When a computer starts to struggle, the right answer depends on the problem, the machine’s age and how you use it.
A Simple Guide
- Repair or upgrade when the computer is otherwise sound. More memory or a solid state drive can make an older machine feel new.
- Replace when repairs would cost close to the price of a new machine, when it can’t run current software, or when it no longer receives security updates.
- Back up first, whichever you choose.
Key takeawayIf a repair or upgrade makes sense, we’ll say so. If it doesn’t, we’ll say that too.
