killamch89 Posted August 22 Share Posted August 22 Hey everyone! I'm curious about how comfortable you all are with troubleshooting and fixing computer issues. Are you a DIY guru who can handle hardware and software problems with ease, or do you prefer to leave it to the pros? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Button Posted September 13 Share Posted September 13 I'd say I'm a mid-level DIYer. I can only handle software issues and basic hardware upgrades, but when it comes to complex problems or delicate components, I prefer to seek professional help.

I can actually troubleshoot most software issues and replace RAM or hard drives, but I draw the line at soldering or advanced hardware repairs.

I'd say I'm at above average level as in I can fix a lot of complicated problems as I used to work in a friend's computer store part-time as a technician in my teens so I learned how to work on PCs from that time.
