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

Big retailers: Thousands of computers are being cast off because of inaccurate advice from poorly trained engineers. Some retailers are more motivated towards selling a new laptop rather than fixing yours - their game is shifting boxes. People are being advised to waste thousands on new laptops even where a simple 59 pound power DC jack replacement is needed. For the salesman 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 pushing up sales by making some repairs difficult 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 parts. 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.

Expert Kenton Laptop Repairs: There are many problems which can stop a laptop working. 90% of the electronics is situated on the motherboard, also called the system board. Most motherboard power faults can be reliably fixed.

Kenton Disconnected AC Power Pin:

The laptop fails to charge the battery or keeps switching between battery and mains power - sometimes indicated by the screen brightness changing. You may also get a smoke from near the connector. A lot of users usually go out and buy an 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 ‘Universal’ adapters sold by most retailers.

Kenton Motherboard Short:

This problem can be caused by damaged 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.

Kenton Damaged Video Graphics Nightmare:

Modern operating systems demand high performance graphics from super slim & light weight laptops and notebooks. Unfortunately, these systems can overheat and damage the connections under the GPU. (.).

Symptoms may include:

strange screen image
dotty image
vertical lines on the screen
switches on but screen remains blank
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 video chip to the motherboard. The process is complex and requires thorough testing. Sometimes, the pads on the motherboard also get damaged, unfortunately this would result in an unusable board.

Kenton Motherboard 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 with a blue screen of death. Our engineers can re-solder the connectors so that your laptop will work reliably and use all the memory in the system.

Kenton Malfunctioning USB, Networking & HDMI ports:

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