No matter how good a computer system is, at some stage it is very
likely that it will either require some form of repair or upgrade,
in order to replace a defective component, extend the life of the
machine or improve on its performance. You never know when a
component is going to fail and quite often defects can be brought
about by forces outside of the control of the user, such as an
electrical fault, or one component becoming defective and causing
another to fail simultaneously.
Components that fail due to normal wear and tear include the
following:
Major problems can also be caused when components such as the
motherboard or processor (CPU) fail. Quite often motherboard
defects are caused by electrical faults, surges or
ESD
(Electro-Static Discharge). It is not uncommon for a failing
power supply unit, that is emitting irregular electrical impulses,
to also cause a serious motherboard defect, requiring a replacement
to be installed.
Improper handling of sensitive components can also cause defects
brought about by
ESD (Electro-Static Discharge), that is a powerful
electrical charge given off by the human body, and can cause serious
damage to computer components. It is for this reason that
extreme caution must be taken when handling computer equipment,
during a repair or upgrade process. We have an immense amount
of experience in carrying out a variety of repairs and upgrades, and
as such always adhere to commonly used precautionary procedures when
handling sensitive computer components.
