Walk-ins are available for many services. If you have an uncommon device, specialty repair, or a model that may require a particular replacement part, contacting the shop beforehand is recommended.
Can you fix a McHenry customer’s slow computer?
Yes. Slow performance can be caused by failing storage, insufficient RAM, malware, overheating, software problems, or aging hardware. We can diagnose the computer and determine whether repair or an upgrade is practical.
Can you repair a computer that won’t turn on?
Yes. A no-power or no-boot problem can involve the charger, battery, power supply, motherboard, storage device, display, or operating system. A diagnostic evaluation can help determine the source.
Can you upgrade an older laptop?
Depending on the model, an SSD, RAM, battery, or other compatible component may be upgradeable. We can evaluate the computer and explain which upgrades are supported.
Can you recover files from a failed hard drive?
We can evaluate supported storage devices and computers for data-recovery possibilities. Recovery depends on the type and severity of the failure, so no specific recovery result can be guaranteed before examination.
How quickly can you repair an iPhone screen?
Many common phone repairs may be completed the same day when the necessary part is available. Actual turnaround depends on the phone model, repair type, parts availability, and current workload.
Do you repair Samsung Galaxy and Google Pixel phones?
Yes. Supported Samsung Galaxy, Google Pixel, Motorola, OnePlus, and other Android phones can be evaluated for screen, battery, charging, camera, audio, button, and software problems.
What should I do if my phone gets wet?
Turn it off if possible and avoid charging it or repeatedly attempting to power it on. Bring it in for evaluation as soon as practical because liquid can continue damaging internal components.
Can you repair a cracked iPad?
We can evaluate supported iPad models for cracked screens, display problems, and touchscreen failures. Availability depends on the exact model and replacement-part availability.
Do you work on Samsung Galaxy tablets?
Yes, supported Samsung Galaxy Tab models can be evaluated for screen, battery, charging, power, software, and other hardware problems.
Can you repair a PS5 with no picture?
Yes. We can diagnose supported PS5 systems with HDMI, video-output, power, overheating, and other hardware problems.
Do you repair Nintendo Switch systems?

How long do game console repairs take?
Turnaround depends on the console and the type of repair. Some common repairs may be completed within one to two business days when the required parts are available. HDMI, motherboard, liquid-damage, and special-order repairs may take longer.

Yes. McHenry businesses and home-office customers can bring supported computers and other devices to the Crystal Lake location for troubleshooting, upgrades, hardware repair, software problems, and data-related services.
Are diagnostics free?
