How we fix your Dell Studio 1458
Using schematics, a microscope and test equipment, we trace the fault to the failed part, whether that's a MOSFET, capacitor, fuse, power controller or connector.
We replace it with a matching part, test the board under load and check everything works before you collect your Dell Studio 1458.
How long it takes
How long a component repair takes depends on the parts needed. We confirm the timescale with your quote before starting.
Good to know: If your laptop died after a spill, don't keep trying to switch it on. Power running through a wet board causes more damage.

Common questions
Why not just replace the motherboard?
Replacement boards for many models are expensive or no longer made. Component repair keeps your original board working at a lower cost.
Can every board be repaired?
Most boards can be repaired. If yours is too badly damaged, we'll tell you and quote for a replacement board instead.
