They are the best and they did a really good job. They were really nice guys. If I had any questions they would work well together to answer them, and they make a good team. I was really impressed with the price of the laptop I bought form them, which was about $400. It took them about a week to correct the issue with the desktop, and I thought it was a good turnaround time. I was really impressed with their customer service and their technology.
Description of Work: I bought a laptop from them and they fixed my desktop. My desktop had a virus that they got rid of.

From my initial call to Computer Concepts to the completion of the work........it was professionalism all the way. They came to my residence to determine if my issues could be corrected without having to take the cpu back to their offices. The employee they sent out was Charles McGovern and I could not have asked for a a nicer or more professional person than he is. They cpu needed to be taken back to their facility and they replaced 2 capacitors on the mother board, I needed a new drive, and they cleaned the interior of the cpu. They ran the necessary tests to determine I had no unknown viruses on the system and returned the system to me on 7/26/ They kept me informed of what issues they found and then Charles went one step further.......he returned my system on a Saturday morning on his own time as he did not want me to be without my system any longer. They warranty their service and I cannot say enough good things about this company and yet again I obtained the services from Angie's List. I would recommend this company for an Honor Roll listing!!!!!!!!! Thanks to Computer Concepts and Angie's List.........no wonder I stay a member!!!!!!
Description of Work: My computer system crashed and needed to be overhauled till I decide what type of system I will purchase next. Computer Concepts "overhauled" the system and corrected the issues which were causing me problems (i.e. cleaned up unnecessary programs, etc.), cleaned the cpu and put it back in excellent working order.

Computer Concepts diagnosed my old laptop, which had suddenly refused to power up. CC determined the hard drive was frazzled and tried to backup the files to my external hard-drive. When I got home with my hard-drive and tried to download it to my brand new computer, I was unable to read the files. I took the external hard-drive and my old laptop's hard-drive back to CC, and they discovered that the old files were so corrupted they hadn't backed up to the external hard drive. Austen managed to do magic with some electronic wizardry in the backroom, pulled off a miracle, and saved all my valuable files to my external hard drive. He apologized for not having succeeded on my first trip, and did all the work on the spot at no additional charge. Austen is awesome to watch at work in his sorcerer's lair. Everyone at this business is friendly, knowledgeable, and eager to do the job right at VERY REASONABLE PRICES. Computer Concepts is an old-fashioned neighborhood shop with intergalactic capabilities.
Description of Work: My old laptop wouldn't power up. Computer Concepts pulled the motherboard, did several diagnostics, and determined the hard drive was shot.

My husband's 2 year old fancy custom computer stopped booting and he got a hard disc error. It had been limping along for months and we couldn't turn it off for fear it wouldn't reboot. Finally it just died. It was out of warranty and the manufacturer didn't want to do anything. He was ready to just send it back so the manufacturer in CA could trouble shoot the problem -- possibly a new motherboard. Big bucks, unknown outcome. Big hassle. Anyway, I checked out "computer repair" on Anglie's List. Computer Concepts is near us and has a great record so the husband brought in the computer to be checked out. Less than a week later it was fixed. No new parts needed just an adjustment/ BIOS update. We are delighted. Its working just fine now. We won't hesitate to use their service again and highly recommend Computer Concepts.

My husband's notes: Tech support contact Robert was a huge help over the phone after I was a complete idiot and downloaded the @#$%ing PC Optimzer Pro software (even paid for it) -- only to find out it is virus/spyware @#$%. After full on panic that my out of the box new Acer Aspire One 756 2808 netbook would need to be purged for $100+, he suggested doing a factory recovery (no removable drive on this thing; so all the necessary software is embedded in a recovery partition) and helped me get to it over the phone. Bam. Die virus/spyware/spam crap. Thanks Robert! If I need real service sometime, I will definitely drop by. Note to anyone who sees this: decrapifier.com (bad) is NOT pcdecrapifier.com (good) BEWARE. And don't pay for it; the good one is free. Oy. Thank god I called them today.
Description of Work: My husband made a a phone call to discuss bringing in his brand new netbook that he had downloaded the evil PC Optimizer Pro virus/spyware onto. Tech contact was able to resolve the issue over the phone.

