Common repairs
Screen
Cracked, black, flickering or lined screens. We fit a matching panel and test it for dead pixels, brightness and colour.
Battery
Drains fast, shuts down with charge left or shows a service warning? We fit a new battery and check the charging circuit.
Keyboard
Missing, sticking or dead keys and spill damage. On some models the keyboard is fixed to the top case, and we tell you before starting.
Hinges
Stiff, loose or broken hinges and mounts pulling out of the case. Fixing them early protects the screen.
Charging
Not charging, or only at an angle? We test the charger, the Round DC jack port and the power circuit to find the fault.
Slow laptop
Long start-ups and freezing are usually an old drive, too little memory or unwanted software. An SSD and a clean-up often fix it.
Hard drive to SSD
Swapping an old spinning hard drive for an SSD is the biggest speed-up these machines can get. We move your files across.
Good to know
Toshiba laptops are now sold under the Dynabook name. Many older Satellites still have a spinning hard drive, and swapping it for an SSD makes them far quicker.
Questions
Is it worth repairing my Toshiba Tecra A50-E?
Usually, yes. Business laptops are designed to be serviced and parts are easy to find.
Will my files be safe?
Most repairs do not touch your storage, but back up anything important if you can. If it will not start, tell us and we will take extra care.
How long will it take?
Many repairs are done the same day when the part is in stock. If we need to order a part, we give you a date when you drop it off.
How do I find my exact model?
Check the label underneath, or search for “System Information” on the computer. Or bring it in and we will check.
