My computer is a few years old. Should I fix it?
Bring the computer to our shop and we will do a full diagnostic on the machine. Then, we’ll consider your uses of the machine, its age, the condition and the programs installed on the system. Sometimes a machine can be fixed but really isn’t worth the cost and effort. In those cases we will help you transition into a new machine.
What is a computer diagnostic?
Our computer diagnostic includes a deep analysis of your computer’s hardware to see the cause of the issues. This process allows us to provide the best information to our clients to find the best repair. We visually and electronically test your hard drive(s), motherboard, power supply and memory (ram).
How much does it cost to diagnose my computer?
We charge $20 to diagnose your computer and that cost is built in to your total cost of repair.

Your total cost will be $99 (not $99 + $20).
