"Computer did the "gotta send info to Microsoft" but when tried to reboot it ran through automatic repair without success. I did all the alternative without any success. He came and picked up the hard drive on Tuesday and returned it on Saturday. Fortunately he was able to "restore" without any data loss. Very happy with outcome."
"Went great! Works much faster than it did even before I messed it up. I have used Chip before and was very pleased with his work. That is why I didn't hesitate to call him again. He is professional, punctual and very honest. Chip knows his stuff and I would recommend him for all your computer needs."

"Went very well.....scheduled appointment at my convenience, was on time, and worked very quickly. Showed what work he did. I waited a couple of weeks before submitting this report to make sure I had no further issues. Computer works fine and problem resolved. I would use My Computer Buddy again. Very professional.....explained everything he was going to do. "
"They were a little slow on replying to my inquiries, sometimes several days. My laptop was returned fully functional, but covered with dust. I had to clean it when I received it. They did more than I asked by replacing the motherboard, where I thought that they would only repair the DC jack (my laptop wouldn't charge after buying a new battery and a new AC adapter). "

Aim for a uniform, smooth joint to ensure a good electrical connection. If it looks crusty and uneven, your iron tip might be dirty or the joint isn’t hot enough. To keep the iron tip clean, wipe the tip with a damp sponge or brass tip cleaner when you spot black spots or rust to remove any oxidation and flux residue. Tinning the tip surface with a small amount of solder offers a layer of additional protection.
The duration of a repair job can range from a few hours to several days. Simpler issues may take 1-4 hours, while more complex work or extensive damage could take 1-3 days. The final timeline depends on the complexity of the problem, the extent of the damage, and the location of the work.
