Please let me know if you can recommend someone who is able to repair and install the above.

I'd really prefer for someone to come to me and for it not to cost the earth. I'm sure it's a simple repair / installation I need, I just don't know how to do it!

Thank you.

Thanks arohadxb. I have used Lee once before and was happy with his service. However, I thought his prices were a bit high. I had received a new notebook and set it up with a password. I forgot the password and the only way to get around it was to re-install windows. I had the windows disc but the notebook doesnt have a cd-drive. So basically all he did was re-install windows for me (no data on notebook) for 400dhs. If I'm way out of touch with rates please tell me! And if I don't get any other recs on here I'll have to contact him anyway. Expensive business this, being a techno-dummy! I am a complete techie idiot, and yes I do agree that Lee seems expensive initially....I can't quite remember but I think that 400 is the call out fee? Or is that 180? My idea of the prices is probably completely antiquated anyhow. What I do find with him, is that he does his level best to save you the big bucks when it comes to re building, and he has done that for me twice, and also manages to fix some things under the warrantee all just on his call out fee. Have been eyeing up my router and printer with trepidation for the last few months believe it or not....think i may have to call Lee too! Hope somone comes up with something for you.
