Computer Hope does not have any repair shops. If your computer or computer component needs to be replaced or repaired, refer to the below section that applies to your situation.

Computer is still under warranty

If your computer is still covered under warranty, we recommend you contact the manufacturer of the computer for information on where to take it for repair. Many times the warranty covers the parts and labor for the repair if done through an authorized repair center.

  • Computer manufacturers

Computer component is under warranty but the computer is not

If a component in the computer is under warranty, contact the place of purchase or manufacturer for steps on getting it exchanged or repaired.

  • A computer companies contact information.

How do I know if a component is under warranty?

When purchasing a hardware device, like any other product, it has a warranty for so many days, months, or years. If you have purchased the computer component that is currently failing, the documentation or receipt should indicate how long the warranty is. If you no longer have the documentation or are unsure about the warranty, contact the computer component manufacturer or the place of purchase.

Computer and computer component is out of warranty or has no warranty

If the computer and computer components are no longer in any warranty, you can take your computer to any local computer repair center. If you believe a component in your computer is bad, consider replacing that component with a new component instead of getting it repaired. Many of the components in a computer are not repairable and it is usually cheaper to replace the component.

If the hardware component came pre-installed in your computer, it has the same warranty as the computer.

At this time, Computer Hope does not have a listing of computer repair centers throughout the world. Therefore, we recommend you perform a search for local computer stores and repair centers. If you have a laptop, server, mobile device, or specialized computer, you may want to ensure that the device is serviced by an experienced repair center.
