The motherboard he chose did not support digital speakers. I lived with it. Now years later I want to upgrade to Windows 11 and can't because the system doesn't support TPM 2.0 When I contacted Raven I was told that the owner was retiring soon and I should call Madison Computer Works or Tech Heroes. I think you should take the advice of Raven and go elsewhere.

In addition, I have contacted Ravens Computer several times by phone with laptop issues. Whenever possible, they have resolved the issues by FREELY advsing me over the phone what to do on several occassions, saving me money. I continue to use the Cleaner, Malware, and Virus Protection programs that Ravens originally put on my laptop which maintains excellent processing speed, especially for an older machine. Nathan G

The computer was ready to pick up within 36 hours and works great. No more annoying stoppages and popups. I had a coupon from the Bucky Book, so it cost $79. Be aware that they have moved to 6025 Odana Rd, next to the Social Security building.
Description of Work: My computer was running really slow, with a lot of error messages, and I was unable to use my preferred browser. I took it in to see what was wrong and to have it fixed. Steve cleaned it up and installed a new browser and updated the virus and spyware.

My PC wouldn't start up properly, so I took it to Raven Computers for a look-see. Steve Raven called back within the day indicating that the power supply was shot, and gave a quote for a new one. I picked it up the next day and everything is back to normal. I can't say enough about Raven Computers. Last year they rebuilt my PC, installing a new operating system and more powerful graphics card. They are prompt, professional, and always recommend fixes that won't bust the bank, or do as many other computer shops do, simply recommend that you buy an expensive and totally unnecessary new system.

I usually build my own systems, but my company needed ten computers built quickly, so I had to bring the component parts to someone else and let them do the work. Bottom line: the quality of their work was superb. Installation was as good or better than I would have done. The cabling was neat, all the left-over parts were returned, and they inventoried all the component serial numbers. What really impressed me was that they were also meticulous about making sure that all the drivers and utilities were up-to-date. They checked to make sure that they had the latest motherboard bios, and went through the bios setting to be sure that everything was set optimally. They were not only very courteous, knowledgeable, professional and punctual, but they really had fun talking about the build. It's clear that they like what they do. One last observation concerned the nice way they treated other customers who came in while I was in their store (and there was quite a number of them). I especially liked the fact that with older customers, they were patient and kind. That made an especially good impression on me. Finally, as of this writing, I note that they also have an A+ rating with the Better Business Bureau. Highly recommended.
