Faults we can assess
Start with the symptom, not a guessed part
A computer that will not boot, a damaged laptop or an unstable gaming PC can have several possible causes. Diagnosis comes before parts are ordered.
An upgrade did not improve performance
Compatibility, temperatures, firmware, drivers and the actual bottleneck are checked before more parts are bought.
Laptop will not charge
The charger, socket or USB-C port, battery and motherboard charging path are tested together.
Console has no picture or power
Cable, display, port, power stage, storage and motherboard condition can affect the result.
Gaming PC crashes under load
Temperatures, memory stability, power delivery, graphics behaviour and recent upgrades can be tested under a relevant workload.
PC is overheating or unusually loud
Dust, airflow, fan condition, thermal contact and high background load are checked rather than replacing cooling parts blindly.
Computer will not turn on
External power, internal power delivery, memory, storage, display behaviour and motherboard stages may all need checking.
