What’s the difference between hardware and software repair?
Hardware repair fixes physical parts, while software repair deals with operating systems and apps.
How can I tell if my computer has a virus or hardware issue?
Viruses usually affect performance and files, while hardware issues cause shutdowns, noises, or boot failures.

Are free PC speed-up tools safe?
Most are scams or bloatware. Stick to trusted tools from Microsoft or your trusted IT professional at PC Pulse IT.

Yes. Prolonged overheating can damage CPUs, GPUs, and other components.

If the repair costs are close to a new PC’s price, replacement may be smarter.
