If you have to ask GOFUCKYOURSELF these questions, then you most certainly are NOT ready to be going into this line of business.SIG TOO BIG! Maximum 120x60 button and no more than 3 text lines of DEFAULT SIZE and COLOR. Unless your sig is for a GFY top banner sponsor, you may use a 624x80 instead of a 120x60. Let me repeat... A 120 x 60 button and no more that 3 lines of DEFAULT SIZE AND COLOR text.Comment

The fastest, easiest way to diagnose a pc is experience. Each component has a way of acting when it's "bad".
The fastest, easiest way to get that experience (and to diagnose parts) is to keep a stock of very widely used, highly compatible parts to swap out for testing. Software tests can take a LONG time - much more time efficient to swap parts, as the time you spend running one deep diagnostic test you could swap nearly everything.
Ram and cables are the fastest and easiest to start with. Then CPU, powersupply and mobo.
Start working on and building your own machines, then for other people and then the general public. I was building and doing repairs before I got into the net stuff. It's not a bad living.
All the best to you

Worked at a shop when I was in college. He is right, experience is the best tool you can use. Starting a computer up and looking around and knowing what to look for is the best way.even ADULTS need TOYS

I would think so.
I do repairs, been doing repairs from the 1980's and have yet 2 see a diagnostic cd, or diagnostic floppy. Was no cd's when I started.
Don't do many repairs now, but from what I see and some friends I have helped of late, you could make some good money.
Better know how 2 get rid of virus, trojan's, spyware, toolbars 2 name a few.
Some real nasty shit out there.Epic CashEpic Cash works for me

ok. to clarify, i have experience running an escort service.
with any type of "agency" or service based business, you need a methodology, not just an ad hoc approach.
i know alot of people on here know alot about computers and maybe there might be a chance there is someone else who makes side money repairing computers...
i will not be the one repairing the computers..Looking to speak w/ high volume nutra CPA affiliates or networks... msg meComment

i have been doing computer repairs for almost 7 years now, and I have never needed a cd
how would you use that cd if the machine didn't even boot up...
don't depend on others to tell you what is wrong....you should have the experience and knowledge to do it yourself
i can usually analyze the most severe problem within 20 minutes...just takes knowing each problem first hand and it's symptomsComment
