Winchester Computers

John W, at the new Ormand Beach store, built me a BEAST of a system for iRacing.

Awful. Just awful. Tech misdiagnosed what was wrong. Repeatedly. Suggested I buy a new computer. Once I did, he couldn't figure out how to install an upgraded hard drive. (This is after the tech said my brand new SSD 2 TB hard drive would fit any new computer.wrong!) Owner apparently just owns the business and doesn't know computers. He was a bully.

He's left to trust any tech he has that doesn't know what they're doing. I took my old and new computers to Sheryl at Computers by the Sea.she not only upgraded the hard drive in my new computer, but got my old laptop running good as new, and discovered that my old motherboard was just fine (despite tech at Winchester's "guess"). She also discovered missing and stripped screws on the back of my old laptop and missing screws from where my battery attaches. Winchester is the only place that has ever touched my computer and opened it up.

This place has cost me hundreds and hundreds of dollars plus the guidance to buy a new computer which was, of course, more money. And you know what the owner actually seemed upset about? That his tech didn't suggest we get a computer from him.

I purchased my very first computer from Winchester some years back, then a second one and when the time comes for a third I will again return. My nephew has purchased from them and one of my sisters has done the same. You cannot find a more patient and professional staff then the employees of WC, or a more personable owner than Scott. I highly recommend you give them a try and find out what the meaning of great service is!

I had the opportunity to be served by Josh. He was professional, honest, and forthcoming. But what blew my mind, was how effecient my computer worked after being repaired by Josh. It's amazing! Thank You Josh and Winchester! T. Nelson

I went in there today and they were FABULOUS! Extremely helpful and they solved my problem in 5 minutes. I was so worried that I had a virus, but it turned out that there was a problem with my laptop booting up because I left a movie in the dvd drive. THANK YOU so much to the employee that helped me, I am truly grateful!

I went here years ago and they took a 16gb ssd out of my Dell laptop. I only realized it when it was too late and someone else was helping me with that pc. They said that Dell laptop's motherboard was dying and that there was no point in keeping it. It still works to this day.

I asked them to diagnose and repair my desktop, which had been having intermittent Blue Screens of Death problems, along with many of my programs crashing nearly constantly. They were friendly enough. I try to keep in mind that they were flooded with repair requests, and that the nature of my computer's problem made repair difficult. But they had my desktop for 9 days, for which I paid ~$30 up front, and all they could tell me after all that time was that it was probably an issue with my video driver. but they weren't sure.

I was told I should probably just buy a new computer. at their store. The most frustrating thing is that I had already ruled out a video driver problem before handing this to them. The issue persisted over 3 different video cards of different brands PLUS a complete reformat of the hard drive, and they knew this. They obviously had no clue what they were doing and gave up, thinking I was not competent enough to notice their laziness.

In short: They took my money and did nothing, then tried to upsell me. The issues came back, or rather never left. It took me about to hour to get it to crash, which shows that these people didn't even try.

I've had years and years of outstanding service from everyone at Winchester Computers. The company and it's owner, Robert, are easily the most knowledgable, reliable and trust-worthy company around. He's transparent about the repair diagnostics and tops the A+ service with affordable rates. I highly recommend them for all computer fixes, especially Apple equipment.

I can't say enough good words to describe Winchester. The staff rocks! Always willing to help and repair any and I mean any issue with our laptop. Great, great place to buy a computer, laptop and everything that goes with them. Look no further for a desktop or laptop and all the bells and whistles that go with them.

I bought a purpose built PC for virtual reality and iRacing from Winchester almost 2 years ago. John W knew exactly what I needed and the computer has worked flawlessly from the moment I fired it up. They get recommended by me anytime anyone asks for a computer.
