Netbook hardware repair


Odense

Recommended Posts

Which shop (probably in Tuk.com) would you recommend for fixing a Netbook PC (running Ubuntu Linux but shouldn't matter since it is a HW problem) ?

Pattaya 2 U, third floor Tukcom, far right corner, along the back wall of the buidling. You'll know it by the large number of staff and customers. I used them just last week. They even greet you with a cold Coke and will tell you if the repairs are unnecessary instead of just trying to get your money.

What he said :) . I have used them on several occasions and have found them to be fast, knowlegable and well priced.

Thanks guys.

I went to Pattaya2U and they WERE very busy as predicted. After a quick glance they would not touch the netbook because it was still under warranty. The did refer me to a shop called SPK on the same floor.

 

After listening to the fan (not at its loudest then) they also recommended to leave it to Lenovo. They confirmed I had worldwide warranty - but also that a repair in the Lenovo workshop in Bangkok would probablt take a least a month. (and I am not in Thailand that long). They were willing to clean it for 1500 thb - but would not promise that was going to help).

 

I decided to try to live with the noise - and hand it in to Lenovo when I get back home.

Noisy fan means there is dust buildup or you have bad bearings if your fan....

 

You could purchase a laptop usb cooler that will assist your fan in cooling....

 

My laptop ran fine at home and it was only when I got to thailand that it began getting noisy... This was due to excessive heat... a USB laptop cooler and things got quieter...

 

At 200 bt, its worth buying, because even if you laptop is running 100% and not noisy, heat dissipation is vital in this climate and will preserve things longer....

Thailand Airsoft The website is for sale. I am starting up a new Bitcoin project and need development funds... The Airsoft Site is being sold for 800,000 THB
