Have you got a repair issue with an Aspire, Ferrari and TravelMate? The standard warranty for Acer parts is 12 months and before you know it, it's out of warrantee. Here's where we come in.

Computer Mechanics do out of warrantee repairs for Acer at our workshop in East Perth. In fact, only a very small number of computer repair workshops do notebook repairs in Perth.

That's because laptop hardware repairs require specialist knowledge and experience. There's not much space left after your hard disk drive, motherboard and battery. Lots of repair businesses won't touch them, but we've developed some specialist knowledge and we fit parts locally in our East Perth workshop.

If you're sure the job is to install a new part, say a hard disk, a graphics card or a memory upgrade you can drop it into the workshop. If it's unknown whether it's software or hardware, it might be better if we attend on site. Sometimes the problem can be fixed on the spot.

Compared to sending a laptop back to Acer, you'll get a very fast turnaround with Computer Mechanics. You will save weeks rather than days. And you'll probably save a tidy sum of money.

Screen problems are common with all laptops, but if you have an issue with an Acer Netbook or Notebook, we can get the replacement display from their Sydney office and we don't have the long lead time on labour that the manufacturers all have.

Laptop batteries, power supplies and adapters are common replacement parts. Power cables and connectors frequently break off; they're also a quick fix. Fiddly bits a specialty.

If you're in the ugly situation where you've lost data, Computer Mechanics will give you very good information about your chances of successfully recovering data. They have heaps of experience in data recovery.

We've seen problems with the Acer DVD drives but of course these are replaceable.

We're happy to quote and for Acer parts replacements your cost estimate will be reliable. Where the repair involves troubleshooting a problem we may need to quote you a range, depending on how much time is involved. The good news is that for HPs and Compaqs, parts turnaround is pretty quick.

Overheating is a potential issue for all Acers; TravelMate, Ferrari and Aspire. Worth getting it properly cleaned internally when you bring it in to us. It should be done once a year properly. If the cooling system is not working well you'll need to replace your computer years before you ought to.
