Within minutes, Doug was able to get the battery out for me (using a guitar pick of all things). He didn't charge me anything. I'll definitely use them for any future PC repairs.
Description of Work: My laptop computer has a spare battery that I rotate regularly with the primary one. I was unable to remove the battery in the PC this time---it was really stuck and prevented the release button from moving.

I am not sure about every thing done to resolve the virus and get my computer running, but it is and it is working well. They also added a free Microsoft virus monitoring software, to replace the ineffective McAffee software.
Description of Work: Virus prohibited my Start menu from running, so nothing worked when I booted up the computer. I tried two "virus removal" software products, as well as had a FixMeStick computer technician try to remotely fix my computer. A friend told me about the good work done by DR Micro. I took my computer in on Friday, and it was ready Saturday morning.

I took it in at 5:50 pm on Thursday, and they called me at 1:42 on Friday to say my computer was ready. See above for what provider did. I always take it to them, as I used to have a virus once a year that needed to be removed, now it seems like I'm having to take my computer to them at least twice a year, and they always do a speedy job. (This time was not a virus)
Description of Work: My mouse was freezing. I had taken it previously to them for this problem, and they uninstalled my Synaptic Touchpad device and re-installed it, and the problem appeared to have gone away. Then it started again. However, in all fairness, they did point out that the spring on my "pad" on the laptop had gone out on the left side that you use repeatedly to "double click", and it was due to me being impatient years ago and pressing down very h****** it, however the computer is still operational. They did some "cleaning up" on my computer, and got out the dust and cat hair out of my fan, and ran a scan on my computer to my external hard drive and checked that too as I had a problem with it recently running a scan. I have been on and off my computer for the last several hours, and not one "freeze up" of the mouse.

When I picked up the laptop, i did receive help installing and transferring data on one of the programs. The person working with me could not transfer all the data for the second program (only partially installed) I returned several weeks later for additional help, and was told to "Call Them" for help. It was obvious that they were not interested in "service after the sale".
Description of Work: I purchased a new laptop with the understanding that i would receive help installing several programs on the new laptop and then transferring data files.

.They were completely honest about the repair costs and gave me a lot of options to solve the problem without spending a lot of money to repair the keyboard.
Description of Work: .I hired this company to repair my son's keyboard on his laptop. They did not charge me because they did not do the repair because I decided not to have it repaired.

Their response to my problem was immediate and effective. My computer now works fine and I was not charged for the repair.I will be happy to recomened Dr. Micro to my freinds.
Description of Work: My four year old desktop computer could no longer read CD's or DVD's. Running diagnostic programs and a cleaning disc did nothing. I finally took the computer in to Dr. Micro. They immediately examined the machine, identified the problem and fixed it in about 15 minutes while I waited. All for no charge! They asked only that I give one of their business cards to some of my friends.

I have a fairly old computer that was getting very slow so I was thinking of buying a new one but decided to take it to DR Micro instead to see if they could do anything with it. The turn-around time was quick and I'm happy with the results.
Description of Work: They did a complete scrub and added RAM to help the speed.

I have purchased computer parts from Dr. Micro in the past, and always found good information and fair prices, so when an external hard drive I use to store photos and music stopped working, I called them. Dr. Micro staff said they would attempt to recover the data using software for a $40 bench charge. When their methods didn't work, they referred me to a clean room recovery service which uses more drastic and expensive measures to recover the data. Dr. Micro's referral qualified me for a discount on that service. When I picked up the drive, Dr. Micro waived the $40 bench charge I was expecting - a nice surprise. I still haven't decided if the data is worth the cost the clean room recovery service would charge, but Dr. Micro staff was more than fair. Would have given straight A's if they had been successful in recovering the drive, but I will definitely do business with them again.
Description of Work: Dr. Micro attempted to recover data from a dead external hard drive.
