03 / DIAGNOSE

Diagnostics & Troubleshooting

Machine won't boot, blue-screening, overheating, or behaving strangely? Full hardware diagnostics, identify the failing component, and a written quote before any repair begins. Diagnostic fee is waived if you proceed with the repair.

RM 40
WAIVED IF REPAIR PROCEEDS
04 / RECOVERY

Data Recovery & Backup

Deleted files, corrupted partitions, or a failing hard drive with irreplaceable photos and documents. Recovery success depends on drive condition — assessed first, only charged if data is recovered. No recovery, no charge.

RM 120
NO RECOVERY · NO CHARGE
05 / CLEAN

Thermal Repaste & Cleaning

Laptop overheating, fans loud, throttling under load? Strip the machine, clean out dust, apply fresh thermal paste (Arctic MX-6 or equivalent), verify temperatures under load before returning. Desktops add RM 30 for full strip-down.

RM 90
LAPTOPS · DESKTOPS +RM 30
§ 02 — Upgrade Path

Most slow machines don't need replacing. They need two parts and an hour of careful work.

RAM Upgrade

Going from 8GB to 16GB or 32GB is the single most noticeable upgrade for a slow machine. I source DDR4 / DDR5 desktop DIMMs or laptop SODIMMs from Kingston, Crucial, or Corsair — whatever your board prefers.

8GB DDR4 laptop SODIMM+RM 90
16GB DDR4 laptop SODIMM+RM 160
16GB DDR4 desktop DIMM+RM 150
32GB DDR4 desktop DIMM+RM 280
16GB DDR5 desktop DIMM+RM 220
32GB DDR5 desktop DIMM+RM 380

Labour included. Parts price fluctuates — confirmed at quotation.

B / STORAGE

Storage Upgrade (SSD)

Replacing an old hard disk with an SSD — or adding a larger NVMe — is the other half of the speed equation. I clone your existing Windows installation to the new drive so nothing needs to be reinstalled. Boot times drop from minutes to seconds.

500GB NVMe SSD+RM 180
1TB NVMe SSD+RM 280
2TB NVMe SSD+RM 480
1TB SATA SSD (2.5")+RM 240
2TB SATA SSD (2.5")+RM 420
4TB NVMe SSD+RM 880

Labour + data cloning included.

NOTE

A combined RAM + SSD upgrade starts at RM 150 labour, plus parts. Most laptops leave here running better than the day they were bought.

§ 03 — How It Works

Five steps, no surprises. You always know what is happening to your machine.

01

WhatsApp or Call

Message me on WhatsApp with your machine model and the issue. I'll give you an indicative quote and arrange pickup, meetup, or onsite — whichever suits your location in or around Kota Damansara.

02

Diagnostic

I run hardware diagnostics — drive health, memory test, thermal log, boot trace — and write up a job sheet with the root cause and recommended fix. You receive a photo of the job sheet via WhatsApp.

03

Quotation & Approval

Fixed-price quotation sent: labour, parts, turnaround time. Nothing happens until you approve. If you decline, you pay only the diagnostic fee — or nothing, if it's a format or upgrade job.

04

Repair

The work itself. For formats and upgrades, usually same day or next day. Anti-static mat, logged part serial numbers, before-and-after photos of the inside of your machine.

05

Return

I deliver the machine back to you in Kota Damansara (free) or nearby areas, or we meet at Sunway Giza / Surian MRT. You test it on the spot. Cash, QRPay, or bank transfer. 30-day return warranty on labour.

§ 04 — Client Reviews

What clients in Kota Damansara and across PJ have said after the job.

"My Acer Swift was blue-screening every other hour. Picked it up from my condo in Tropicana, formatted and cleaned, returned same evening. Boot time went from two minutes to twelve seconds."

FARIDAH R. — TROPICANA · FORMAT RM 80

"Added 16GB RAM and a 1TB SSD to my 2019 Lenovo ThinkPad. I was ready to throw it out and buy a new one. Now it runs faster than my colleague's brand-new Dell. RM 430 total, no upsell."

KENNY L. — BANDAR UTAMA · RAM + SSD UPGRADE

"Dropped my 2TB external hard drive and lost five years of family photos — wedding, kids, everything. Recovered all of it within two days. RM 120 was the best money I've ever spent."

SITI AMINAH — KOTA DAMANSARA · DATA RECOVERY

"Came to my office in Mutiara Damansara to fix three workstations that wouldn't connect to the network. Onsite fee was reasonable, finished in under two hours, proper job sheet emailed after."

RAJESH K. — MUTIARA DAMANSARA · ONSITE REPAIR

"Asus ROG was hitting 95°C and throttling during gaming. Repaste and full clean for RM 90. Temps now max out at 78°C. Should have done this a year ago."

HAFIZ M. — DAMANSARA PERDANA · THERMAL REPASTE

"Honest guy. Told me my 2013 HP Pavilion wasn't worth upgrading and to save my money. Didn't charge for the diagnostic. Came back two weeks later with my wife's laptop for a format."

§ 06 — Questions

Things people ask before messaging.

Do you have a shop I can walk into?

No, I work freelance from Kota Damansara — no walk-in shop. Free pickup within Kota Damansara, or we can meet at Sunway Giza / Surian MRT. Onsite service is available for homes and offices across PJ.

How much is onsite service?

Free pickup within Kota Damansara. Onsite to nearby areas like Mutiara Damansara, Bandar Utama, and Tropicana starts at RM 20. Further areas like SS2, Kelana Jaya, or KL are quoted based on distance. WhatsApp your location for a fixed quote.

How long does a Windows format take?

Usually 3 to 4 hours. If you arrange pickup in the morning, it is often returned the same evening. I WhatsApp you when it's ready.

Will formatting delete my files?

Yes — a format wipes the C: drive completely. Add RM 30 for backup and I'll restore your documents, photos, and downloads after reinstall.

Can you fix a laptop that won't turn on?

Yes, I diagnose hardware-level failures like dead motherboards, broken charging ports, or short circuits. If the repair cost outweighs the laptop's value, I will tell you honestly so you only pay the diagnostic fee.

Can you upgrade a 5-year-old laptop?

Usually yes. Most laptops from 2018 onwards accept a RAM and SSD upgrade and run Windows 11 comfortably. I'll tell you honestly if it's not worth fixing.

Is there a warranty on the repair?

30-day return warranty on all labour. Parts (RAM, SSD) carry the manufacturer's warranty — typically 3 to 5 years — which I handle the RMA for you.

What payment methods do you accept?

Cash, QRPay (DuitNow), and bank transfer. Payment is due on delivery or completion of onsite work.
