Computer Repair Vero Beach — Local services in Vero Beach

I recently started a brand new build from almost scratch (aside from my HDD and SDD from my old build). Purchased the majority of parts from the usual online shops (Amazon, Newegg, etc.) Purchased my Geforce RTX 4090 FE from a reputable third party site.

Took all parts to a professional computer shop who have been in the business for 28 years where they built/tested the machine. They did a great job but within a few days I got the dreaded call: there was something wrong with one or more parts. They told me the 4090 was causing the machine to boot in a loop and they could not get it working. The guy doing the build told me he thought it was my PSU but "wasn't sure". I immediately thought this couldn't be because I had bought a 1000W supply! They advised me to look into a more powerful unit and buy that.

Before doing so I decided to do some research into other computer professionals to get a second opinion. I found Chris and gave him a call. After explaining the situation to him he very knowedgably explained in detail why he thought the issue lied with the graphics card and not the PSU. He advised me to contact NVIDIA to check with them, which I did. Admittedely this is something I hadn't even considered doing and neither did the company who built my machine. Sure enough NVIDIA confirmed that my particular PSU should work fine with an RTX 4090. I can't believe I almost dumped more money into this project than I needed to.

I asked Chris if I could bring in everything to his place of business so he could check it out. To my surprise he was willing to take me in on the spot so I ran by the original computer shop, picked up my build and carted it over to Chris. He ran some tests on it right then and there and finally determined the card was dead! It wasn't the power supply at all. I have now initiated a return and have since ordered another card from Newegg now that they have them in stock. I am so grateful that I had Chris there in my corner to help me through the issues I was having with my build and to give me the CORRECT evaluation of what was wrong with it. He is very professional, friendly, and charges reasonably for the work and detail he puts in. I will now be going to him in the future for all my...

*Edit/Update: Brought my laptop to Computer Repair Vero Beach yet again, and received consistent service from a team who simply cares about the job they do and exceeds all expectations every time. I really cannot thank these guys enough. It has been over a month since my last repair, my ASUS laptop was not turning on / start button was not functioning. It has been working flawlessly, and even though this is a hardware issue because of the laptop itself, they got the job done professionally, made the repair simple for me, and once again worked within my schedule to ensure I could still show up for my remote job while they ordered the needed parts. 10/10 service always.

Original Review: Was super concerned after coffee was dropped on the corner of my ASUS Laptop Keyboard. After seeing the reviews, I didn’t hesitate to contact Chris for help. He didn’t waste any time and gave me advice on the spot on how to minimize any further damage, and how it would be cleaned, not once pushing a sale or sensationalizing anything - just the facts and information I needed to make an educated decision. I knew that the honesty I received over just the first phone call was enough for me to run right over and have the laptop looked at by his team. You usually cannot get service like this at Geek Squad or other places because oftentimes, they prioritize money over honesty, sacrificing quality for a paycheck. This was never an issue for Computer Repair Vero Beach. He asked all the right questions, provided me with information I needed to know about my laptop and the issue, and I had it fixed within my needed timeframe for work. Chris even texted me updates and a photo of my laptop during repair to ensure I was up to date on progress. They also found major buildup and dust in my laptop fan and cleared it out for me which was possibly the most important part of this service I didn’t even realize before seeing the photo of it. All in all, I will be back whenever I need my devices repaired or cleaned. 10/10 experience, service, and professionalism.

May God continue to bless this business in Jesus’...

Once again Chris Bodnar with Computer Repair Vero Beach came to the rescue!! I was having issues with an older laptop not letting me in because of a corrupt profile login. After looking on the internet, thinking that I would be able to do something on my own. I once again called Chris, and once again he came to the rescue!!

Chris was having difficulty at first, and spent the better part of the day trying to remedy the situation, to no avail. I texted him a bit after 3 p.m. asking how things were going and he texted back at 4 p.m. stating that it was not looking good, but that he wasn’t giving up yet. At 7:30 p.m. he called and said it looked like he had remedied the situation and I was good to go!!! Best of all, he gave me a very fair price.

In my opinion Chris is a genius at what he does and definitely goes the extra mile to solve the problem if he thinks that there is even a slim chance. I HIGHLY recommend giving him a call if you have ANY computer issues! He is a ROCK STAR!
