Facing a failing hard drive, I urgently needed a replacement without losing my valuable data. Dave's Computers efficiently transferred all my data to an external drive, ensuring not a single piece was lost. Their team meticulously explained each step and remarkably completed the task faster than their estimated timeframe. Their expertise and swift service were truly commendable.

Very friendly and professional. When I first visited they told me they would be closed for a week and would I like to go to another store. I continued with them, the new battery came in and they replaced it before they went away. Turned out they my diagnosis was wrong, the battery was discharging for another reason. They took the computer in, trouble shooted the machine for a week, made several adjustments and I picked up the machine. The machine is performing very well. There was no added charge for considerable additional work. Highly recommend.

I came here in desperation after the Apple Store told me my 3 year old MacBook was toast and that they would send it off to replace all the components for $575. Apple told me that the computer passed the diagnostics and they tried re-installing the OS but nothing was working. The guy who helped me at Dave's Computers was calm, pleasant and honest. He first noted that Apple had returned the laptop to me COMPLETELY DEAD/NOT CHARGED.

The next day, he calls and tells me it's FIXED! He had charged the Macbook and reinstalled the OS. Reasonable prices, and nice honest people. I will definitely come here next time before going to the Apple Store again.!

Replaced the hard drives on two of my Mac computers. The Mac computers are now faster than when I first bought them-the speed is life changing. I essentially have two new computers and saved thousands of dollars by not having to buy new ones. The work on both computers was completed within days of them being dropped. No hassles.

I needed to share this experience after a friend told me what happened. While I am not one to write reviews and kill small businesses, I wanted to share that after purchasing a new charger my friend's computer is running just fine. A difference of $25 vs $300 charge for the repairs they stated my computer required in order to get it operating is quite shocking. Perhaps it was a faulty diagnosis on your end, however, my hope is simply that you conduct business in an ethical manner and hold your business to a higher standard in the future.

Critical: Value Ended up paying 278 dollars and all they did was put a new fan in 15 dollars and a new ssd 500 gb 90$ and then tell me one ram slot on the mobo is failing. Very over priced feel ripped off. Said the 149 dollar diognostics fee would go towards work that had to be done but still go charged and additional 138 at pick up

Dave's Computers is terrific! I have an old Toshiba Qosmio that I depend on but, for the last several years, it has run extremely and painfully slow. I expected Dave's to tell me the laptop was just too old. NO!. They diagnosed and repaired the problem. Apparently my hard drive would not pass their diagnostic testing. I needed a new hard drive. They replaced it and successfully transferred all my programs, etc. that was on the old drive. Thank you, "Dave's"! It's running beautifully and is a pleasure to use again.

Since my hard drive was failing, I needed to replace it without losing my data. Dave's Computers was easily able to move that data to an external drive and to ensure that I got every piece of data. They explained every step and got the work done faster than their anticipated time frame.

I want to share my very positive experience with Dave's Computer Repair. My laptop's fan started to make unusual noises during the weekend. I e-mailed Dave's Computer Repair early on Monday morning and immediately received an invitation to bring my computer in. I brought my laptop in Monday morning and for a VERY reasonable price it was fixed by Wednesday morning. Compare this experience to the Geek Squad at Best Buy who estimated 30 days for the repair. Who can go without their computer in this day and age for 30 days? Count me in as an appreciative and very satisfied customer of Dave's Computer Repair.

Imac stopped booting up and brought it in. Had a diagnostic fee to start off but they were able to diagnose and fix quickly within days. Well worth the fee. Imac works great now. Covid safe too, as one customer in store at a time. Mask and social distancing. Well done. Highly recommended.

I have used Dave's computer multiple times over the past few years--from data recovery, to laptop screen repair, to workstation rebuild/re-imaging. Dave and team have always successfully resolved my issues and/or completed my requests promptly and professionally with upfront, easy to understand pricing (never any surprises). I'm so happy to have such a fantastic service in town that I know I can rely on for any issue!

I have used Dave's Computers many times for my family's laptops and desktops for a variety of maintenance and repair issues. Dave and his associates are pleasant and very knowledgeable. I've gotten my computers back, working perfectly, in a short amount of time and at a very good price. I highly recommend them.

Found them through Google. They were able to take me quickly. ----- Great. There was an extra fee to rush it. ----- Fine, no problem. When I received my laptop back it was very messed up including my MS Office documents (Word, Excel, etc.) were ALL converted into software called 'LibreOffice' which they installed on my laptop. My email was disconnected from the interface I had it attached to. Desktop format completely changed and on and on. ---- Let's fix it. Called and was told that I need to bring my laptop back to them and drop it off to fix THEIR mistakes.

I would lose at least a full day of working on my laptop and that is a 1 hour round trip for me x 2. I asked for them to just link into my computer and have them fix the problems they created and was told I had to pay for that. They created the problems and how do you justify $50 dollars to link into my device? I asked to speak to the Dave of Dave's computers and was told he will tell me the same thing with a little laugh. I chose not to give them another dime. Scam? Or they don't understand how to run a business. Very disappointing.

Recommended to the highest level without doubt. When my computer died I brought it to Dave's. It was history. They had me up and running on new equipment quickly. Honest service and resolution of your system needs. Don't hesitate to have them investigate and resolves your issue. Dave's understands customer service and being a partner in solving your needs in a cost effective manner. They went out of their way to get me functioning during a critical project for a client.

Contacted Daves after not having luck at Geek Squad. My nas drive was failing and was unable to retrieve the data. After 3 days Dave was able to retrieve the database files I needed for work. Glad Dave was able to take care of this soon and did the work in-house.

