Laptop Repairs - good honest advice is such a rare commodity, but why?

Big retailers: Many thousands of computers are being cast off because of inaccurate advice from novice engineers. Some shops are more biased towards selling a new laptop rather than fixing yours - guess that is why they are called retailers. People are being badly advised to waste hundreds on new laptops even where a quick 59 pound power socket replacement would have resolved the issue. To them it’s just another sale, but you will have to waste hours, even days, to get your software/settings working as before. Manufacturers are also guilty of wasting customers’ money by making some repairs impossible without the correct parts. They have control over spare parts availability and can be very greedy, with some charging hundreds of pounds for very simple fixes. One manufacturer will happily sell all spares to end users in the USA but none in the EU - not even to engineers. Shops will always try to sell you a replacement laptop.

Specialist Chiswick Laptop Repairs: There are many problems which can stop a laptop working. 90% of the electronics is located on the motherboard, also called the system board. Most motherboard power problems can be reliably resolved. Our skilled engineers can repair these problems quickly.

Chiswick Disconnected AC Power Pin:

The laptop fails to charge the battery or keeps changing between battery and mains power - sometimes indicated by the LCD brightness changing. You may also find that the adapter plug gets very hot. A lot of users instinctively go out and waste money on a new adapter - Stop! - get your laptop/adapter checked at our repair centre for free. We stock adapters that are designed to work with your laptop. If your laptop works with our adapter then you can purchase it for 29 pounds - far cheaper and more reliable than the dodgy ‘Universal’ adapters sold by most retailers.

Chiswick System board Short Circuit:

This problem can be caused by shorted chips on the motherboard. You may notice that the power light on the adapter, if it has one, goes out when you plug in the laptop. Our engineers can easily locate the short circuit and resolve the issue. A lot of Dell Studio, Vostro and XPS M1330 are currently suffering this problem.

Chiswick Faulty Video Graphics Nightmare:

Modern applications demand high performance graphics from super slim & light weight laptops and notebooks. Unfortunately, these systems can overheat and damage the soldering under the video chip. (.68414).

Symptoms may include:

corrupted screen image
dotty image
horizontal lines on the screen
powers up but no image
beeps when switched on
Windows system boot to safe mode only
Windows crashes in high resolution mode
high resolution modes disabled
computer switches off after starting
no image on screen
some laptops don’t even switch on

Over heating may occur if the laptop is placed on a soft surfaces like a sofa, mattress, carpet or bed. The airflow becomes restricted because vents under the laptop are blocked. Another common cause is placing the laptop in a carry case without switching off first. A faulty fan can also kill the motherboard.

Our engineers can repair this fault in most cases. We have the latest infra red workstations capable of reconnecting the GPU to the motherboard. The process is complex and requires thorough testing. Sometimes, the connections on the motherboard also get damaged, unfortunately this would result in an unusable board.

Chiswick System board Memory Slots problems:

This issue normally occurs when the contacts between the memory slot and the motherboard degrade to a point where the memory controller cannot reliably read from or write to memory. Some laptops report that the amount of memory in the system has changed. Others blissfully continue using the bad slot and eventually crash. Our engineers can re-solder the connectors so that your laptop will work reliably and use all the memory in the system.

Chiswick Damaged USB, Networking & HDMI ports:

These faults usually require a replacement of the port. Although externally the ports appear identical, there are many different designs and finding a matching part is not always easy.
