Acer Repair London

Repair IT Networks are the primary independent UK laptop repair facility for out-of-warranty Acer Aspire, Travelmate and Ferrari laptops. We can obtain most Acer laptop components hence our laptop repairs are quick, professional and dependable. Most repairs are finished within three days. Our technicians have over twenty years know-how in computer maintenance and have received specialist training from manufacturers like Amstrad. We have also maintained desktops and laptops for some of the principal corporate companies in the UK.

Repairs we perform:

• TravelMate 8100 Motherboard
  The computer won't switch on or will crash intermittently. This type of failure can be caused by poor solder joints on the Acer systemboard. Certain video problems also require a motherboard repair as most video chips are soldered onto the mother board. Very few laptops have separate video cards. Our engineers perform component level repairs on Acer motherboards. We can replace diodes, resistors, transistors and also perform repairs on major chips within your system. A lot of system board failures are caused by the board flexing when the laptop is moved. A combination of expansion due to heat and flexing of the board can weaken the solder joints. See our motherboard repair guide. Our technicians have many years of experience and know how to fix most systemboard faults.
   
  
  

• TravelMate 8100 Power Socket
  The laptop fails to turn on and the battery does not charge. We repair or replace power jack sockets where the power pin has broken or has become detached from the systemboard. The work is time consuming as the motherboard needs to be separated from the system to complete the repair. In some cases the power connector makes a poor connection with the TravelMate 8100 jack. This causes arcing which can generate enough temperature to melt the TravelMate 8100 dc jack and the power pin may become lose.
  
  

• TravelMate 8100 Backlight & Inverter
  The laptop switches on but the screen remains dark. In some cases a faint image is visible on the screen. This problem can be caused by a faulty fluorescent light, inverter, video cable or a problem on the motherboard. Special equipment is required to determine the exact cause of the fault. Backlights use very high voltages and it is easy to cause more damage to the system if they are not correctly handled and installed. Our engineers can replace the backlight lamps in most TFT/LCD screens. We also have access to most backlight inverters and cables. We can also perform repairs on some very rare inverters. It is very easy to destroy an expensive LCD/TFT when removing/installing the CCFL. Our engineers are trained using broken LCD panels before they can work on a customer's LCD/TFT unit.
  
  

• TravelMate 8100 Keyboard & Touchpad
  Keyboards are mostly damaged by liquid spills and general wear. We can supply or install keyboards for most Acer laptops. We also repair keyboard connectors on the  system board. Component failure on the motherboard can also result in keyboard/touchpad failures.
  
  

• TravelMate 8100 Fan and Heatsink
  We can install replacement fans and heat sink parts for most laptops. In cases where the original fan is not available, we can install substitute fans which will be equivalent or surpass the performance of the original fan.
  
  

• TravelMate 8100 LCD Screen
  We supply original and compatible replacement screens for most laptops. In some cases only refurbished screens are available. We don't charge extra for installing and testing screens. 
  
  

• TravelMate 8100 Hinges
  Some Acer laptops can have a problem with the hinge becoming tight. It becomes difficult to open and close the laptop. This may cause the lid to crack.
  
  

• TravelMate 8100 CD/DVD and floppy drives
  Our engineers can repair or replace these drives. We have a lot of drives in stock and the work can be carried out very quickly. 
  

• TravelMate 8100 Speakers 
  In most cases these are damaged by liquid spills, dust or loud music - playing heavy metal music from bands like Motorhead will kill most laptop speakers, but can be great fun while they last.
  
  

• TravelMate 8100 Hard Drive
  Faulty hard drives can cause data loss and stop your laptop from booting into Windows. We can replace faulty hard drive and attempt to recover your data. After installing the new drive, our engineers perform a thorough disk test to ensure that your data is as secure as possible.
  
  

• TravelMate 8100 Power Adapters
  The easiest way to diagnose an adapter fault is to try another adapter. We stock a vast range of new and used power adapters - bring your laptop to our workshop and we'll help you establish if your power supply is really fault.
  
  

• TravelMate 8100 Software and Drivers Repair
  Viruses and improper shutdowns can lead to the Windows XP operating system or the file system becoming corrupted. We can recover your data and install a new operating system or drivers to avoid crashes. We can also recover your data from totally dead or unusable TravelMate 8100 computers.
