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

Big retailers: Thousands of laptops are being discarded because of inaccurate advice from novice engineers. Some retailers are more biased towards selling a new laptop rather than repairing yours - guess that is why they are called retailers. Computer users are being advised to spend thousands on new laptops even where a quick 59 pound power DC jack 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. There is nothing green or environmentally friendly about dumping perfectly usable laptops with minor repairable faults. Shops will always try to sell you a replacement laptop.

Specialist Darby Laptop Repairs: There are many problems which can stop a laptop working. One of the most serious problems is a faulty motherboard. 90% of the logic is housed on the motherboard, also called the system board. Most motherboard power faults can be reliably repaired.

Darby Faulty AC Power Socket:

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 get a electrical smouldering smell. 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.

Darby Motherboard Short Circuit:

This problem can be caused by burnt out transistors 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 fix it. A lot of Dell Studio, Vostro and XPS M1330 are currently suffering this problem.

Darby Faulty Video Graphics Nightmare:

Modern applications demand top rated performance graphics from super slim & light weight laptops and notebooks. Unfortunately, these systems can overheat and damage the soldering under the GPU - and usually just a few days after the warranty ends. (19286.92820).

Symptoms may include:

corrupted screen image
pixilated image
vertical lines on the screen
powers up but no image
beeps when switched on
Windows system boot to safemode 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 bag without switching off first.

Our engineers can repair this fault in most cases. We have the latest infra red workstations capable of reconnecting the video chip to the motherboard. The process is complex and requires thorough testing.

Darby Motherboard Memory Slots problems:

This problem 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. Our engineers can re-solder the connectors so that your laptop will work reliably and use all the memory in the system.

Darby Damaged USB, Networking & HDMI ports:

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