If I could leave more than 5 stars I would! Dave was AMAZING! I needed to install more RAM in my laptop but had completely stripped screws in and could not get them out. I called at 10am, dropped it off shortly thereafter, and everything was done and good as new by noon! Incredibly nice guy, exceptional service! Customer for life!!

D.A. Computers is a hidden treasure for your computer needs! Dave has been servicing my personal computers for almost 20 years and it has always been a great experience: prompt service and repair, great custom build computers which more than meet my needs at less than half the price of a big chain stores plus helpful advice and knowledge. Dave does not just read the label when asked about a product but provides expert advice, helpful analysis of your situation and very useful solutions at a great value - be that repair, refurbished unit or new PC. Skip the big, bright retail stores and give D.A. Computers a call. You will not regret it and you will save lots of $$$ and leave with more useful, better product tailored for your actual needs.

Thank you so much for your prompt and professional service! It is rare these days to find a hard working compassionate person to care for an elderly veteran. That is just what David did at DA Computer. All in a short timeframe David understood this mans needs and took care of his computer problem immediately. You made this mans day by your prompt attention to him and for recognizing him as a veteran! I highly recommend DA Computer for any computer issue you may have.

Awesome place fair prices. And he really does good work. I had gone to best buy where they told me a virus was the problem. And yet it still wasnt fixed. He got to the bottom of the problem and for less than what I wouldve eneded up paying at best buy and in less time! Never again will I go to best buy. Thank you!

D.A. took an old DELL Precision PC with failing hard drives, cloned and reinstalled them, and the machine is running like nothing ever happened. Beyond relieved! My old XP machine is my workhorse, and now it should be good for another decade. D.A. is very responsive and knowledgeable. I will go nowhere else with any future PC-support needs.

David at D.A. Computer is the ONLY person I trust to fix my computer! HE KNOWS COMPUTERS!!! He is awesome, knowledgeable and very efficient and his prices are VERY reasonable! He went through the whole system to make sure I had all the updates and security protections that I was missing. Not only that, I have a large screen computer and he helped me carry it in and out. The last time I brought my desktop in, I couldn’t sign on or retrieve anything on my computer. When he called to say it was ready, he advised me there was no problem so HE WOULD NOT CHARGE ME!!! Seriously, how many people would be that honest??? I recommend D.A. Computer to everyone for all your computer needs. David is THE BEST!!!

I had an absolute nightmare happen yesterday. My computer blue screened, and my drives were all too full to be able to restore and or reset my computer. I thought I was totally screwed and lost hours upon hours of data and project work for my job. I called Dave at 2PM, he heard how stressed out I was about thinking I lost my data and my PC to some kind of corruption in my OS. I dropped my computer off around 2:30, by 4PM my computer was fixed and every single piece of data on my PC was restored. Absolute legend Dave is for this. I cant stress enough how thankful I am for Dave being so quick and responsive to my problem. Working from Home has its perks, but in situations like this, not many people can dig there way out of it. Thank you Dave. I will always come to you in the future with any form of tech problem I have, and I urge anyone who reads this to do the same.Fantastic cost for service as well! Love supporting small business, who needs best buy any ways!!- Tim

David was wonderful! I had an old Panasonic DVD player that had a burned out capacitor that needed to be replaced. That required soldering in a new one. David was the only person around (Southeastern MA, the Cape and Rhode Island) who knew how to solder and do it properly. Even other chain computer and electronic repair shops did not have someone with the knowledge to solder. When I brought the capacitor in, David changed it and repaired it in an instant! He even put other work aside to help me out. The player was fully repaired and worked GREAT! Best of all, because the repair was so minor, David didnt even charge me! (Although I insisted he take a tip for his great work!) If I ever have a computer repair issue, I know where Im going first.

Incredible service, quality and professionalism at DA Computer. They could not figure out a minor clicking that was happening to my gaming computer, but took a week to look it over and countless hours, a whole lot of work and effort...but since they did not do any actual repairs they did not charge me a penny! I will go 10/10 times to DA for any technology issue. I intend on going back soon for an upgrade, the go to guy for any computer issue in RI!

Excellent and friendly service with great rates and transparency. When I called in the first time David was immediately helpful in diagnosing my problem over the phone, and during the repairs he was always friendly, helpful, and accommodated my needs as a customer. Many of my laptops issues seemed completely mind boggling, but David would not rest until we got to the bottom of them and he only charged for the initial repairs. I could not recommend this place more, especially having dealt with other local shops that were unclear on what services they could provide, much more expensive, rude and unaccommodating.

Review №16

Dave is professional, punctual, up-front, and a nice guy to boot. Prices seem reasonable (he quotes his repair work by the hour) and you are allowed to purchase the replacement parts yourself to make sure you have a warranty for yourself in case the replacement component ever develops problems in the future. He disassembled my entire laptop and replaced the motherboard with no issues. Thanks, Dave!EDIT: Following a second visit 6 months later to address a new problem that had developed (fan failure), Dave noticed while working on my machine that my battery had begun to bloat, which I now understand can result in spontaneous combustion if left unchecked! I am quite thankful for this guys attention to detail, as Im not sure where Id be 6 months from now if someone less sharp had worked on it...

David was incredibly nice and professional! I was worried that my computer was having battery issues since it wasnt holding charge and there was a message stating AC adapter not recognized and neither regular charger nor universal charger were working. He calmed me down, walked me through possible issues, looked over my computer and had it back to me in no time! Also, his pricing is phenomenal! I will be going to him if I have any computer issues.

