Dear all,

I have a Dell Inspiron 8500 which has been of great service to me for the last 4 years. However the screen or graphics chip has come asunder as I can no longer see anything.

I know the hard drive is ok as I can log on to the shared folders via the desktop. What I need is a place in Pattaya that I can take it to for them to check out what the actual

problem is, and fix it. They need to be reputable, reliable, non-ripoff and hopefully at least understand English well enough for me to explain stuff. I'm asking a lot I know!

I refuse to deal with Dell for a multitude of reasons.

If someone can recommend a dealer/service place I would be most appreciative.

Thanks in advance,

Fossil.

Off to TUKCOM for you.

Third floor. Out of the lift, it's the second shop on the right.

You'll know whether they can help or not quite quickly.

Many thanks, I was afraid someone was going to suggest there! Not really, just trying to find out if there were other places. Thanks again.

Tukcom, not sure what floor 3rd or 4th, the guy has a poney tail and speaks perfect English, if he can't fix it I don't know who could...he fixed my problems tons of times and his shop is always totally full of foreigners.

He's the shop that gives you a free soda just for visiting his shop, is that the guy you are talking about?

No, this one has a birthmark or some such on his face, so is easily recognisable.

Another TUKCOM operator whom I trust, couldn't fix the problem with my laptop, so passed my job on to my current recommendation.

i second that recomendation, he only does laptops, he speaks english well and gives good service at reasonable prices. he repacks laptop batteries too. good guy
