He provided excellent service and while he couldn't ultimately fix the iPod, he continued to try and find a solution. Additionally, I called him and he worked with me remotely and over the phone to try and find an easy way to simplify iTunes and eliminate duplications. He also did not want to charge me for the extra time he spent on the iPod, which ended up being corrupt. I would highly recommend him and plan to use him in the future for all of my computer issues.
Description of Work: Andrew moved music from my backup drive into iTunes and worked on my iPod (issues with updating it from my computer).

I was very favorably impressed with Andy's professionalism and engaging personality. I felt that his service was great and the price was ressonable. I plan to use Andy for future pc problems and highly recommend him to users of Angies List.
Description of Work: I took my laptop pc to Andy after finding him in Angies List. He said he would examine and diagnose the problem at no cost and call me the same afternoon with the results of his examination. He called me that afternoon and said the screen was damaged and gave me a price to replace the screen. I agreed to have the pc repaired and he said it would be ready within a few days.

Andy responded promptly to a message I left for him over the holidays. He was pleasant and professional; came to pick up my computer at my home office, worked on it during the day, and returned it late that afternoon fully restored and cleaned, virus-free. I felt confident that he knew what he was doing and was very impressed with his service and friendly attitude. I will definitely use this company again!
Description of Work: My computer had a nasty virus and Andy was able to clean and restore it in a single day.

Description of Work: We took our laptop to Andy Dietz,Owner of BR Computer Repair, for a tune-up and to remove suspected virus and malware bugs. Instead of performing both of these tasks separately, he recommended deleting and relaoding all the software -- at a lower price. I was nervous about losing any of my data, "Favorites" files or e-mail records, but Andy saved saved all my files so I did not lose any of my data. I'm working with Andy now to find a computer for my grandkids to use. He does sell pre-owned computers, but is also very helpful with evaluating options and making recommendations.

After discussing circumstances of my harddrive failure, BRCR outlined potential fixes, including something for me to try at home which would save some money, however BRCR also indicated that these fixes were longshots. Alternatively, BRCR gave me the name of another local componay that he thought would be better able to address my needs. Ultimately, even though I didn't actually use BRCR's services, I really appreciated the honesty and the willingness to point me in the right direction for my needs.
Description of Work: I contacted BRCR to inquire about hardrive data recovery services for my home PC.

Andy came out to the house and repaired all the computers needing work, except one lap top needing a new drive. He wanted to return the computer earlier than we were able to be available. He immediately adjusted the schedule to work with us. He set new programs, cleaned up the memory, backed-up the information, and helped us with all our questions. No one could ask for a nicer, more helpful, knowledgeable person than Andy. He deserves all A's
Description of Work: Andy was fantastic. We had multiple computer issues. All were repaired in a very reasonable amount of time. He even went so far as to pick-up a new IPAD for my husband. Andy is pleasant and friendly, very nice to be around. If we have any future computer issues, Andy will be the very first person we call.

Not only did the work quickly, he also was very responsive and helpful as the inevitable small issues surfaced when I got the computer back. I could call him and get prompt help with problems such as losing the volume icon on the taskbar. Would definitely work with him again.

I caused an error on my laptop that made it non-functional. Andy Dietz from Broad Ripple Computer Repair came on a Thursday, took the laptop back to his shop, and returned it the following Monday. He had to save my data, erase the entire hard drive, and re-install my operating system. My PC continued to run very slowly in spite of some work Andy had done on it earlier this year to clean it up. Andy installed some additional short-term memory and now the PC is running very well. When Andy was working on my PC earlier this year, he had to delete my system and restore it. As a part of that work, he installed WORD Version 7. After trying to use it for awhile, I really did not like it. So Andy deleted Version 7 and re-installed my original version of WORD on both the PC and laptop. Andy is competent, knowledgeable, professional and a very pleasant young man. He is very helpful with answering questions. He discussed MP3 players with me, and bookmarked an Amazon website so that I could check some out. I will rely on him for any computer problems.
Description of Work: Cleared up a problem with my laptop; installed additional memory on my PC; re-installed my original version of WORD on both the PC and laptop

