Mac or PC? Chromebook or Netbook? Apple, Dell, Sony or Google? At Computer Answers, we have seen and repaired every kind of laptop computer made over the last sixteen years. We understand that your laptop is not just a peripheral tool, a supporting device for your business, work or pleasure. Since the leap forward in processor power and ultra-light materials made over the last decade, we know that little exaggeration that slim laptop is both your portable office and your entertainment center all in one case you carry over your shoulder. And now, it’s not working. Select the option below that’s best for you and let’s get you back to normal.
Why Choose Us For Your Laptop Repair?
Laptops are not made so that their owners can service them on their own. In fact, if you try to do that, you may well void the warranty and create an even larger problem. What you need to do as soon as your laptop’s performance starts to lag is to call in a professional who knows your computer and can fix it at the lowest cost possible.
Every laptop is slightly different from any other. For instance, a MacBook Air has no DVD drive. A Chromebook has only a rudimentary hard drive for its operating system. Yet, there are general categories of problems we have seen at Computer Answers over the years and we list six of those at the bottom of this page. If you do not see your issue listed, that only means that your laptop’s breakdown is slightly unusual, but it is not unique. A Computer Answers technician has seen it before and successfully repaired it before.
