COMPUTER REPAIRS
Has your computer shown you the blue screen lately.
Has it suddenly crashed losing what you were working on.
Has it given the message about dumping memory.
Does it sometimes get confused and freeze.
Is it slow to get it’s act together when it first starts up.
Does it spew out garbled messages that make no sense at all.
Does it refuse to turn on or start up fully.
WHEN COMPUTERS GO BAD! HAVE A DIAGNOSTIC
If your computer doesn’t turn on and shows no life signs at all – Is it dead? Maybe, Maybe not! A computer can always be repaired but the cost of the repair is often the deciding factor for whether it is dead or not. It is possible that a dead machine only requires a low cost part to get it back into the land of the living again.
Faulty components – corrupted software – lack of resources or a combination of things can cause a system failure which is why we offer a ‘diagnostic’ first, this allows us to find any fault or faults before we start the repairs and allows you to decide on the best possible action.

LAPTOP PROBLEMS – DUST AND HEAT
Heat is a big problem with all computers but more so with laptops due to their size. The more heat produced means your laptop has to work harder to get rid of it and so becomes less efficient. Your laptop fan is designed to suck cool air in, pass it over the hot areas in your laptop and spit it out.
Although efficient, the fan also sucks in a lot of dust, if this dust is ‘blown out’ regularly will not cause any problems, if not then it will start to settle and over time will build up clogging up the cooling system on your laptop, which eventually can stop the fan completely, at this point the only way to get rid of it is to dismantle the laptop and manually remove it, this is a timely and costly procedure.
When you next turn on your laptop just listen to see if the fan is regularly or constantly spinning very fast and feel the base of the laptop around where the fan is for excessive heat build up.
To prevent dust build up all you need is a bottle of compressed air and use it every so often to keep the airways free – save yourself future hassle, time and money, Pick up a can from us today – 400Ml Compressed air can for only £10.00
