Rascom I.T. offer a cost-effective repair service for faulty computer equipment.

We aim to offer a fast turnaround time for all repairs though this obviously depends on the severity of the problem.

Some examples of our fixed-price repair services are listed below but for all requirements you are recommended to contact us to discuss your problem further.

Replacement power supplies

One of the commonest repairs we undertake - a faulty or blown power supply in your desktop or laptop computer.

Desktop systems
We can supply and fit a replacement power supply for just £49.99 inc VAT.  We have a range in stock to fit current and older systems.  For standard MicroATX-based systems, we only use high-quality, low-noise high-wattage units to provide your system with the maximum power throughput without compromising on noise levels.

Laptop computers
We can supply original or compatible adapters starting from £44.99 inc VAT.  Please contact us with the exact make/model of your machine as prices vary depending on laptop manufacturer and the age of the machine.

 

Replacement hard disk drives for desktops

If your hard disk has failed or you simply need more storage space we have a range of disk options to suit your needs.

We commonly use Seagate and Western Digital hard disk drives and will normally use a drive with a higher memory cache where possible to improve system performance.

* Due to the current availability issues of hard disk drives, the pricing below should only be used as a guideline.  Please call us to discuss latest pricing and availability.

IDE (older systems)
As IDE-style drives are older technology, stocks and supplies are limited.
160gb         : call for pricing
500gb         : call for pricing
Larger sizes subject to availability

S-ATA (newer systems)
320gb/500gb     : £120.00 inc VAT and fitting
1Tb                  : £150.00 inc VAT and fitting
2Tb                  : £200.00 inc VAT and fitting

150Gb (10,000rpm)         : call for pricing
300Gb (10,000rpm)         : call for pricing

*The mb value shown in brackets represents the cache buffer used on the hard disk drive.  A larger buffer gives improved data transfer performance.

Additional charges may apply to transfer data, clone existing hard disks and/or re-install the operating system in instances of complete disk failure.  Please contact us for further information.

 

Replacement hard disk drives for laptops

To expand the storage capacity of your laptop computer, it may be possible to replace your existing hard disk with one of a larger capacity.  Unlike desktop systems, laptops only have space for a single disk drive so we have to 'clone' your existing drive onto the new hard disk and therefore our prices reflect the additional work involved.

* Due to the current availability issues of hard disk drives, the pricing below should only be used as a guideline.  Please call us to discuss latest pricing and availability.

IDE (older systems)
As IDE-style drives are older technology, stocks and supplies are limited.
80gb         : call for pricing
160gb       : call for pricing
Larger sizes subject to availability.

S-ATA (newer systems)
320gb       : £150.00 inc VAT, fitting and disk cloning
500gb       : £200.00 inc VAT, fitting and disk cloning

*The mb value shown in brackets represents the cache buffer used on the hard disk drive.  A larger buffer gives improved data transfer performance.

We do not recommend the use of larger capacities at this time due to hardware limitations on many laptop systems.

Memory upgrades

When the computer is starting to run out of steam, a memory upgrade is usually a good way of giving it a little boost without the need for costly replacements of processors and motherboards.

Where possible we commonly used genuine Kingston-branded memory.  DDR2 memory is rated at 800mhz, DDR3 memory is rated at 1333mhz.  If preferred we can supply other brands and/or speeds.

Laptops and Desktop (DDR2 & DDR3 memory)

1Gb : £30.00 inc VAT and fitting
2Gb : £40.00 inc VAT and fitting
4Gb : £50.00 inc VAT and fitting

Pricing for legacy DDR memory available upon request subject to stock availability.

NOTE:
Standard Windows XP, Vista and 7 32-bit operating systems will not support memory capacity higher than 3Gb. Windows Vista and 7 64-bit systems will allow memory capacity of up to 192Gb although most motherboards currently only support up to 16Gb.
