Yes. Inceptial Systems replaces cracked, dim, flickering, and line-displaying laptop screens for all brands in Nairobi. We stock original LCD and LED panels for HP, Dell, MacBook, Lenovo, Asus, Acer, Toshiba, Sony VAIO, and more. Most screen replacements are completed within 2 hours.

Yes. We replace touch screen assemblies on convertible and 2-in-1 laptops including touch-enabled HP, Dell, and Lenovo models.

The cost depends on your laptop brand, model, and screen resolution. You pay for the screen only — installation is always included at no extra charge. Call +254 712 787625 for an instant quote.

Most screen replacements are completed in under 2 hours at our Nairobi CBD shop.

Yes — all screen replacements come with a 90-day warranty.

Not necessarily always, but usually yes if the battery is old. First check: lower your screen brightness, close background apps, and enable battery saver mode. If the problem persists, the battery cells have degraded and replacement is needed.

Yes, unexpected shutdowns at partial charge are a classic sign of a degraded battery that can no longer hold an accurate charge. Inceptial Systems can replace it the same day.

Yes. We are one of Nairobi's specialist MacBook battery replacement centres, stocking genuine Apple-compatible batteries for MacBook Air and MacBook Pro across multiple generations.

Typically 30 to 60 minutes. You pay for the battery — installation is always free.

Yes. A swollen battery is a safety risk and should be addressed immediately. Stop using the laptop and bring it to Inceptial Systems as soon as possible.

The most common causes in Nairobi are overheating from dust-blocked vents, insufficient RAM, a failing hard drive, or malware. Inceptial Systems provides a free diagnosis to identify the exact cause before quoting any repair.

Yes. BSOD errors are most commonly caused by RAM issues, hard drive failure, or driver conflicts. We fix BSOD errors for all Windows and MacBook laptop models.

No. We never format or reinstall without your explicit approval, and we always attempt a data backup before any major procedure. Most hanging fixes leave your files completely untouched.

Software fixes like virus removal are completed the same day. Hardware upgrades such as RAM or SSD replacement take 1 to 2 hours.

If insufficient RAM is the bottleneck — which it often is on older machines running modern software — a RAM upgrade delivers an immediate and very noticeable performance improvement.

8GB for everyday use, 16GB for professionals and developers, 32GB for heavy multitasking and demanding software. Basic browsing and document work can manage on 4GB but will feel limited.

We stock DDR3, DDR4, and DDR5 modules in 4GB, 8GB, 16GB, and 32GB capacities for all compatible laptop brands.

Under 30 minutes. The performance improvement is immediate from the very next boot.

Yes — we run a free compatibility check to confirm the correct memory type and maximum capacity your specific laptop model supports before any purchase.

Yes — upgrading from an HDD to an SSD is the single most impactful upgrade for an older, slow laptop. Boot times drop from minutes to seconds, and applications open nearly instantly.

Clicking or grinding noises from a laptop are serious warning signs of a failing hard drive. Bring your laptop to Inceptial Systems immediately — the sooner we act, the better the chance of recovering your data.

Yes. Full data migration is included — all your files, applications, and settings are transferred to the new drive. You do not lose anything.

Most SSD upgrades including full data migration are completed within 1 hour at our Nairobi shop.

Yes. Inceptial Systems offers data recovery services for crashed and failing hard drives. Bring the drive in as soon as possible for the best recovery outcome.

This typically means the cooling vents are clogged with dust or the thermal paste has dried out. Inceptial Systems carries out a full overheating repair including fan cleaning and thermal paste replacement. Same-day service available.

Sudden unexpected shutdowns are one of the primary symptoms of overheating. The laptop is protecting itself. This needs professional attention before the sustained heat causes permanent component damage.

Always use your laptop on a hard, flat surface. Never block the bottom vents with a pillow or bed. Book an annual general service to keep the internal cooling system clean.

The cause could be a software fault, a hardware fault (loose display cable, faulty backlight, RAM issue), or simply zero screen brightness. Inceptial Systems diagnoses the exact cause with a free assessment.

Connect your laptop to an external monitor using an HDMI cable. If the external monitor displays correctly, the fault is in the laptop screen or its cable. If the external monitor is also blank, the fault is more likely graphics or motherboard related.

This is called the Mac Black Screen of Death, which can be caused by hardware or software. Inceptial Systems diagnoses and fixes this for all MacBook models.

A completely dead laptop is a strong indicator of a motherboard fault, but it could also be a dead battery, faulty charger, or failed power jack. Inceptial Systems runs a free chip-level diagnosis to identify the exact fault before quoting any work.

Not necessarily. Inceptial Systems specialises in chip-level and component-level motherboard repair — replacing the specific failed component rather than the entire board, which is significantly more affordable.

Yes. MacBook logic board repair is one of our specialist services, covering power circuit faults, GPU failures, charging controller failures, and liquid damage to the logic board.

It depends on the extent and location of the damage. In many cases only the affected panel needs replacement. Inceptial Systems assesses each case individually to recommend the most cost-effective solution.

