1. Step-1: How to Repair a Computer
(1-888-269-0130)
Any abnormality in the integrated components of a computer can prove
harmful to its performance, but some general computer issues can be
addressed without seeking professional IT help. Among the most
common problems you may encounter are issues with the computer
freezing and appearances of the infamous "no boot" or "blue screen of
death." To repair a computer, you'll need to troubleshoot the issue and
determine if the fix is something you can perform yourself; for more
complicated problems, however, consider seeking the help of a
professional.
3. Step-2
Computer is freezing or not running well
(1-888-269-0130)(1-888-269-0130)
Computers may freeze on account of any hardware or software
issue, so here you need to understand the exact reason behind it.
Notice if the issue started when you connected any hardware
peripherals like a printer or scanner; then it might be due to a
driver conflict. If the issue occurred after installing a new hard
drive, then it might be due to insufficient power or too much heat.
Follow the troubleshooting pattern below to repair your computer, if
such problems occur.
6. Step 3 :
Give your computer a bit of rest
(1-888-269-0130)
If you leave your computer on all the time, you can often fix a problem
by turning off the computer, then unplugging it (or remove the battery, if
it is a laptop), then holding down the power button for 30 seconds while
computer remains unplugged (this will often cause a light, or lights, to
flash), then reinserting the battery, plugging the computer back in and
powering it on. By cutting off
7. Step 4 :
Determine if your computer becomes
too hot
(1-888-269-0130)
You will need to take a look inside for this. Remember that
any time you need to open up your computer cabinet, shut
down your computer and unplug it. If you have long hair, tie it
back. Take off any jewelry that might get in the way. Also
avoid wearing any clothing that produces a lot of static, as a
spark can damage hardware and cause intermittent, hard-to-
troubleshoot problems.
9. Diagnostics
Many computers now come with built-in diagnostics which can tell you if
you have certain issues. Two brands of computer that normally have
diagnostic options are HP/Compaq and Dell. To access these diagnostic
options:
Power down the computer, wait a few seconds then turn it back on.
HP - Immediately start pressing F2 on startup to access the diagnostic
menu. Select Start Up Test, Quick, One Pass (if option is present) to
begin the testing process.
Dell - Immediately start pressing F12 on startup to access the diagnostic
menu. Use the arrow keys to select Diagnostics from the menu.
Write down any error codes and consult the internet, the computer
manufacturer or a local technician for assistance.
10. Step-5 Open the cabinet of your
computer
If it’s hot, then there may be a heat related issue. For laptops, you
generally do not want to try to open the case, but you can still
vacuum the fan ports. Some computers just run hot, particularly
laptops, but heat is never good for electronics. Gently examine the
front and rear fans and blow out any dust. You can apply a clean
cloth to dust out hidden particles. Remember: Your computer must
be shut down while you're cleaning inside it.
If you have more than one hard drive in your computer, avoid
installing them right next to each other in the chassis; this makes
them more prone to heat failure. To install an extra hard drive in a
wide slot, such as the slot that holds your CD-ROM or DVD-ROM
drive, you can buy mounting brackets at a store that sells computer
parts.
13. Inspect your Device Drivers
Many times when doing a Windows Update, your system may
download and install an incorrect driver, which may result in
the computer freezing. You can check the status of drivers
from Device Manager. Any devices with a yellow exclamation
next to them are in an error state. Unplug any USB devices, if
connected, and see if the error goes away. If so, that device is
a problem. Power-on your computer and see if it works. If it
does, good; otherwise you can restore your computer to an
earlier configuration. System Restore will roll your system back
to an earlier set of drivers.
15. Try a System Restore
It can be accessed by pressing and holding the Windows Logo key and
pressing R, and then typing "rstrui" in the Run dialog box. Using a restore
point to restore your computer can remove software (like an app, driver,
or update) that might be causing the problem.
Once started, System Restore can NOT be interrupted, so be patient.
Changes made to your PC by System Restore cannot be undone if you
are running it in Safe Mode or the Windows Recovery Environment.
