Repair vs Replace ?
At AA Discount Computer, we are not shy to suggest that you buy a new
computer instead of fixing the old one you have when that is your best move.
That seems odd coming from a company that makes its living fixing old
machines. After all, if we suggest you replace your machine, we lose a
potential service call. But it is our way of building trust with you so that
you know when you call us that you are getting good advice.
So, should you replace that old machine?
When you have a problem with your computer, it is either going to be
software or hardware that is failing you. In other words, the issue is going
to stem from either a) corruptions in the operating system ((from viruses, spyware/adware, or general deterioration or b) in failures of the physical
parts of the machine (i.e. failures in the modem, network card, the hard
drive, the processor or the motherboard, etc.). Knowing where the problem
generally stems from will help you to evaluate this decision.
You also need to know what the replacement cost of your machine is. Chances
are if your machine came with Windows 95 pre loaded, it is a good bet that
even looking at a machine like that is too expensive. If it is a Windows 98
or Windows ME era machine, it may not be worth working on - depending on
what it needs.
Generally with software corruptions or virus infected machines that can be
cleaned up with a couple of hours attention will be worth servicing. If they
require small parts (like a network card or a modem or memory) that will be
worth it as well. But, if the motherboard or processor needs to be replaced
in almost all cases it will be time to upgrade the machine.
What about my data, my personal information?
If you do decide to buy a new machine, you don't need to worry about your
personal information. In almost all cases, transferring your email, word
processing documents, financial data, music, and video files is a breeze. We
can often move your entire hard drive of information over to a new machine
in less than an hour service call and have you up running on a faster,
easier to use machine in no time.
Can you help me to decide?
If you want an evaluation of your machine, just request a service call. In
almost all cases we can help you determine over the phone what a benchmark
value for your machine is and what the likely causes of its issues are. It
costs nothing and you will gain the knowledge and information you need to
make a good decision.
