APCS handles hardware, software, performance, networking, and power-related computer problems. This includes failing desktop power supplies, hard drives and SSDs, RAM issues, overheating, laptop charging ports, battery problems, slow boot times, unstable Wi-Fi, software installation, printer setup, and data recovery from failing drives. The goal is to identify the real cause before replacing parts.

For some repair services, APCS lists a $100 diagnosis fee, and in certain cases that fee may cover the resolution of the issue. Pricing can vary depending on the device, parts required, travel distance, and complexity of the repair. A lengthy distance may incur a travel time charge, especially for on-site service outside nearby coverage areas.

APCS diagnoses no-power computers, including desktops with failed ATX or SFX power supplies, systems with sudden shutdowns, fans spinning with no display, burning smells, buzzing power supplies, and possible motherboard or battery issues.

APCS provides data recovery support for failing hard drives and SSDs, including drives affected by power supply failures, sudden shutdowns, power surges, charger failures, and computers that died before backups were completed.
