Darwin Service

Computer Repair Darwin

Laptop repair, desktop PC repair, business computer repair, motherboard and component-level board repair, data recovery, and ongoing IT support from our Winnellie workshop.

We diagnose and repair laptops, desktops, and small-business workstations — from slow startup and overheating to failed boot, broken charging ports, dead motherboards, and storage failures. Where a repair is sensible we repair; where a board or drive is past safe recovery we say so up front and lay out the replacement path.

Unlike a typical computer shop, we also work at the component level: bad capacitors, blown MOSFETs, BGA reflow candidates, charging-circuit faults, and power-rail problems on the main board. That means more laptops and PCs are recoverable here than at swap-only repairers.

Service scope

Laptops, desktops, business workstations, and the network they sit on.

Laptop & Desktop Repair

Won't boot, blue screen, black screen, or random shutdowns
Slow computer diagnosis — SSD upgrades, RAM upgrades, thermal repaste, fan replacement
Broken charging port, dead battery, failed power adapter circuit
Liquid damage assessment and recovery
Screen, keyboard, and hinge replacement on laptops where parts are available

Motherboard & Component-Level Repair

Laptop and desktop motherboard repair — component-level fault finding, not just board swaps
Power rail and charging-circuit diagnostics, MOSFET and capacitor replacement
Reflow and rework on suspect BGA packages where appropriate
Reverse engineering of damaged sections where schematics are unavailable
Repair-first approach: clear go/no-go advice before further work or replacement

Data, Storage & Recovery

SSD and hard drive diagnostics, cloning, and migration to new storage
Logical data recovery from failing drives, corrupted file systems, and accidental deletion
Windows or Linux reinstall with data preserved where possible
Backup setup so the same data loss doesn't happen twice

Virus, Malware & Software Cleanup

Virus and malware removal, ransomware triage, browser hijack cleanup
Windows performance tune-ups and bloatware removal
Operating system reinstall — Windows 10, Windows 11, macOS, or Linux
Windows-to-Linux migration for older machines that still have life left in them

Business & Office Computers

Small-business workstation repair and replacement, including swap loaners while we work
Email, file share, printer, and Wi-Fi troubleshooting on the same job
Account, drive encryption, and Microsoft 365 / Google Workspace migration support
Documented handover so the next technician can pick up where we left off

Networks, Wi-Fi & Peripherals

Wi-Fi dead spots, slow internet, and dropouts diagnosed end-to-end
Router, switch, and access-point setup for home offices and small businesses
Printer, scanner, and external display setup — including legacy hardware that "just won't connect"
VoIP phones, NVR / CCTV recorders, and other office IT that sits next to the computer

How we work

Clear scope, realistic timelines, no surprise billing.

Drop your computer in to our Winnellie workshop and we'll do a diagnostic and quote before charging for repair work. The initial consultation — by phone or in person at the workshop — is free. If we can't economically repair the machine we'll say so plainly and recommend a sensible replacement or upgrade path. On-site callouts to a home or office are available and charged separately.

For ongoing business IT support beyond a single repair, see IT & Communications. For circuit-board-level repair of industrial controllers, inverters, marine electronics, and embedded devices, see Electronics Repair. For custom software, controllers, and prototype work, see Engineering & R&D.

Consultations

Free consultation by phone or at our Winnellie workshop. On-site callouts are charged separately. The initial consultation is used to confirm the fault, expected effort, and the most appropriate next step before major work begins.

We provide clear scope, timing, and cost expectations before any repair starts.
