I'm so happy that I found someone I can honestly trust with my computer, Sal is very honest knowledgable and very fair in his prices. I have another computer that I need the screen replaced and I will be going back once I get the screen from Amazon. I have already referred my friend to him. read more

I am so lucky to have found Sal. This man knows everything about computers. We were having major problems with our 8 year old laptop and thought for sure that we needed to buy a new one. After reading the reviews on Yelp, my husband called Sal. He did a complete evaluation and knew exactly what needed to be done. The price he quoted was very reasonable for everything he was going to do. Very reasonable! We left the computer with him and the next day it was operating like brand new. Actually better than new. Sal upgraded to Windows 10, installed a new and better virus/security system, transferred data, and cleaned up old problems that were slowing the computer down, plus more. He has extensive expertise in computers and understands how everything should work. Sal is our go to person for anything computer related. read more

Last Sunday, I got one of those annoying screens that says "warning" while working on my browser and it wouldn't go away. I couldn't use that browser even after rebooting--the screen just kept coming up. Usually this is a virus and I was worried it would spread. Luckily, Sal called me back in less than half an hour and I was able to take it to him. He had it fixed and some new antivirus and malware programs installed by Tuesday evening and I was able to get it back. If I have trouble in the future, I will not hesitate to call him again. read more

I am extremely satisfied after getting my laptop repaired through this company. SAL was so helpful and took all the initiative to get my Laptop rebuilt with all the necessary stuff in it. Today i am having a system which is as good as buying a new one from the store. Thanks to SAL and his company for doing such a wonderful service. The rates where also very reasonable and better compared to other service providers. The good part is he took extra care in educating me on some basic tips to use the Windows-10 operating system which I really appreciate. I trust this company and would recommend to all with no hesitations. It was a Great Experience ! read more

My old 5 year old+ desktop computer was starting to run really slow so I shopped around and decided to bring my computer to Sal. I was using a very old OS so he completely upgraded it in a short time span and now my computer is literally running like new. I saved a lot of money coming to Sal over a certain big box store that quoted me an absurd service fee. And communication was top notch. My calls and texts were answered/returned immediately. I'll definitely be back for any future work and consultation! read more

My cheap PC almost died. I love it though because it's been so good to me, I never back it up or do major updates. I've been anticipating one day it would crash or just not power up because it's been running slow. But I was hoping this would happen only after I had the time and day to do a full back up and save all my pictures and important documents. I also have thousands of photos on my phone because I'm afraid to upload them to my computer and have it die on me. If and when my computer went into a coma my plan was to search computer repair on Yelp and hope for the best. A couple of weeks ago my beloved computer was not powering up and I began to panic. I started to troubleshoot it and follow the computer prompts for self-repair. In the meantime I get on my cell phone and start searching for someone to repair my computer. Based on reviews and gut instinct I chose Sal with East Bay Computer Services. I gave him a call and left him a message. While I waited for a return call my computer miraculously started working again. I thought it would still be worthwhile to talk to Sal and have him look at my computer. Sal called within the hour and I immediately felt I could trust him with my computer. He made me feel at ease and confident that he would fix any remaining issues if any. I asked him how much it would cost for him to diagnose and he quickly answered, I had to ask him to repeat the quote because I didn't think I heard correctly. We agreed on a date and time to drop off my computer and after meeting him I had no worries leaving my laptop with him for a couple of days. Two days later, as promised, he returned my computer fully backed up to my external hard drive, clean of computer viruses and running just a little faster. To top it off his final charge was less $20 than he originally quoted. As long as Sal stays open for business I will have peace of mind when my computer breaks down or goes into a coma. Thank you, Sal. :) read more

I found this place on yelp & can now relate to all the comments. I called to make an appt. for my computer. Within 24 hours, Sal diagnosed and fixed the problem on my laptop. He let me know that my laptop was ready for pick up & his price was more than reasonable. He did such an efficient & effective job on my laptop, I brought him another laptop to repair. And again I was not disappointed! If you want your computer repair done quickly and not to break your wallet, call Sal! read more

My laptop would not boot at all, but Sal at least was able to boot it to a point where it was determined that I had a bad memory board that we both agreed it was not worth fixing on this old laptop. He suggested some good PCs that have fewer hardware issues. He didn't even charge me for the diagnostics as I did not want to go through the expense of getting a new motherboard. He was very knowledgeable and pleasant to do business with. I highly recommend his services. read more

Excellent service and very reasonable/affordable prices. If you are in the east bay I highly recommend Sal you will not be disappointed.

