"I have used Mike's Computer Repair for several years now, and have always been extremely satisfied. Mike is very trustworthy so I never have to worry about turning over "control" of my computer to him. I have called on Mike numerous times when I mess up something on the computer and he quickly takes care of my mistakes and doesn't act like I'm an idiot. I highly recommend using Mike."

"Anthony called at a predetermined time to help me with an issue that I had not experienced in the past.  He was very professional, extremely pleasant and when he took remote control of my computer, I knew we were in good hands.  He restored documents and pictures that I thought were hopelessly lost.  He also cleaned up and eliminated unnecessary programs.    I sat in the comfort of my home, sipping coffee while watching Anthony work his magic.  Take my tower to a shop where it will languish for two weeks?  No thanks!  I will be contacting Anthony for any future computer repairs.

"Ron was just great, had problem with Laptop on a Tuesday. Text him Wednesday morning and he had time that day but I didn't but we made plans for Thursday. He was very prompt an curtious to me like always. It took him about 10 min. and he said he had to take to shop. Met with him at 1:00 pm on Thursday. Friday morning he text me that it was fixed, and sent another text that he could drop it off around noon on Saturday and he did and showed me what he did without the loose of any of my wifes files and reinstalled updates as needed. He also added a protection program and speeded up the Laptop which Tech-To-Go could not do from the get go, all they said is you needed a new computer. CPR Computer Repair in CB is my place to go for my backup guy period. 5 Stars all the way around."

"Excellent service, very fast response to my request for service, picked up laptop, diagnosed issues. Initially thought it was an OS update issue but the hard drive had failed along with other components (including 'CPU). Because other components were involved, a new solid state hard drive was put into a laptop with a working processor - same type CPU as in the failed unit. The laptop was repaired and returned in less than a week. This company picked up and dropped off the laptop (driving from Huntsville, AL (about 60-70 minutes)-- great service in this covid environment. I would recommend this company to my family./friends and will use again."

FAQs for computer repair projects in Sidney, IA

The time it takes to repair a computer depends on the repair needed and part availability. It can take between a few hours to three weeks to fully restore your computer. Certain repairs, like data recovery or network configuration, can be done remotely within a few hours. Other problems, like a Blue Screen Error Code, could take multiple days to resolve fully. Consult a computer repair technician for a diagnosis of your computer’s problem and estimated timeline for repairs.

The average desktop PC lasts three to eight years, while laptops last only three to five years. Desktop computers tend to last longer because of the extra space inside the box, which allows added airflow. This component also allows easy access to repair individual parts as needed. Laptops have more tightly packed components that can lead to overheating issues and a shorter lifespan.

There are several common repairs between laptops and desktops that you’ll need to address as soon as possible. A slow computer is often related to having too many files on your computer or even spyware. A computer repair professional will scan your system for malware and possibly add more RAM to increase the speed time. 

Another common problem is overheating, which is caused by dust build-up on the computer components or a part failure. Older computers might develop graphic problems where the display is fuzzy or altered.

In most circumstances, a computer repair will cost less than replacing your computer. However, there are a few factors to consider before making that decision. First, if the repair will cost more than half the cost of a replacement computer, it might be worth replacing it, especially if it’s reaching its age limit. 

In addition, it’s essential to consider whether the repair is a one-time deal or regular occurrence. If the repair is a simple upgrade, it’s worth repairing. However, if you have a serious problem like excessive spyware that cannot be fully resolved, it’s better to replace it.

The average cost for computer repair is between $50 to $150. On average, computer repair technicians charge $60 per hour, though that price can be as low as $40 to as high as $90 per hour. 

The necessary repairs will often dictate the type of charge you’ll incur. For example, laptop hardware replacement, such as hard drives, RAM, or keyboards, typically costs $30 per component. However, a complete tuneup, which includes computer upgrades and virus removal, averages around $150.