I brought my desktop in after it was having issues turning on. After a quick assessment, I left it there with the promise they would take a look at it ASAP. Shortly after lunch, maybe two hours later, they got back to me with the news that my motherboard had failed. They offered to transfer everything over to a new tower that would be comparable and they even offered to upgrade me to windows 10. Overall, it was a bit expensive, but my computer was up and running + upgraded within hours of the initial drop-off. The quality of work was excellent and should I require assistance in the future, I wouldn't hesitate to bring my computer to Dave's.

I freaked out when my work computer wouldn't boot up. The hard drive failed. They recovered all the data off my hard drive that would have taken years to redo. It wasn't cheap but it saved me my job and my sanity. I hope i never have to return but if i do I'll definitely go back.

My computer started going glitchy a couple of weeks ago (required numerous restarts) and finally got to the point where the programs would not run at all. My husband thought it was a problem with the hard drive not being recognized. We took the laptop to Dave and he looked at it immediately with an initial diagnosis of a bad laptop, the hard drive itself appeared to be OK (a great relief since I use it quite a bit).

He confirmed this the next day and after a couple of phone calls to agree on the direction to proceed, I now have a new computer with the old hard drive, all my files and the same "look" that I m familiar with. Thanks for making the transition completely painless! Dave was completely professional, knowledgeable, easy to work with and the computer is running beautifully.

I have been two Dave's twice and both times had very pleasant experiences. I came yesterday to pick up my PC that seems to be dead. Dave did not charge me the diagnostic fee which is great! Dave also has the online chat service which was very helpful. I spoke with him through the chat service the night before. In general, I trust his work and believe that he knows what he is doing. He is kind and can answer your computer questions quickly!

This was the first time I've been to Dave's Computers, but he clearly knows what he's doing. It's been a while since I've had my laptop checked out and I'm a student so I only use it for a few things, but Dave looked at it personally and got my speed and antivirus software up-to-date. He was friendly, professional, and the store, although almost hidden from the rest of the shopping plaza, was clean and easy to get to.

His service on my computer was delivered promptly at the agreed-upon time, and I was called once my laptop was ready. He was also ready to answer any follow-up questions and was quite helpful, even though the service itself was free. As a Testimoniacs expert, I would recommend Dave's Computers to anyone who, like me, wouldn't necessarily consider themselves to be computer-savvy, but needed some professional assistance of the right kind. I highly recommend one to take the opportunity to get their computer diagnosed for free; visiting Dave is worth the drive. Rachael

As a business owner in Hillsborough, it's imperative that we have our computers up and running every day. You can imagine my dismay when my laptop crashed and I was unable to network into our business. Rather than taking it to a "Geek Squad" at one of the many box stores, I chose to take it to Dave's Computers right in town. I explained my situation needing my laptop ASAP but I never even thought it possible I would be getting it back the very next day fixed.

I thought it was a goner! Dave did a great job explaining what my problem was and fixing it in such a timely manner. I highly recommend Dave's Computers for all your computer needs. Thanks so much Dave.

Our desktop stopped working completely one day. It was getting a black screen that said "hard drive self monitoring system has reported that a parameter has exceeded its normal operating range....". Then we would get another screen that asked us to hit F1 to reboot or F2 to "run setup utility". When we hit F2 we would get this blue screen and we just either accepted and saved or just hit ESC to restart. Needless to say, we looked around for help and Dave's Computer Inc. was recommended to us by a family friend. Am glad we took that recommendation because he was able to restore our Dell Inspiron 580 and all our docs and photos were saved! He even makes himself available for follow-up questions.

Fast repair and replacement of a failed hard drive. Dave's team was professional and helpful, and my computer runs better than it has in years.
Jim Murphy
A few weeks ago I visited Dave's Computer store to have my computer serviced and to check if there was any malicious software on it that would need to be removed. The turnaround was quick (less than one day). A different antivirus and malware software was recommended to replace what I had been using. Computer is running well. Cost of service was very reasonable.

Found a new place with honesty for my computer problems. My laptop took an accidental fall and "crashed" although we couldn't save everything at his facility. Dave put a new hard drive in and I had my laptop back the next day!! Had a small problem with it once I got home to set it up....he remotely was able to quickly fix it. Thanks Dave!!

I consider myself fortunate to have been in the right place at the right time. I was headed to my gym one night when I notice a vehicle with advertising computer repairs on it. I took down the number to call the shop the next morning. At that time I had been waiting on Best Buys geek squad computer repair to send machine off to a third-party but my machine sat there for over a week. I got on the phone and called Dave's Computers and explaining in detail the problem that I was having with my computer and then returned to me within 24 hours running better than it ever did! I would recommend anyone having any kind of problems with a computer be it PC on Mac Dave can fix it.

Had several severe issues with my eight-year-old laptop. Normally I would have replaced it however there was lots of data on the crashed hard drive that I needed recovered. After Dave's initial assessment they were confident they could retrieve most of the data I needed. Dave's replaced and upgraded the hard drive, upgraded the RAM, reloaded OS, scanned and back up. All was completed in a 24 hour period for much less than what I could've bought a new laptop for. Dave's said my laptop should be good for another four years easily. I was pleasantly surprised at the turnaround time and the cost. I would highly recommend them to anyone and will definitely use them in the future if the need arises.

I was unable to access my sandisk usb driver because it was broken. I contacted Dave at 10 pm thinking he would contact me the next morning. He emailed me within fifteen minutes to ask me to come in the next day. He was unable to fix the USB driver because of how it was broken, but he referred me to someone and didn't even charged me. If you want an honest person, please see Dave.

I have a business that is reliant on my computers, and I cant afford to be down. Therefore, I use Daves managed virus protection service. When I started to get alerts of suspicious activity, I contacted Daves and his team was right there with remote support. My computers were scanned and put into order with little wait time without my having to leave my home. I highly recommend Daves for all your computer support needs.
