MD Components Ltd is able to carry out a wide range of service and repair work on your PC. Hopefully, you purchased your machine from us, but even if you didn't we are happy to work on it for you.
We believe that if we look after you then you will consider us for your future PC purchases and upgrades.
You will find below our guide pricelist for service and repair work. As we are sure you will appreciate it isn't always possible to quote an exact price for the required work, but call us or bring in your item for a comprehensive quote.
You can rest assured that we will carry out the required work as cost effectively and economically as possible.
If you would like a more accurate estimate please speak with one of our engineers and ask him to ring you once we have examined your PC before carrying out the work.
Please note: if you decide not to have the work done we'll understand, it simply may not make economic sense. We do, however, make a small administration charge of £10.00 + VAT to cover the costs of the investigation work done on your PC.
If you decide to buy a new machine we'll even see if we can help you with the price of a replacement PC and for starters we will waive our administration charge.

Viruses and Spyware can be notoriously difficult to remove and can often be very time consuming to get rid of.
For this reason our normal approach with an infected PC is to reformat your hard drive and reload your PC's operating system.
This will of course mean that any data you had on your machine will be lost. If you do have any critical information on your machine, we can attempt to recover it. But, please be advised this is likely to be time consuming and costly and may not be successful.
If you wish us to attempt recovery of critical files from your infected PC please be advised we cannot be held responsible for any loss of data before, during or after the recovery process.
If you would like any advice or are unsure about any aspect of recovering your data, please ask one of our engineers for help.
If you ask us to do a system reload we will need your operating system software (fully licensed) and all supporting devices and drivers before we undertake the work.
If any drivers are missing we will attempt to download suitable files from the Internet but cannot guarantee we will find all the required drivers or that they will be suitable.
You will need to re-install any other software you may require on your PC. We cannot be held responsible for any conflicts this may cause with the newly installed operating system.

If we discover the problem can be easily resolved within a reasonable amount of time, the labour cost for the repair will be included as part of the above stated fee. However, if the problem requires a more in depth analysis additional labour costs will be incurred.

If all drivers cannot be supplied we will attempt to source necessary software from the Internet but we cannot guarantee that all the device drivers will be found.
Where reasonably possible, at the customers' request we will backup any data from the customers' hard disk prior to format and copy it back onto the newly reloaded system.
We cannot be held responsible for any loss of any data before, after or during the backup process. We cannot warranty the software system if a second or third party installs further hardware or software after the reload.
Please note: In all cases, labour charges are at the discretion of MD Components Ltd. If you have any questions please do not hesitate to discuss them with one of our engineers who will be more than happy to help and advise you.
