It all began when my son disassembled his out-of-warranty MSI gaming laptop ($2200 new) to replace the charging port. Unable to fix it, he shipped the motherboard to a guy who replaced the charging port ($60) but used so much glue the motherboard no longer fit properly in the case--the guy's advice was to drill a hole in the case, which we didn't do. Instead, my son put the motherboard in without closing the case and then botched the reassembly to where nothing worked. (Laptops are apparently harder to repair than desktops.) Realizing my son wasn't cut out for this kind of work, I took his laptop to the Computer Repair Connection. Juan re-repaired the charging port, completely disassembled then reassembled the laptop, reinstalled the operating system, and reconfigured the settings. I got it back the next day for $200 ($99 for the rebuild and $99 for troubleshooting and software install--all labor, no parts), which was more than reasonable for the work required. (I've paid the Geek Squad far more for smaller problems, and they took much longer.) Juan updated me regularly and stuck to his estimate. A week later, after heavy gaming, the laptop still runs perfectly. I would definitely use Juan again. My only complaints, which are small, are that I emailed the shop in advance to see whether they felt the problem was fixable but received no reply; also, when dropping it off, my fiancé mentioned that the keyboard didn't work (a problem that predated the broken charging port), but the keyboard wasn't fixed and no one explained why. (My research suggests it's an expensive hardware problem, so I probably wouldn't have wanted it repaired anyway. It works fine with an external keyboard.)

They transferred our data to this newer machine, installing Windows 11, which resulted in a common problem: only one of us (the original "administrator") could now open their documents.

We ended up finding Frankenstein in North Austin, quite far from our home, but oh, such a difference in expertise and attitude! Problem solved, first trying to fix it remotely and failing, then taking old and new computer to Frankenstein. I do not intend to return to Computer Repair Connection.

The Genius Bar at Apple told me it could not be repaired and I would need to replace the Logic Board for $850 or "just buy a new one." A local (Orange County) 3rd party repair shop, after having it for a week, told me it couldn't be repaired. I then went to Reddit for help and suggestions. There were several referrals to Rossmann Repair Group. I contacted them through their online contact form. They immediately messaged with a few more questions and then gave me the necessary details to send my device to them in Austin. I did so - of course, the holidays slowed things down a bit, but by the second week in January, I received word that my lap top had been successfully repaired, losing NONE of my data. Amazing! The cost? A mere $459 which includes shipping back (USPS) to me, signing at delivery. I did have go pay for shipping to get it to them. Totally worth it to me. To insure safe and speedy delivery, signing upon delivery, to them. I paid about $89 for UPS, not including double boxing and bubble wrap. So, in total, I paid $638, for shipping to, repair, shipping back. I didn't lose ANY of my data. I am sooo happy and thankful to Rossmann Repair Group. Thank you!!!

After about 5 minutes he came back stating the power rail was broken, but I did not proceed with the repair, as the cost of repair was more than the value of the laptop. The quote was half of Apple's quote and came with a guarantee if that I will not pay if they can't successfully fix it. This is miles better than the Apple store as they would make you wait over 15 minutes even though you had an appointment just for the "genius" to say you need to quote an $800 logic board replacement.

That being said, I had a serious framerate issue with my gaming desktop, and was doing troubleshooting on it for two weeks. I consulted Reddit, I wiped everything besides the BIOS, ran plenty of diagnostics, gave it a good dusting, but nothing fixed the issue. I finally decided to take it in and have someone look at the hardware, realizing most likely I had a busted chord or fan somewhere that would need to be replaced. I gave Scott a rundown, and he told me he would call me when he figured it out. He called me ten minutes later, so quickly I did not see the call until they had already closed. I then worked the rest of the week with Alicia who did all the replacements for my cooling system, graphics card and power core.
