    Recommendation for reliable and good computer repair person.

    Location:  Sebastopol
    i have a Toshibi computer that stopped turning on a few years ago just after it's warranty was up.
    At the time I was I'll and had no need for the computer and no energy to get it fixed.
    I need a computer again would like it fixed rather than buying a new one and adding to the landfill.
    I know there are individuals listed in the Business Section, however I prefer a recommendation from someone who has actually used the person. Last time I was ripped off, they took the numbers for my software and used on another computer, so I get error messages that my Windows programs are not mine and I needed to pay again to use the package.
    Thanks in advance for any help you can give ne.

    Your computer could have a power button problem, a battery problem, an adapter problem. a screen problem, try starting it hooked to a monitor. Its not a software problem because you can still get into bios no matter the condition of your software. I would imagine that taking an hour or two to figure, say $100 worth of time.

    The price for a decent computer from computer recycling with a period of guarantee is about $250, the one I bought from them has been going for three years.

    Your computer has value just in parts depending on how old it is, hard drive, memory, dvd, software key Vista forward

    I took my crashed computer to the recycle center; they sold me a different one for $100 and it has served me just fine until I bought my Chromebook this summer. Gotta say it: I my HP 14" Google ChromeBook!!
