We're open Monday through Friday, 9 AM to 5 PM, closed Saturday and Sunday.

Not Sure What You Need? · ~60 Seconds

What's Going On With Your Computer?

Answer three quick questions and we'll point you to the right service, tell you what the diagnostic costs, and what to bring in.

Step 1 of 3 — What kind of computer is it?

We're a Windows-only shop. This first question saves you a trip if it's something we don't service.

Step 2 of 3 — What's the main problem?

Pick the closest match. If two things describe what's going on, pick the bigger one.

Step 3 of 3 — Standard or gaming PC?

This sets the diagnostic fee. Gaming machines cost more because they take longer to properly test.

Laptop Repair

Laptops are complicated — lots of tiny parts crammed into a thin frame. Our technicians have repaired thousands of laptops from every major brand. Whether it's a hardware failure or a software issue, we'll diagnose it for free and give you a straight answer on whether it's worth fixing.

  • Screen replacement (all sizes)
  • Keyboard & trackpad repair
  • Charging port replacement
  • Battery replacement
  • Motherboard diagnosis & repair
  • Overheating / fan cleaning
  • Hinge & case repair
  • HP, Dell, Lenovo, ASUS, Acer, MSI, Razer, Samsung, LG & more

Note: We service Windows laptops only — HP, Dell, Lenovo, ASUS, Acer, MSI, Razer, Samsung, LG, and custom builds. Other operating systems and tablet/phone hardware are outside our specialty.


🖥

Desktop & PC Repair

From family PCs to gaming rigs, we repair all types of desktop computers. Won't turn on? Blue screen of death? Randomly shuts off? These are all things we troubleshoot every day. Bring it in — or call and describe what's happening, and we'll let you know if it sounds like an easy fix.

  • Won't power on diagnosis
  • Blue screen / crash repair
  • Power supply replacement
  • GPU / CPU diagnosis
  • Operating system repair & reinstall
  • Custom build troubleshooting
  • Component upgrades
  • Overheating & thermal paste refresh

Note: We service Windows desktops and PCs only — HP, Dell, Lenovo, ASUS, and custom builds. Other operating systems and tablet/phone hardware are outside our specialty.


🛡

Virus & Malware Removal

A virus or malware infection can slow your computer to a crawl, steal your passwords, or hold your files hostage (ransomware). Don't panic — we've cleaned up thousands of infected machines. We do a complete system scan, remove all threats, then set you up with protection so it doesn't happen again.

  • Virus & spyware removal
  • Ransomware cleanup
  • Browser hijacker removal
  • Adware & PUP removal
  • Antivirus setup & hardening
  • Performance recovery after infection

💾

Data Recovery

Losing important files — family photos, business documents, school projects — is devastating. Before you give up, bring the drive to us. We recover data from hard drives that have failed mechanically, been accidentally formatted, or had files deleted. We give you a free assessment before we start any recovery work.

  • Failed hard drive recovery
  • Accidentally deleted files
  • Formatted drive recovery
  • Corrupted partition recovery
  • SSD & flash drive recovery
  • Free assessment before you commit

⚠ If your drive is making clicking or grinding noises, don't power it on again — bring it in immediately.


📺

Laptop Screen Replacement

A cracked or broken laptop screen doesn't mean it's time for a new laptop. We replace screens for most popular models — often on the same day. Bring your laptop in, we'll confirm the right screen part, and get you back up and running fast.

  • Cracked or shattered screens
  • Dead pixels & display artifacts
  • Backlight / inverter repair
  • HD, FHD, 4K panel options
  • Touch screen replacement

SSD & RAM Upgrades

If your computer is slow but otherwise working fine, it might just need an upgrade rather than a replacement. Switching from an old hard drive to an SSD is the single biggest performance improvement you can make — boot times can drop dramatically — often under a minute. Adding RAM stops the sluggishness when you have too many tabs open.

  • SSD installation (SATA & NVMe)
  • Data migration from old drive
  • RAM upgrade (4GB → 8GB → 16GB+)
  • Compatibility check before purchase
  • Windows reinstall & setup included
  • Before & after speed benchmarks

Pro tip: Most laptops 3–6 years old are great candidates for an SSD upgrade. It's often cheaper than buying a new computer and gives you 3+ more years of fast performance.


🖥

Gaming PC Repair

Gaming rigs are more complex than your average PC — higher-end components, more heat, more power draw, and sometimes exotic cooling setups. Our techs know gaming hardware. Whether your rig is crashing mid-game, running hotter than it should, or won't POST at all, we'll track down the problem and fix it right.

