Solve : Recommendations for where to get computer serviced?

Answer»

We're in the GTA in Ontario, and our computer needs to be looked at by a professional, (we've only managed to make things worse by tinkering on our own). Does anyone have a recommendation for where to take it?

Is Future Shop a good idea?  It's a Dell Dimension 8200.Zip Code Please  

[glb]Flame[/glb]M1M 3P6hhhmmm... Do you have a CompUSA http://www.compusa.com  , a BestBuy http://www.bestbuy.com , or a Circuit City http://www.circuitcity.com  in your area?

[glb]Flame[/glb]Yes, we have a Best Buy...shall we head there?Well, I'm glad that of all places, you have a bestBuy, becuase inside all BestBuy stores now, is something called GEEK Squad. They are a computer support task force, and can get you back on your feet. So yes, head over to BestBuy, and go to the Geek Squad department. If for some reason, your location does not support geek Squad, then BestBuy will do a good job as well. (Although bestbuy says that Geek Squad is in EVERY store. http://geeksquad.com/servicesandpricing/bestbuyprecincts.php  )  Good luck!  

[glb]Flame[/glb]A privateer pc shop MAY produce better results.....check with other peoples recomendations......

What is wrong with your pc.......and is it still under warrenty from dell?How old is it?

[glb]Flame[/glb]It's about five years old. I doubt it's still under warranty, but we've LOST that info anyhow.

We'll head over to Best Buy, thanks guys!Sure! let us know if you have any more questions!

Here of course.  LEARN how to maintain it yourself.

Saves money!Depends on what is wrong with it though...

[glb]Flame[/glb]We need to replace the hard drive, it was "operating outside if specifications", and rebooting endlessly.  But we might end up just buying a new computer, cause we'd like a RAM upgrade too, and the TYPE of RAM we have is obsolete, very difficult to find and extremely expensive.

I'm hoping we're gonna go for a new one.  Good luck then! Come back and see us if you have any more questions!
