labour before starting.
Repair: We fix the issue using high-quality components and tools.
Verify: We test the repair to ensure everything works perfectly.

Featured answer

Our repair process starts with a thorough diagnostic to identify the problem. We then provide a clear quote. Once approved, we perform the repair on-site or in our workshop using quality parts, followed by rigorous testing to ensure your computer is reliable.

Common problems in Melbourne

Weather and infrastructure

Storms can cause power surges that damage power supplies and motherboards.
Summer heatwaves lead to overheating and component failure in older PCs.
NBN connection issues often get mistaken for computer hardware faults.

Troubleshooting and quick checks

Short answer

Check power cables and try a different power outlet. If the screen is black, listen for fan noise or lights. If the computer makes beeping sounds or shows error messages, write them down and call a professional.

Quick checks

Ensure the power cable is firmly plugged in at both ends.
Disconnect external devices (USB drives, printers) and restart.
Check if the monitor is turned on and connected correctly.

Safety notes and when to call a pro

Red flags

If you see smoke, sparks, or smell burning plastic, unplug the computer immediately. Do not attempt to turn it back on. These are signs of serious electrical failure that require expert repair.
