Hardware Diagnostics & Component Repair in Alexandria
When your computer stops working, it's not always obvious what's wrong. Mount Vernon Computers provides professional hardware diagnostics for homes and businesses across Alexandria. We use specialized tools and years of hands-on experience to pinpoint failing components — motherboards, RAM, hard drives, power supplies, and more — then replace them with quality parts so your system runs reliably again.
From a clicking hard drive to a motherboard that won't post, we've seen it all. Our on-site service throughout Alexandria and Northern Virginia means you don't have to haul your computer to a shop and wait days for answers. We come to you, diagnose the problem on the spot, and get your machine back in working order — often in a single visit.

Honest Assessments
You'll get a clear explanation of what's wrong and whether repair makes financial sense — before any work begins.
What We Diagnose & Repair
We test for bad sectors, failing drives, and data corruption — and replace drives while preserving your files whenever possible.
Random shutdowns and failure to power on often point to the power supply. We test and replace them on-site.
No POST, beep codes, or dead ports? We diagnose motherboard-level issues and advise on repair vs. replacement.
Blue screens and random crashes can stem from faulty memory. We test each stick and replace or upgrade as needed.
Overheating causes throttling and shutdowns. We clean, replace fans, and reapply thermal paste to restore proper cooling.
Display artifacts, crashes during games, or no video output — we diagnose GPU issues and replace cards when needed.
Loose USB ports, broken HDMI, or a damaged charging jack — we repair or replace damaged connectors.
We resolve boot failures, BIOS corruption, and firmware update problems that prevent your system from starting.
Honest Diagnostics, No Guesswork
We never replace parts without confirming the diagnosis first. You'll get a clear explanation of what's wrong, what it costs to fix, and whether a repair makes financial sense — before any work begins.
Daryl replaced the hard drive on my wife's laptop, and the entire process, including scheduling, was fast, efficient, and at a very fair price. His communication was timely and clear, and the repair was done right. Highly recommended!Read full review
My teenager did not properly back up her laptop. So, when it totally crashed she lost access to her English final and all her junior year school files. In a panic we called Daryl on a Sat morning. He was able to retrieve all her files and make them available for use on either a PC or Mac. We have both and were not sure which computer would be used to finish up the school year. We had the all her files by 6pm that same Sat. You will not go wrong with Daryl. His prices are reasonable and we found him knowledgeable and honest. We will be using Daryl again for any future problems.Read full review
