Chris Taylor first transferred my hard drive to a new container, making it an external hard drive, and agreed to recycle the remnants of my laptop. On my drive home, he called, saying that the laptop was working, and that I should bring the hard drive back. He then determined that the hard drive had faulty sectors, which was keeping the laptop from powering on. He installed a new (better) hard drive, transferred the old hard drive to it and now it's working better than ever. He even offered to be available by phone to walk me through any connection issues that might arise. He was polite, attentive, efficient, and did his best to keep my costs down.
Description of Work: A laptop containing a lot of precious data (photos, recipes) was no longer functioning--wouldn't even power up. I needed at the very least to retrieve the data on my computer.

It turns out that the there are multiple versions of the Lenovo Yoga laptop/tablet, each of which has slightly and not interchangeable parts. On the advice of Chapline Computers in Chestnut Hill, I had bought what I thought were the correct parts on eBay because Lenovo didn't stock the parts, only to be told by a different person at Chapline that the parts were useless. Chris tried to get the correct parts but was unable to find ones that would work with my daughter's hard drive, so he told me that he couldn't fix her computer. He suggested transferring her programs and files to another laptop and recommended, at my request, some comparable 2 in 1 computers which were less expensive that another Yoga. I appreciated his texts, keeping me updated about his lack of progress in fixing the computer. I also appreciated his willingness to suggest an alternate and faster solution to getting my daughter a working computer when the job he had been asked to do became too time consuming and probably very difficult to accomplish. Ultimately, he charged for a protective case in which to return the hard drive and (I suspect) only a portion of his time. I would definitely use him again if another family member's computer stopped working properly.
Description of Work: Chris Taylor offered to replace the keyboard and the case on my daughter's 2 in 1 convertible computer.

It went extremely well. The entire process was less than one day, and my laptop has never worked better.
Description of Work: My laptop was running very slow. Also, somehow a restriction was added that blocked me from many of my personal sites. I dropped off the laptop to Chris on 8/20/12 and it was ready for pickup the next morning. My laptop has never run better, and the price was very reasonable.

Great experience. I went to the website and emailed what problems I was having and what I was looking to have done. They emailed back the next day with pricing, options, and availability. I chose to have him fix it remotely. We agreed upon a time and he called promptly at the stated time. An hour later, my computer was updated and running much better.
Description of Work: My laptop computer was running very slowly and I was having trouble running several programs. I called to have my computer "cleaned up" and "protected". The work was done remotely while on the phone. Chris called on time at the agreed upon time and took an hour to do all the work needed. Specifically, He cleaned up multiple back ups to C drive, Reconfigured external drive to sync and back up, updated video card, installed defragment program, fixed Itunes start up.

Great job and very knowledgeable.
Description of Work: Had wireless connection issues and Chris responded the same day contacted. He diagnosed the problem within minutes and made the proper fixes. He also set up all our printers to print wirelessly. (Something we had tried and failed to accomplish.) Lastly, he installed software to my son's computer so that we could monitor his activity (son was not pleased!).

I called Chris Taylor on Tuesday morning 8/23/11. He returned my call within 4 hours FROM HIS VACATION, listened to my and quot;story,and quot; and told us we would hear from his associate. Jeremy Varnis called within 4 hours and set up an appointment for the NEXT day. He arrived early, did both installations, and talked with us about what he had done. You can bet that we will be calling them again and will refer them to anyone who asks. Kathleen

Chris arrived at the agreed upon time and took the two PC's. He called promptly with his diagnosis. I decided to purchase a new laptop. Chris returned the operational after I had the new laptop so that he could set up the new laptop and the repaired tower. All done within the aggreed upon time and cost.
Description of Work: I had 2 PC's that were not working. Chris picked up the CPU's, evaluated the problem(s) with each and called me to discuss the course of action and cost. One had a fried hard drive and the other a bad power supply. Chris retrieved the data from the fried hard drive transferred the data to a new drive. I decided to get rid of the older PC. Programs and data were transferred to the remaining PC. Chris also advised me regarding the purchase and installation of a wireless router and the use of Dropbox for sharing files among multiple PC's.

Chris Taylor was great to work with. He returned my initial viocemail promptly and was able to take my computer for repairs (removing viruses and other malware) quickly. He took time and did a great job, giving me sage advice in the process.Chris was able to explain what he was doing in understandable terms. My computer was ready in two days (it could have been one day, but we agreed to his performing additional work on the computer). Chris stayed in touch throughout the process. Bottom line: great service at a great price. I will be using his services, again!

We were having trouble with our small office network. It grew organically and had been cobbled together with very little forethought or planning. We had Macs and Dells and HPs and wireless and hardwired and a VOIP line all on the same system. Nothing worked well - individually or together - it was a constant source of frustrations. Chris came in and straightened it all out with very little guidance beyond "HELP"! We are very grateful for his patience, demeanor, stick-to-it-ness and willingness to dive in and get it fixed - weather that involves calling our providers and talking tech with them so the right questions get asked or climbing thru the ceiling to run necessary wires. He was absolutely wonderful and I would recommend him to anyone with computer issues!

Wonderfully! He called at Noon Saturday as he said he would, hooked up the remote, and talked soothingly to me as he fixed all sorts of junk and craziness in my computer and printer. It's fixed! It's like a new computer. Actually it's better because it came preloaded with all sorts of junk programs I didn't want that slowed things down.
Description of Work: He reorganized my laptop for 45 minutes by remote control from his office/apartment. Most amazing thing.

Quickly responded to service call, called to advise he would be 15 min late and came at revised time. Diagnosed problem in seconds. Carefully spelled out improvement options including amount of improvement that could be expected and cost to implement. We agreed to double memory of computer and he spent about 1/2 hour driving to Microcenter to buy the part. After installing the part spent another 20 minutes with me cleaning up things that were sapping memory, downloading more efficient software, etc. The computer now performs better than it ever did. The service call was $65 plus $42.50 for the chip set. This was the best experience I have had from a service professional that I can remember! The price was an incredible value.
Description of Work: Computer was running slow and would not respond to the easy remedies. Chris diagnosed the problem as insufficient memory, went to Microcenter to purchase additional memory chip set, installed the chip set and made various software improvements and recommendations to reduce memory requirements.
