What Is the Most Common PC Issue?Based on our repair data at Xigox, the top 5 most common PC problems are:
- Slow performance / hanging (35% of cases) — usually caused by a failing hard drive, insufficient RAM, or malware buildup. Fix: SSD upgrade + malware removal (₹1,999–₹2,999)
- PC won't turn on (20%) — power supply failure, dead motherboard, or loose connections. Diagnosis: ₹350
- Blue Screen of Death / BSOD (15%) — driver conflicts, failing RAM, or overheating. Fix: ₹499–₹1,999
- Overheating and auto-shutdown (12%) — dust buildup, dried thermal paste. Fix: deep cleaning ₹499–₹799
- No display output (8%) — GPU failure, loose cable, or monitor issue. Fix: ₹500–₹3,000
Before calling a professional, try these basic troubleshooting steps:
- Restart your PC — solves about 30% of all issues
- Check all cable connections — power cord, display cable, RAM sticks, storage cables
- Listen for beep codes — different beep patterns indicate specific hardware failures
- Boot into Safe Mode — if it works in Safe Mode, the issue is software/driver-related
- Run built-in diagnostics — chkdsk for disk health, sfc /scannow for system files
- Monitor temperatures — use HWMonitor to check if CPU/GPU is overheating

What Is the Average Cost to Fix a PC?The average desktop computer repair cost in India ranges from ₹500 to ₹5,000 for most common issues. At Xigox, our average repair bill per customer is ₹2,000–₹3,000 (including parts and labour).
Compare this to a new desktop PC (₹25,000–₹60,000+) and repair makes financial sense in virtually every scenario where only 1–2 components need attention.
Can Old Computers Be Repaired?Yes! Desktop computers have a huge advantage over laptops when it comes to repairability — they're modular by design. You can swap individual components (CPU, RAM, GPU, storage, PSU) without replacing the whole system.
At Xigox, we regularly breathe new life into 8–12+ year old desktops with these cost-effective upgrades:
- SSD installation (₹1,999) — transforms boot and load times dramatically
- RAM upgrade (₹500–₹3,000) — eliminates freezing during multitasking
- Fresh Windows install (₹799) — removes years of accumulated junk
- Deep cleaning + thermal paste (₹499) — fixes overheating, extends component life
Total investment: ₹3,000–₹6,000. Result: an old PC that handles everyday tasks as well as a new ₹25,000 budget desktop.
How Much Does Motherboard Repair Cost?Motherboard repair is the most complex — and potentially expensive — PC repair. The cost depends on the approach:
- Chip-level repair (reflowing, reballing, capacitor replacement): ₹2,000–₹8,000 at Xigox
- Full motherboard replacement (desktop): ₹3,000–₹10,000 depending on socket type
- Full motherboard replacement (laptop): ₹5,000–₹15,000+ depending on model
At Xigox, we specialize in chip-level motherboard repair — which uses microsoldering techniques to fix the specific failed component on the board rather than replacing the entire board. This saves 40–60% compared to full replacement and comes with a 90-day warranty.
