"It just needs a new battery!"

Sometimes it does. Sometimes that five-year-old $800 laptop also has a struggling SSD, only 8 GB of RAM and Windows full of junk. The $250 battery replacement can become a $500+ overhaul - and it still feels like an old, cheap laptop.

That doesn’t mean every older computer should be replaced. A good-quality laptop that still performs well can be worth repairing for several more years of use.

We repair computers for a living, but we’ll tell you when yours isn’t worth the expense. Bring it to Fix My Laptop in Clayfield and let’s work out where your money is best spent.

Your laptop stops charging, the battery barely lasts long enough to finish a coffee, or the screen gets smashed. Do you get it repaired or take that as your excuse to buy a new one? Here is how a quick repair can turn into a $500 overhaul.

School holidays are a good time to replace a laptop that has spent the last term freezing during class, dying before lunch or losing its Wi-Fi connection at the worst possible moment. Last year we wrote about the best new student laptops you could walk into a shop and buy. After another year of seeing machines come across our repair bench, we would start the conversation somewhere else: with a good refurbished business laptop.

Best student laptops for 2026: refurbished business laptops, MacBook Neo and decent new Dell models. Compare durability, battery life and repair costs.

Is cloud storage safe? For most people, it’s much safer than keeping the only copy of everything on one laptop.

SSDs can fail suddenly and without warning. Professional data recovery is expensive—and there are no guarantees. Microsoft 365 Basic includes 100GB of OneDrive storage, which is enough for most people to synchronise their important files without paying for the full Office subscription.

Need help checking your backup? Fix My Laptop can make sure your important folders are properly synchronised.

"The cloud" sounds mysterious, but it simply means storing or accessing something on servers operated by someone else. If you use Gmail, Outlook, internet banking, Facebook, Google Photos or Netflix, you’re already using cloud services.

We don’t hate antivirus software. We hate antivirus software that behaves suspiciously like the problem it claims to solve. Norton, McAfee, Trend Micro and similar security suites often promise complete protection, with VPN, identity monitoring, and cloud backups included.

Good security should work quietly in the background. It should protect your computer without frightening you, selling to you or taking control of it.

That stylish OLED laptop may look like a bargain - until the screen cracks and the repair takes weeks because parts aren't available.

For business use, common business-grade models by Dell, HP and Lenovo are usually easier to repair, quicker to return to service and cheaper over their lifetime.

Buy with the longevity in mind, not just the specs or price.

Why flashy laptops can cost businesses more in downtime and repairs - and why standard standard business models win

The biggest risk to your privacy is not always a giant data breach or a sophisticated hacker. Often, it is a rushed decision, a reused password, an unexpected phone call, or sharing something with the wrong person.

Scammers do not need to know everything about you. A few leaked details and the right story can be enough to make a fake bank alert, delivery message or payment request look convincing.

Privacy problems are not always caused by complicated hacking. In many real cases, the weak point is a person being rushed, trusting the wrong call or email, reusing a password, or sharing more information than necessary. Our article explains the practical habits that make a real difference: pause,....

A car model. A familiar number. One old password used everywhere.

Last week, we saw several customers hacked because their passwords were based on details from their own lives — easy to remember, but also easy for criminals and automated password tools to guess.

If one reused password leaks from a small website, attackers can try it against your email, Facebook, Microsoft account and more. Your email is especially important: it is often the reset key for everything else.

Last week we had several customers come in after their accounts had been hacked. Not because some evil KGB agent was targetting them specifically. No, it happens easier than that. In most cases, the starting point is much more ordinary: a password that felt personal and memorable but was also fairly...

Microsoft has quietly given Windows 10 users another year before the security-update tap is finally turned off. Windows 10 officially reached the end of normal support on 14 October 2025. Microsoft had originally offered Extended Security Updates until October 2026 and it's now been extended to 2027.

However, the additional year should be treated as planning time rather than permission to forget about the problem until October 2027. An older computer may benefit from a proper tune-up, removal of unnecessary startup software, installation of updates, internal cleaning or an upgrade.

Microsoft had originally offered eligible home users Extended Security Updates until October 2026. That deadline...

You may have noticed that laptop are getting more expensive and worse. With RAM and SSD prices rising, budget Windows laptops are barely enough to run Windows 11 without testing your patience. Before buying the cheapest machine on the shelf, check what is actually inside it, because a “bargain” laptop can become expensive very quickly.

Getting flooded with spam emails?

Blocking every sender usually doesn’t work, and clicking “unsubscribe” on obvious spam can make things worse. The better approach is to mark junk as spam, avoid suspicious links and attachments, and train your email filter properly.

If your inbox is already a mess, we can help clean it up, check your email settings, improve filtering, and secure your account.

The short answer - you can't. But you can stop letting them ruin your day. Email was designed so that anyone who knows your address can send you a message.
