Computer Repair Services We Offer
Virus & Malware Removal
Deep malware removal beyond basic antivirus scans. We isolate threats, clean startup entries, repair system damage, and verify OS stability. Includes security review to prevent reinfection. See Microsoft’s malware protection guide for preventive tips.
SSD, RAM & Hardware Upgrades
SSD migrations, RAM upgrades, GPU replacements, and storage expansions for workstations and gaming PCs. An SSD upgrade is often the single best value improvement for office systems. We benchmark before and after so you see exact gains.
Data Recovery
We recover documents, photos, project files, and business data from failing hard drives, SSDs, and corrupted operating systems. Recovery viability check first so you understand expected outcomes before approving work.
Motherboard & Component Repair
Diagnosing power-delivery faults, memory channel instability, connector damage, and failed onboard components. Honest recommendation between repair, board replacement, or full system upgrade.
Power Supply & No-Power Issues
PSU output testing, board rail checks, front-panel switches, and cable integrity diagnosis. Replacing a failing power supply often restores full stability without replacing the entire system.

Frequently Asked Questions About Computer Repair
How much should I pay for computer repair?
Computer repair at Gadget Medics in Boca Raton starts at $89 for software issues like virus removal and tune-ups, and ranges up to $699 or more for complex hardware repairs and data recovery. The exact price depends on your system type and the problem. We provide a free diagnostic and written estimate before any work begins. We also guarantee to beat any local competitor’s price by $10.
Who is better than Geek Squad for computer repair?
Independent repair shops typically offer faster turnaround, lower prices, and more personalized service than Geek Squad. At our Boca Raton locations, we provide free diagnostics (Geek Squad charges $50+), same-day service on most repairs, and a $10 price-beat guarantee. Our free Broken Club program includes lifetime warranty on all hardware repairs, compared to Geek Squad’s 30-90 day coverage or $199/year TotalTech membership.
Is a 10 year old computer worth fixing?
It depends on the repair cost versus what you use the computer for. We follow a 50% rule: if repair cost exceeds half the price of a comparable replacement, we recommend buying new. A 10-year-old computer with a simple failing hard drive may be worth a $99-$119 SSD upgrade that dramatically improves performance. But if the motherboard is failing and parts are obsolete, replacement makes more sense. Our free diagnostic at either Boca Raton location gives you a clear answer.
How much does Geek Squad charge to fix a computer?
Geek Squad typically charges $99 to $400 for computer repairs, plus a separate diagnostic fee. Their TotalTech membership is $199 per year for unlimited support. At Gadget Medics, diagnostics are always free, repairs start at $89, and we beat any local competitor’s price by $10. Our free Broken Club membership provides lifetime warranty, which offers better long-term value than annual subscription plans.

We provide a realistic timeline during your free diagnostic and keep you updated if anything changes.