I had a virus on my computer that prevented me from using it. Andy Dietz came on a Friday and took a look at it. He had to remove the computer to his workshop to work on it, and brought it back the following Monday. He had to totally clean out the hard drive and reinstall the operating system and my programs. He backed up all the documents and photos that were on the computer so that none of them were lost. He upgraded my Word to Word Version 7. He reset my Yahoo home page. My printer's troubleshooting software was not working, and he reinstalled the printer software. My computer had been operating with excruciating slowness, and it now runs very well. My previous virus scan program took up a lot of space on my hard drive, and I think was contributing to the slowness. Since it was expiring soon anyway, Andy deleted it and installed a new free Microsoft virus scan program, which he says is a very good one. My DSL connection was lost (red light on the modem). Andy looked at it, and it turned out I would have just needed to flip the switch back on on the modem. On my laptop, he cleaned out some junk so that the laptop now runs more efficiently too. He connected the laptop to my printer through my wireless router, which I had never been able to figure out how to do. He also installed Word Version 7 and the new virus scan on the laptop. He gave me advice on whether I needed to switch from my DSL provider to a cable provider, and answered numerous other questions. After he left, I later discovered that there was a problem with how to get into my Yahoo homepage. It was not urgent, and Andy called me several days later and remotely fixed the problem. Andy is a very nice young man and highly competent. He spent more time than he charged me for, and did everything he could to make both the PC and the laptop run as efficiently as possible. I definitely would recommend him to other people.
Description of Work: Fixed a virus on my PC. Looked at a problem with my DSL connection. Connected my laptop to my printer through my wireless router. Upgraded both computers to Word Version 7. Installed a new virus scan program.Reset Yahoo as my home page. Cleaned up my laptop. Etc.

I have been looking some time for someone who serviced MAC. We had a mac book pro & just got an iMac desktop. I called Broad Ripple Computer Repair Monday morning & he came out that afternoon. He arrived about 10 minutes late but he called to let me know which wasn't any big deal. He performed different task on both computers. He told me that my existing printer wouldn't share a network as I wanted both computers to use the printer. He had some printers so I purchased 1 that was compatible with my computers. I'm so glad he had them because I didn't want to have to go out & buy 1 & wait to be installed. Andrew is very knowledgeable & very thorough in his work. I am so glad I finally found someone for my MAC computers! I would definitely use & recommend Broad Ripple Computer Repair to everyone, in fact he's coming back today, 2 days later!

When my hard drive crashed, I called the manufacturer and was told there was no way to recover my data. I paid them $100 for this privilege. (2008 computer was out of warranty). At the recommendation of friends, I was told to call a particular company. They quoted $250, said they may not be able to recover my data and that it would take several weeks. They were insistent on selling me a support program for $20 per month. When I called Andy, he picked my computer up that day and called the next day to say he was able to recover almost all of it! I was thrilled. I had so many family photos and videos that are precious to me. I had procrastinated and not backed up in ages. At my request, Andy installed an external drive and set it to back up daily. Andy is reliable, personal and professional. He answered all of my questions. I highly recommend him. I plan to use him for all my computer needs in the future.
Description of Work: Recovered data from dead hardrive and installed an external hardrive for back up on new computer.

Broad Ripple Computer Services respond promptly to my initial inquiry -- answering all my questions and providing a firm price quote in advance. Andy Dietz, owner of the company, picked up the laptop the next day -- did the work requested and delivered the reconditioned computer to us on the day promised. Overall the service and work was excellent.

I got a phone quote and the part was ordered without any advance payment. When the part arrived in a few days I set up a time to drop off my laptop for an hour and when I came back it was fixed. The cost of the repair, including the part, was very reasonable and I even have a spare hinge if the problem reoccurs.

Andy Dietz is the owner of Broad Ripple Computer Repair. He was a very pleasant young man. The only thing I didn't like about him was while he was working on the computer, he was also talking on his cell phone. He worked quickly and he worked competently. His price was fair. He came right away and in fact, he came early. I would use his service in the future.

Andy was great about getting back to me. He scheduled his visit soon after I called him and he was on time. He was neat, well organized and extremely knowledgeable about his work. He explained everything to me. I will definitely use him again.
Description of Work: I had an old Dell desktop that I no longer used but it had a lot of data that I wanted to keep. Andy took my old desktop pc back to his office, recovered all of the data that I wanted and transferred it to CD's. He made sure it was in a format that I could read on my Mac if I needed to at a later date. When he brought the CD's back to me the next day, he made sure the data came up on my Mac and he explained how it was organized. He was very thorough. He also discarded my old computer which I no longer wanted. He also ran virus scans on my Apple computers since they were running slow.
