I needed a new battery for my 6 year old desktop and the fan cleaning. I've got benign tremor and working on small things very difficult. Searched for a repair guy and found PC Doctor (Franchise) rang this morning guy here inside the hour. All sorted within an hour, thoroughly checked. Total cost £25. Branches all over the country. Vereeeeeeeeeeee pleased |

The 2032 desktop computer batteries cost from 50p to £3 in supermarkets. They are held in place with a small clip which can be displaced using a fingernail, nail file, small screwdriver etc. Once the case is off - usually 4 thumb screws - changing the battery takes a couple if minutes max. |

Ah, but had you actually read Ron's post, you would have seen he said would have difficulty changing the battery - I think £25 for call out etc is good!! :-D :-D |

Sounds very good for someone not able to do it themselves for health reasons, or they could have spent hours getting frustrated and probably still end up calling someone in. |

Rollo you didnt take in my post proper. lol I shake too much to deal with miniature stuff. I knew how to change battery but I could easily have damaged the mother board. I wouldnt have known how to dismantle the fan - the guy disconnected it separated it from leads and washed it - it were very mucky indeed. I'm very happy with outcome |
