When it is too important to risk
If we cannot get it back, DriveSavers can try
Some drives need a clean room, and some data is too valuable to risk on anything less. When a recovery is beyond what we can do at the shop, or the data is very high value, we send you to DriveSavers, our preferred data recovery partner.
Using DriveSavers
- Give them partner ID DS57796 when you call or start a case
- With that ID you get 10% off and free shipping
- Free evaluation, and no charge if no data comes back
Their advisors answer at 800-440-1904. Tex’s Computer Repair may earn a referral fee if you use them.
How it works
Three steps: no line, no guessing
01
Book a drop-off time
Pick a slot online or call or text. The shop runs by appointment, and the address comes with your confirmation.
02
Hear what is wrong
We find the actual problem and call you with what it needs and what it costs. Nothing gets done until you say so.
03
Pick it up working
You hear what was wrong and what we did, in plain English, plus how to keep it from happening again.
Not in a hurry? Ask about Snail Service, mostly for cleanups and other software jobs. If you can leave the machine with us longer, up to a month, we will quote you a lower price up front. Same work, same care, just more time.
Reviews
From people who brought one in
5 out of 5 stars
Tex did a great job of helping me back up a dying MacBook Pro with a dangerously bulging Lithium-ion battery that Apple so generously glues in so it can’t be easily and safely replaced. He put it in a smoker in his garage in case it blew up and recovered my data.

Tex was great, we really enjoyed working with him. He is easy to work with, easy to get a hold of and did a great job. Got all the stuff we needed off our non working computer over to a new one. He was quick too. Highly recommend.

I have a used MacBook that I needed help setting up, Tex’s Computer helped me get it up and running. The timeframe was fast, the results were great, and the price was reasonable! 5-Stars!

Questions
Straight answers
Do I need an appointment?
Yes, every time. We are often out at customer sites or in remote sessions, so a set time means someone is at the shop to meet you when you arrive.
Why is the address not listed?
The shop runs by appointment, so we send the address with your confirmed time. That way you never make the drive while we are out on a service call.
Can you get files off a dead drive?
It depends on what failed. It starts with a $50 evaluation. We tell you honestly what the chances are and what the recovery would cost, and you decide from there.
Windows 10 support ended. Now what?
Windows 10 keeps working after support ends, and you have real options. Microsoft now offers security updates for home computers through October 12, 2027, a year later than the date it first gave, so older advice may still say October 2026. If your computer was already signed up, Microsoft says the extra year is automatic. If it wasn’t, signing up can be free. From there you can stay on Windows 10 for now, move to Windows 11 if your computer can take it, or replace the machine. We can check where your computer stands and help you pick the one that makes sense, honestly.