No. Casing replacement is purely cosmetic and structural — it restores appearance and proper protection of internal components without affecting performance.

Yes. Key faults can be hardware (physical damage, liquid damage, worn mechanism) or software (driver issue). We diagnose the root cause first before recommending a replacement or repair.

Most keyboard replacements are completed within 1 hour at our Nairobi CBD shop.

It could be either. Incorrect keyboard language settings in Windows or macOS can cause wrong characters, as can a physical fault. We diagnose this for free.

Possible causes include a faulty charger or cable, a damaged charging port (DC jack or USB-C), a degraded battery, or a motherboard charging circuit fault. Accurate diagnosis is needed before replacing any component.

This is a classic symptom of a loose, cracked, or partially desoldered DC power jack. It needs repair before it gets worse or damages the charging circuit.

Yes. We stock original chargers for all major brands including Apple MacBook, HP, Dell, Lenovo, Asus, Acer, Toshiba, Microsoft, and Sony VAIO.

First check whether it has been accidentally disabled using the function key (Fn + touchpad key). In Windows, check Device Manager for driver errors. If software checks find nothing, the fault is hardware and requires professional diagnosis.

Often yes. A swollen battery pushing against the trackpad from underneath is a common cause of trackpad issues on MacBooks, and replacing the battery resolves the trackpad problem as well.

Not necessarily. A completely dead laptop could be caused by a dead battery, faulty charger, failed power jack, loose RAM, or a motherboard fault. Inceptial Systems diagnoses the exact cause with specialist tools at no charge.

Remove all external devices (USB drives, external monitors, headphones) and try again. Remove the battery if possible, hold the power button for 30 seconds, reconnect and retry. If still no response, bring it to us for chip-level diagnosis.

The charging indicator flickers when the cable is moved, the laptop only charges at a specific angle, the jack wobbles or has cracked, sparks are visible when connecting, or the jack has partially come away from the laptop body.

Yes, in most cases. Many power jack faults are a resoldering issue or a straightforward jack replacement that does not affect the motherboard. Inceptial Systems assesses each case before recommending the repair approach.

Check software first: confirm the speakers are set as the default playback device, check volume levels at both system and application level, and update the audio driver. If audio works through headphones but not speakers, the internal speakers are likely at fault.

Under 1 hour for most models. We test audio output before returning your laptop.

Go to Settings > Privacy > Camera (Windows) and confirm camera access is allowed. Check Device Manager for camera errors. Try the camera in a different application. Update the camera driver. If the camera does not appear in Device Manager at all, hardware diagnosis is needed.

Yes. We replace internal camera modules and repair camera ribbon cables for all major laptop brands and MacBook models.

Yes. Hinge faults range from a loose screw (simple fix) to a cracked or broken hinge mechanism (replacement needed). Inceptial Systems assesses each case to recommend the most cost-effective solution.

Yes. A loose hinge progressively worsens — eventually cracking the casing around the mounting point, damaging the display cable, and in severe cases causing the screen to detach. Address it early.

Yes. A rattling or grinding fan is physically damaged and will fail completely soon. Once the fan stops, the laptop will overheat. Address it before the fan fails entirely.

Not always. If the fan is clogged with dust but otherwise undamaged, thorough cleaning may resolve the noise. If the fan mechanism is damaged, replacement is required. We assess this as part of the free diagnosis.

Turn it off immediately, disconnect the charger, remove the battery if possible, flip the laptop upside down, and bring it to Inceptial Systems as soon as possible. Do not try to turn it on.

Almost certainly yes. Liquid leaves corrosive deposits that continue to damage components for days or weeks after the spill. Professional chemical cleaning is still needed even if the laptop appeared to recover initially.

In many cases, yes — particularly if the drive itself was not directly damaged. Data recovery is assessed as part of the liquid damage repair process.

It could be, but frequent crashes with varying error messages often indicate a hardware fault (failing hard drive, RAM issue, overheating). Inceptial Systems runs a hardware check first to rule this out before attempting software repairs.

Yes, where necessary, but only with your explicit approval and after attempting all less drastic fixes first. We always back up your data before any reinstallation.

These are classic malware symptoms. Inceptial Systems carries out professional-grade virus, malware, spyware, and adware removal using tools beyond standard consumer antivirus software.

Do not pay. Bring the laptop to Inceptial Systems immediately. We assess the extent of encryption and advise on recovery options, which may include restoring from backup.

Keep your OS and applications updated, use a reputable antivirus, be cautious with email attachments and downloads, and back up your data regularly.

Check whether Airplane Mode is enabled. Try the function key for wireless on/off. Restart your router and laptop. If the Wi-Fi adapter does not appear in Device Manager, a hardware fault (wireless card or antenna) is likely and needs professional repair.

Not necessarily. This is often a router or ISP issue rather than a laptop fault. Try connecting a different device to the same Wi-Fi — if the other device also has no internet, the problem is the router or your internet service, not the laptop.

Yes. We replace wireless network cards and repair Wi-Fi antenna cables for all major laptop brands.
