1 How It's Performed

When a component genuinely needs swapping rather than repairing, our technicians start with component-level diagnosis under a microscope — checking power rails, shorted capacitors, and damaged ICs with a multimeter and thermal camera — before any chip-level soldering work begins, since a wrong first guess on a board-level repair can turn a fixable fault into a dead board.

Typical time: 2–24 hours depending on fault complexity

2 What This Requires

• Backup of accessible data before any board-level work begins, since repairs at this level occasionally require data to be migrated to a new board or drive.
• Clear communication on repair-vs-replace economics — on older or heavily damaged boards, a full replacement is sometimes genuinely more cost-effective than chip-level repair.

3 When You Need This

• The laptop or PC shows no signs of life at all — no lights, no fans, no POST beep — after ruling out the charger/power supply itself.
• Random shutdowns, freezes, or black screens that happen regardless of what software is running.
• A visible burn mark, swollen capacitor, or liquid-damage residue on the board.
