David is so knowledgeable about computers. He’s patient with older people like me at 69, who aren’t always computer literate. He’s responsible reasonable intelligent and caring. I’d recommend David to anyone who needs help with their computers.

I spoke with David about the issues I had with my computer concerning the blue screen DPC watchdog violation and driver powerstate failure, and he was able to diagnose the problem. He walked me through the correct steps to fix the issue. He listened to the steps I tried previously before jumping to conclusions. We were able to fix the issue in under an hour. I would highly recommend him and use him again. All services were provided over the phone. It was very convenient. He did a great job!

I highly recommend David's computer repair. I needed someone to help me print documents and email to an employer. David tried instructing me how to do this but I could not find the tool that he told me about. So he recommended that I go to my local library and they would be able to scan my documents and then email them. I thought I would have to pay for this information but he said this was a tip that he was giving. Thank you David, once again.

Excellent service. . Very happy with the work and time he put in the two computers. I am very happy with his work ethics. He spent a lot of time to each computer I needed to get in working order. I appreciate his effort and knowledge in his hard work. He was a pleasure to deal with. I highly recommend him if you need a computer in working order. Thanks Dave

David was extremely knowledgeable, very patient and willing to try various strategies to get things working for me again. We worked long distance, over the phone, as he lives halfway to the other end of the country from me. I would highly, highly recommend his services. And his charges I felt were very reasonable. I'd use him again in a minute. Thank You David!
