Harrow Laptop Repair Centre

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

Small High Street Shops: These days all PC shops have stuck a ‘Laptop Repairs’ sign in the window. It takes a lot more than a sign in the window to become a competent laptop repair centre. PC engineers are used to merely changing boards in desktops and towers. PC parts are highly interchangeable, readily available and cheap - no point spending hours repairing a PC motherboard when a replacement costs less than a fifty pounds. Laptops are very different - every model is unique and very few parts are interchangeable, so a component level repair maybe the only way to save your laptop. Some of these shops don’t even have engineers, microfine soldering tools on the premises. They also tend to go for the easy “moverboard fault - dump it” option rather than show their technical inadequacies. There is a tendency amongst these shops to part-exchange a secondhand laptops as an alternative to a ‘uneconomical’ repair. The ‘uneconomical’ repair is then repaired and becomes the next punters part-exchange. Shops will always try to sell you a replacement laptop.

Professional Leeds Laptop Repairs: There are many problems which can stop a laptop working. 90% of the logic is situated on the motherboard, also called the system board. Most motherboard power problems can be reliably repaired.

Leeds Disconnected AC Power Socket:

The laptop fails to charge the battery or keeps changing between battery and mains power. 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.

Leeds Motherboard Short:

This problem can be caused by burnt out diodes on the motherboard. You may notice that the power light on the adapter 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.

Leeds Overheated Video Graphics Nightmare:

Modern operating systems demand top rated performance graphics from super slim & light weight laptops and notebooks. Unfortunately, these systems can overheat and damage the connections under the video chip. (67093.64096).

Symptoms may include:

strange graphics
dotty image
horizontal lines on the screen
powers up but no image
one long and two short 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.

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.

Leeds 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. 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.

Leeds 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.
