PC & laptop diagnostics
When the cause is unclear, proper testing comes before repair. Our technicians assess the symptoms, test the relevant hardware and provide findings and practical repair options.
When you need diagnostics
- Computer will not power on
- No display or startup failure
- Intermittent freezing or crashing
- Blue-screen errors
- Unexpected shutdowns
- Slow or unstable performance
- Overheating and fan issues
- Suspected drive or memory failure
What we may test
There is no honest single-button test that proves every component in every condition.
Hardware
Memory, storage health, power, temperatures and relevant components are checked where applicable.
Software
Windows startup, drivers, system errors and software-related instability may be investigated.
Reproduction
Intermittent faults may require repeated tests or extended observation to reproduce.