Sal Singh has save my important data from a corrupt system on my laptop. He is very knowledgeable about the ins and out of networking, software and hardware. Most importantly he is a very personable technician that charges a very reasonable rate. Great experience with his service. read more

Sal at East Bay Computer Services is THE man when it comes to computer repair. He has kept my laptops running in top shape and makes sure the security is all up to date and functioning as it should. There are places closer to where I live to have my computers checked-fixed, but it's worth the drive to see Sal, because I know whatever needs to be done will be done--and done right. My advice to computer repair? To play off a tagline from a legendary old school, late night TV car dealer ad... Go see Sal-go see Sal-go see Sal! read more

I am a big fan of Sal and how he runs his business. He has been incredibly reasonable and straight forward when it came to fixing thing that may be best tossed....yep still on a windows xp operating system and holding on for dear life! He is very responsive to my questions in a timely manner. Very hard to find these days. He not only helped me bandaid my system until I have time to purchase a new machine, but has been helping me in figuring out what that machine should be to meet my specific needs. Totally honest and reasonable. I definitely recommend East Bay Computer Services! read more

Sal is great! Reasonably priced and fast turn-around. I took my laptop to him when it became infested with viruses. He cleaned them up and installed a couple of free malware programs that work great. And all of my desktop links and my favorites lists were left untouched. Also I didn't realize how grungy my laptop had become until I picked it up. Sal cleaned it up so it looks like new and the outside is as clean as the insides. It now looks and runs like new! read more

Sal has always been extremely helpful and informative. I've never felt ripped off because of his detailed honesty on the issue and what is the solution. Unlike other places that try to make up all the things that are wrong, he will show you. Complete honesty is key to keeping customers and he definitely has that read more

My external hard disk with close to 1 TB of media was not accessible and I took this to Sal. He was very professional and get managed to recover all my data at a very reasonable price. I would strongly recommend him for data recovery services. read more

I could not give a higher recommendation for Sal. Reliable, compentent, professional & personable are a few descriptors that come to mind. If that's not enough, his prices are also very reasonable. He replaced the screen on my laptop and returned it the next day working beautifully. To my pleasant surprise, he completely cleaned it. I didn't realize how dirty it had gotten. You can't go wrong with Sal! read more

My computer was a mess invaded by many viruses and other garbage. All my job work is on my computer so I was freaking out. Despite my amateur efforts, I needed a pro. People were telling me I had to wipe the hard drive and start over. Contacted Sal from the other great reviews. He's everything that has been mentioned, extremely knowledgeable, nice, reasonably priced, patient and informative. He cleaned everything up and loaded better security than I had (since it obviously didn't work!) My computer has been healed! Sal saved me! I will go to Sal for all my computer issues! read more

Sal was able to give me an assessment on my dead computer within hours. Since the verdict was dismal, he didn't plan to charge me at all. He was also willing to spend time to advise me re disposal and a new purchase. BTW, the location is Hayward, not East Oakland; and it's not exactly a hole-in-wall, rather a private residence (although on a very dark street if you happen to drop by in the PM). All in all, I was confident that he accurately diagnosed the problem. Very pleasant and professional. read more

Decided to give Sal a try after reading the reviews on Yelp. I was pleasantly pleased with the result. His turn around time is fast, problem fixed and now my computer runs faster. He also removed two virus that my security software missed. His rates are low. Pleasant, honest, polite and knowledgeable man. I am planning to return yearly to have Sal do a general clean up. Good to know that he also works on Apple computers/laptops. read more

Sal was able to fix my computer and answer all my questions post repair.

Sal is the man! I took my computer to him a couple weeks ago as it was having some internet connection issues, and Sal fixed the problem within a matter of minutes. Not only did he fix the problem, he also went the extra mile and turned off background programs that were running that didnt need to be, and he also cleaned the up hard drive. He did all this and only charged me for the initial problem. I will take my computer to him every time I have an issue and will also be referring friends and family to him. read more