Diagnostic fee for gaming PCs is $99 (vs. $39.99 for standard computers). The extra fee reflects the additional time required to properly test high-performance components.

  • GPU diagnosis & replacement
  • Overheating & thermal paste refresh
  • Game crash & BSOD troubleshooting
  • Driver conflicts & OS issues
  • Cooling upgrades (fans, AIO, air)
  • Power supply testing & replacement
  • RAM & storage upgrades
  • No POST / won't boot diagnosis

🔨

Custom PC Builds

Want a PC built exactly for what you need — gaming, video editing, a home office machine, or a budget-friendly workhorse? We'll help you pick the right parts for your budget and build it properly: clean cable management, correct thermal paste application, stress-tested before it leaves the shop.

You can supply your own parts or we can source them for you. Every build gets Windows installed, drivers updated, and a full performance test before pickup.

  • Parts selection & budget consultation
  • Full assembly & cable management
  • Windows install & driver setup
  • Stress testing & benchmarking
  • Gaming, workstation & budget builds
  • Bring your own parts or we source them

Not sure what to buy? Call us before you order anything. We'll tell you if the parts you're looking at are compatible and worth the price — no charge for a quick parts list review.

Compatibility: Our AI does its best to match parts (CPU socket to motherboard, PSU wattage to GPU, etc.) but cannot guarantee 100% compatibility. Manufacturer revisions, BIOS versions, case clearances, and similar variables can affect a build. We strongly recommend bringing your parts list to our shop, or calling 717-739-9675, for a free human compatibility check before ordering.

Prices: Price estimates are AI-generated based on typical recent retail prices and may not reflect current Amazon listings. Stock, sale pricing, and shipping vary — always verify the actual price on Amazon before purchasing.

Availability: Parts go out of stock, get discontinued, or get replaced by newer models. The Amazon search links go to live results — the specific product the AI named may or may not be available.

No warranty on parts you order: Any parts you purchase from Amazon are covered by Amazon and the manufacturer’s warranty — not by York Computer Repair. We provide a separate warranty on our assembly labor only.

Affiliate disclosure: As an Amazon Associate, York Computer Repair earns from qualifying purchases at no extra cost to you. This keeps the tool free.

York Computer Repair is not liable for any losses, incompatibilities, damages, or other issues resulting from purchases or builds based on these recommendations. By submitting, you agree to our full Terms of Service and Privacy Policy.

AI limitations: Our AI may not know about very recently released games or hardware. For brand-new games, expect a "best-guess for the genre" build — not a tuned recommendation.

What York Customers Are Saying

5.0 average from 20+ Google reviews

“I am 78 years old and not tech-savvy, and after trying to fix my laptop myself, I made things worse. I took it to York Computer Repair and am so glad I did. Nate was wonderful, kind, patient and never made me feel stupid. The next morning he called me with a clear diagnosis and exact cost. He fixed it that same morning. I am so excited how great it works. No wonder they have the best reviews in York. I highly recommend them!”

— Donna J.

“I’d give 100 stars if I could! Their staff was super friendly and very quick. Although my computer problem turned out to be minor, they were incredibly helpful and attentive with my issue. Highly recommend visiting this team before going to Best Buy or any other large company!”

— S. Will

Google Review

“Fixed my laptop hella fast — FIXED IN HOURS NOT DAYS. THANK YOU. Amazing service, quick diagnostic and repair. What seemed like a simple install to put Windows 11 on a laptop felt like I needed a college degree — these folks helped me fix it. A+”

— Matt

Google Review

“Super happy with the service I received today as a brand new customer. They were fantastic and efficient, not to mention most importantly, honest. I will certainly use this company again and highly recommend them to anyone in need of computer repair, troubleshooting, and point of sale.”

— Kristen Z.

Google Review

“We bought our laptop from York Computer on Carlisle Road and signed up for monthly service so they would monitor everything and handle any updates or issues. They have done an outstanding job and are always available for any questions or concerns from this ‘not tech savvy’ client. In the past we had bought from a department-type store — the experience was definitely not the same. Check them out.”

— Jean R.

Google Review

“I have nothing but great words for this company. All those I’ve talked and worked with have been very courteous and actually knew what was wrong — and explained the problem in a way I could understand. They are the only place where I would trust what they said about my computer.”

— Bob S.