Dave runs a great shop! I called him to describe my needs, he solved my issue, and gave me honest answers about the scope and cost.Not only is this a professional operation, it’s personal.

Absolutely wonderful business. Service is excellent and the owner is both polite and professional. I would recommend D.A. Computer LLC to anybody in the East Bay area!I had some issues with a PC that wouldnt fully start after a recent update. I wasnt sure if I was encountering software or hardware issues, but David wrestled the problem around until he figured out my motherboard was defective.

I brought my laptop in DOA. I had no idea what might be wrong. After sending it out to another repair shop and returned unfixed, I decided to try one more time. Brought it in and Dave had it fixed in a day. Dave was more than happy to answer any questions I had about the process and also was helpful answering questions about other devices I was having issues with. One thing is for sure, if he was unable to repair the laptop I still would come back. Expensive gaming laptop fixed at an incredibly fair price and I am very happy. Wish I had found him sooner. Thanks Dave.

I have used D.A. Computer for repairs, upgrades, buying a used P.C., and for general advice. Dave is knowledgeable and easy to deal with. His prices are quite reasonable, and repair turnaround is quick. I have recommended him to others who are equally pleased with his service. If I needed a new computer, I would go to D.A. before I went to a big box store and got oversold.

Review №39

When my laptop crashed AND my backup external driver turned out to be corrupted (data inaccessible), I turned to D.A. Computer LLC. Dave provided intelligent AND intelligible expectations, but delivered beyond my expectations. Within a day all of my data was recovered, moved to a new external drive, AND my laptop was repaired. All for a very reasonable cost. I will not hesitate to recommend Dave and his company to any seeking computer advice and repairs, and although I hope not see him again soon, I will go to him with any future issues.

Recently had both my laptop and desktop computers shutdown. Unable to do anything I found D.A. Computers on google search. Since they were close by I brought both computers there on Saturday. David reassured me he could take care of them. Both computers were ready on Sunday even though he is usually closed we picked them up. Cleared out the viruses and both are working fine. Very pleasant man and wonderful work ethic. Would definitely recommend his service to anyone needing help.

Dr Dave is great in diagnosing, repairing, and returning your computer quickly. His rates are very fair and his work is guaranteed. He goes out of his way to find the right parts. He replaced my laptops whole keyboard and when it stopped working a few days later he refunded my money. Strangely it started working again a week later. When I called to pay him, he suggested we let it go 60 days to make sure everything was okay before I paid again. I had to call him and force the issue before he would take my cash. He wanted to be sure i was completely satisfied with the service.

What can I say about Dave- HE IS AMAZING. first of all- he is one of the kindest people ive met in the computer service industry. He had taken my iMac that i purchased on ebay and swapped a SATA hdd for my unopened 1TB ssd and then cloned it. His pricing is very reasonable and he is great to deal with. As long as he is in business, not only will I continue to go to him but I will refer ANYONE to him. He is a lone ranger in this business and a hidden GEM in east providence. Happy to say that Dave has a customer for LIFE. Thank you Dave!

Brought a laptop over here as it wouldn’t progress past the start up screen and whereas I use it for school I needed it back ASAP. .Dave had me leave it with him and a few hours later I was picking it up good to go.

Review №52

Dave saved me fro spending $$$$. My laptop wasnt working for months although it was not even a year old and it would make the noise of starting up but the screen would not turn on. I scheduled an appointment with best buy and within a one minute chat, they told me that it was either the motherboard or a wire problem connecting the motherboard to the screen. So needless to say I was ready to buy a new laptop but the best buy guy told me to go to D.A. Computer and it was the best thing. I went to Dave and told him that I had an online class and Im still in college and I NEED my laptop. He opened it up right in front of me and told me that he can try a few things. 20 minutes later, I have my baby back up and running. It was not the motherboard or the wiring, it was a faulty piece of ram. He was so sweet about it and explained everything he was doing and what controls what. So amazing!! Sending all my college friends here!

Dave is great. When my son broke his computer I thought it was done. But then D.A. Computers was recommended to me by two different people (one of them Best Buy). I gave Dave a shot and I wasnt sorry. I took in my computer and determined he could fix it but it would take a week. He put the computer back together so that I could use it for the week and even let me borrow an accessory so that it would work. He fixed the computer and charged me a reasonable rate. I recommend D.A. Computers to anyone.

Came in here for the first time a month ago when my work laptops screen quit working on me. After a quick diagnosis, Brian (I think is his name) gave me a quote to fix it, but I decided instead to just buy a new one because I needed it for work and couldnt wait. He was helpful throughout, and even suggested coming back if I wanted to sell the old laptop after I transferred the data. Well, I did that and met the owner (again, I think), and hes equally as nice and helpful. He cut me a check for my old laptop and offered me some solutions for setting up my new one. Its good to have these kind of down-to-earth shops still present, and this place definitely deserves your business. I will be back, too, with any new issues that hopefully dont pop up.

I dont write reviews. I dont write reviews because most of the time the quality of a product or service isnt worth taking the time to comment upon. I am making an exception for DA Computer.

This was my second experience at DA computer. This is an extremely professional store. I worked at different times with both the owner Dave and his assistant Mike. Both of these gentlemen were superb. They took my relatively simple problem extremely seriously. The went the extra mile for me, spending extra time on diagnosis, going out of thway to clean and organize and kept me up to date through the entire process which was resolved quickly. They are knowledgeable and able to really walk me through the more complex problems. Even better the final price was well below what I would have expected for how much work went in to this. I would recommend the DA computer team in a heartbeat.
