Short Circuit Repair
This may involve cleaning your comptuer with a special chemical, and replacing or resolding components difficult to see with the naked eye.
Here you can see 3 tiny resistors which need replacing.
Component Level Repair
Component level repair is where we replace individual components on your motherboard and repair the tiny pathways which connect them!
This is very time consuming and difficult process, but if successful the computer should function as if nothing happened.
Not Booting Laptops
Sometimes a surge or short circuit will result in a computer that doesn’t boot.
As part of our rapid assessment we can tell what’s going on EVEN if there’s nothing on the screen.
Power Surge
A power surge can also cause your computer to stop working. The surge can damage the internal components and result in a computer that doesn’t turn on.
Water Damage Repair
Water can ruin your laptop by changing where the electricity is going.
When the electricity cannot complete its normal path, the laptop is said to be “short circuited”
Removing water damage, and restoring the circuit can fix this issue!
