In-shop repair and data work, a short drive south
Hartford City is outside our on-site travel area, but it is a straightforward drive to the shop, and the work available once a device is on the bench is the full range: diagnostics, hardware repair, cleaning, basic data recovery, upgrades, and custom builds.
Data work is the reason a lot of people make this particular trip. A drive that has stopped mounting, a computer that will not boot with years of photos on it, a laptop that took a knock — all of that needs to be handled in person, and it needs to be handled before anyone keeps using the device, because continued use can make recovery harder.
Call first regardless. It costs nothing, it confirms we handle your device, and it tells you exactly what to bring so the trip only happens once.
What Hartford City customers come in for
Every one of these is bench work at the Muncie shop.
Photos and documents on a failing drive
Stop using the device and bring it in. Basic recovery attempts carry no fee if nothing is recovered.
Computers that will not boot
Isolated to power, storage, memory, or board before a quote is written.
Slow and freezing machines
Usually storage or heat. Often much cheaper to fix than to replace.

Removed, with a plain explanation of what let it in.
Cleaning and thermal service
