Ready to Repair

What to Expect

We’ll start by taking apart a desktop tower, identifying components like the power supply, motherboard, and storage drives, and walking through safe troubleshooting practices. Then we’ll move on to laptops, where things get a bit more compact and delicate. Everyone will get hands-on time working on either a desktop or laptop, with guidance throughout.
