Repairing older Dell desktops
Dell towers use some proprietary power supplies and motherboard layouts, so a dead power supply needs the correct Dell part rather than a generic; we stock the common ones. OptiPlex machines from offices come in by the dozen for SSD upgrades and cleanups. Inspiron all-in-ones have glued screens like an iMac. Alienware Aurora needs thermal and fan service.
Models covered
Inspiron, XPS, OptiPlex, Precision, Vostro and Alienware Aurora desktops and all-in-ones. If yours is not named here, bring it in anyway; if it has a circuit board, we work on it.
What usually fails at this age
Batteries first: anything more than two years old that will not hold a charge, shuts off early or has started to swell needs a new cell. Then hinges, ports and drives, all of which are quick, inexpensive repairs on older desktops. Screens for the common models are stocked; the rest are ordered.
Turnaround
Same day on stocked parts, 3 to 5 business days when ordered. We check parts availability and give you the price before you commit.
