Laptop Answer

Slow, dead, or not charging does not always mean replace.

For Wood River Valley laptop problems, start with the symptom: no power, no charge, slow performance, malware, heat, battery, broken screen, or data risk. HDR can tell you whether a repair, upgrade, cleanup, or replacement makes the most sense.

These are not binding quotes. Your exact price depends on your model, part grade, device condition, and parts availability — you get a firm number by text before any work begins.

Flat-rate services + quote-first hardware

Text-photo quotes are free. PC laptop hardware prices (screens, batteries, keyboards, ports, upgrades) vary too much by model for a fixed menu, so they're quoted per job after the $45 bench diagnosis — which is credited toward the repair. Flat-rate services are labor-only, so no sales tax. Data recovery turnaround depends on drive condition.

Common Problems

Sound familiar?

These are the most common laptop issues I fix. If yours is on this list, I can probably have it back to you today.

Takes forever to boot

Usually a dying hard drive. An SSD upgrade — quoted per job — turns a 3-minute boot into 15 seconds.

Cracked or blank screen

Screen replacement quoted per job after diagnosis. I match your exact panel — matte, glossy, or touch.

Dies in 30 minutes

Battery's shot. New battery quoted per job by model, installed same day. Your laptop should last 4+ hours again.

Won't turn on at all

No lights, no charging light, black screen, or USB-C power weirdness? Use the no-power bench rail before pressing it again.

Pop-ups & weird behavior

Malware or virus. I'll clean it out, remove the junk, and set up protection — flat $99 including a tune-up.

Overheating / loud fan

Dust buildup or thermal paste failure. Deep clean + new thermal paste — flat $89 — gets it running cool and quiet.

Keyboard not working

Stuck keys, dead keys, or liquid damage. Keyboard repair quoted per job after diagnosis — or external keyboard as a quick fix.

Laptop FAQ

Questions about laptop repair

How much does a laptop screen replacement cost?

PC laptop screens are quoted per job after diagnosis — panel prices vary widely by make and model. The $45 bench diagnostic is credited toward the repair. I source the exact panel for your model — matte, glossy, or touchscreen — so it looks factory-fresh, and I'll confirm the screen is the issue before starting.

Do you repair MacBooks too?

Yes — on their own page. MacBooks (Intel through Apple Silicon M1–M4) have a dedicated bench page covering screens, batteries, keyboards, and logic-board work, with MacBook-specific pricing. See MacBook repair in Hailey.

Will an SSD upgrade really make my old laptop faster?

Night and day difference. If your laptop still has a mechanical hard drive, swapping it for an SSD is the single best upgrade you can make. Boot times drop from 2–3 minutes to under 20 seconds. Apps open instantly. The whole machine feels new. Upgrades are quoted per job — text the model for a firm price on labor plus the SSD (typically $30–$80 for 500GB–1TB).

Can you recover files from a laptop that won't turn on?

Usually, yes. If the hard drive or SSD itself is still functional (which it often is even when the laptop is dead), I can pull the drive and recover your files. If the machine has no lights or no charging response, start with the laptop won't turn on repair guide so we know whether this is power repair, data recovery, or both. Data recovery is $99 for Tier 1 (logical) and from $199 for board-level Tier 2. I'll be upfront about chances before you commit.

How do I know if my laptop is worth repairing?

Good rule of thumb: if the repair costs less than 40–50% of a replacement, it's usually worth it. I'll always give you an honest assessment. Sometimes I tell people "this laptop has had a good run — put the repair money toward a new one." No hard sell, ever.

My kid spilled water on their Chromebook — can you fix it?

Bring it in ASAP. Turn it off, don't charge it, and get it to me as fast as possible. Liquid damage gets worse over time as corrosion sets in. I'll open it up, clean the board, and assess the damage. The sooner I see it, the better the odds. Same advice as phones — skip the rice.