I brought in a computer to have the hard drive and some RAM installed. When I got home, it didn't work, and I brought it back. They didn't charge anything additional to make the second repair. Their customer service was middle of the road. Neither good or bad. I would possibly use them again.

We actually had two computers fixed by the folks at CC. The first was my laptop, which had a bad hard drive. They diagnosed the issue and called me with a specific and complete estimate of what it would cost to fix, even including the breakdown of parts and labor, and got a clear approval from me before proceeding. They gave me an honest estimate of turnaround time, and had it ready when they said they would! My husband's computer was a little more complex. We were pretty sure the power supply was broken, and they comfirmed that, but when they got things more looked at, they realized that the motherboard was also non-functional. They called and talked with us, again giving us complete information, and even helping us troubleshoot why it happened, asking about our surge protectors, and giving us excellent education/advice on how to avoid that problem in future. I was very pleased with their professionalism and help, and would certainly use this company again.

Each time I used this service, I came to the store, explained my problem, got a written estimate and an approximate completion date. If the repairs exceeded the estimate I was called for approval. They called when it was ready for pickup. No problems with any of the repairs.
Description of Work: It's been several months since I needed this service. Computer Concepts has repaired several of my computers including replacing a fan, adding memory, virus mitigation and general repairs. They also set up my new computer and moved files from the old one. They also set up the router. The employees are polite and very friendly. I was never made to feel like the Luddite I am when it comes to technology. I would recommend them without hesitation.

Computer Concepts quickly trouble shot our desktop computer that wouldn't turn on and repaired it on the spot. We called Computer Concepts on Monday morning morning and informed them of our computing problem. They told us to bring the computer in and they'd help us out. We took the tower in to their business and they performed a diagnostic check while we waited. Within the next twenty minutes, they told us the power supply was bad, had replaced it, cleaned the wonderful dust collection out from the machine and provided us with a small bill for $65. We were on our way with a computer that we thought was a goner!

It took Computer Concepts 2 days to fix my computer. They are very nice people. They are friendly, understanding, explained everything, and were prompt. The price was as estimated, and they added anti-virus software at no charge. My computer is faster, and the anti-virus software they installed works good. They gave me some tips on how to take care of my computer. I would use them again in the future.

They were very helpful and explained everything to me clearly. They also checked with me before making any of the more costly purchases or repairs. In hindsight, I probably could have bought most of a new laptop for the amount of money I spent in the end. No regrets though, because the work was done well and I have a quality laptop at my disposal today.
Description of Work: I brought in a secondhand laptop in desperate need of fixing up. They replaced the battery (which was dead) and the power cord (which was missing). The power jack was also lose so they re-soldered the connection to the motherboard. The hard drive was littered with viruses and spy ware so I had them format the drive and reinstall everything from scratch, including Windows PX and all the basics.

Computer Concepts is great! They're very knowledgeable, honest, helpful and nice. We feel confident taking our computers to them, and would heartily recommend their service!
Description of Work: We've used Computer Concepts for service on our machines several times. Most recently, we brought them both in for service, the laptop was running too slowly and the desktops mouse periodically stopped working. They determined quickly that the laptop needed more RAM, and with my approval, installed it. They were unable to duplicate the problem with the mouse, but after asking us some questions, helped us figure out that a peripheral device was interfering with the mouse's operation.

Both of the men I dealt with at Computer Concepts were professional, polite and very calming! I tend to get pretty worked up about computer issues when they are out of my control. These guys not only reassured me they could fix it, I felt they really put everything else aside to help me out. My computer was in and out of their shop in the same day (about 4 hours, really). I was really impressed!
Description of Work: My computer tower had been making a grinding noise for a few months and then finally made a really bad noise and stopped working! I took it in to Computer Concepts in a panic (I can't live without my computer!) and the fact they could look at it within the hour made me calmer already! They called me an hour later and gave me the diagnosis. Because I had never cleaned my tower, dust had collected and caused the fan to malfunction and then finally it just died! They also recommended I replace two other fans since they were showing damage from the main fan not working, so I agreed (it was cheaper than buying a new computer!).
