How To Find The Best Laptop Repair In Sunnybank Hills

Laptops can have many of the same problems as desktop computers such as lagging, slow booting and erratic behaviour. However, they also face different issues such as keyboard, touchpad and screen problems. I can diagnose and repair these issues as well as do hardware upgrades. Often, computer upgrades can significantly improve the performance of an older laptop.

Hardware

Norm’s Computer Services is proud to offer both desktop tower computer repair in Sunnybank Hills and laptop repair in Underwood. Desktop computers are actually the most straightforward to repair as they can be readily disassembled and any of their constituent parts (such as the hard drive, the power supply circuitry and the graphics) can be replaced if required. Laptops, on the other hand, are normally assembled in a much more integrated fashion with all of their functionality residing on the system board. This means that it’s often not cost-effective to replace failed components such as the hard drive or the RAM.

It very much depends on what the issues are with your 10 year old computer. If the problem is merely that it’s slow, this can be quite easily rectified by replacing the hard drive with a Solid State Drive which should leave your machine running faster than ever before. However if the motherboard has failed, then it’s probably not worth repairing and you’d be best off considering buying a new computer.

Software

This includes issues with the operating system, internet connectivity, email handling, printing and other such problems. It also includes software installations and upgrades. This can include anything from a new printer driver to an anti-virus program or even a whole new operating system. There are various reasons why your 10 year old computer may be running slow. It might be the result of a software issue such as too many applications running, a virus or corruption of the operating system. It could have a hardware cause such as an ageing hard drive or lack of memory (RAM).
