Do Some PC Repair and Earn Money


I've been busy these past 5 days repairing few desktops and a netbook. So I got a lot of work to do and of course earn few bucks. Some of the problems I've encountered regarding those desktops pertains to incompatible memory, overheating processor, video card, bad hard disk drive, and does formatting too. Beside, I'm making some sidelines too like LAN installation. In fact, yesterday I got one from our neighborhood.

Well, it's really hard managing my own business because I can't afford yet to hire someone to do the job. Right now, I'm just the one who is making a lot of effort in managing my own business. However, my family is there assisting me anyway.

Regarding those desktop, two of them was already turned over to the owner. The one had a problem with its memory, it doesn't fit into the slot so I replaced it with the right one which is a 128 DDR and format the drive since its been corrupted already. 

The other got a problem with its processor. Its overheating so I applied thermal paste around the processor replacing the old and dried one. Aside from overheating, the built-in graphics is seems not good enough so I suggested the owner to buy another motherboard for him to save more than maintaining the defective one. So I sold him my ASUS motherboard and closed the deal. It's been 3 days from now that I haven't got any feedback from the owner, so I assume that there was no problem so far.

Even at this time, I'm still doing some troubleshooting (regenerating HDD) while making this post. I still got 2 more PC to repair. I hope to finish them this day.

I'm enjoying my job and my life. I still have so many things to learn from my day to day activities in life and just want to share those ideas I learned in computer maintenance..

Thanks! Yes, you can if you want to.

About your laptop, bring it right away if it's still covered by its warranty period. If not, try to diagnose it by yourself if it's really the hard disk. I assume it's not. Maybe the fan is one causing such weird noise. I encountered such kind of noise before in a laptop.

Thanks for dropping by and for joining this site.

Hi Dude,

This is really interesting take on the concept. Computer repair covers a wide variety of services from software installation to fixing keyboards or computing hardware. Thank you very much...

Computers are very unpredictable machines ans as such, they need expert troubleshooting and repair so that it can go back to its normal state and spare the user from further computer problems.

It is a good way to learn from your experience and if you are doing a job somewhere you need to work with multiple tasks it is a great way to learn and what can I say is the only best way to learn the things. Laptop and PC repair is a hard thing to do because if you do not have the best equipment with you like BGA machines and rework station but if you have it you will do it very nicely.
