Laptop Not Starting? Wizardtec Delivers Fast, Reliable Computer Repairs in Wauchope & Port Macquarie
At Wizardtec, we recently helped a local client with a laptop that wouldn’t start—an issue that can be stressful, especially when important files and documents are at stake.
🔧 The Issue: Laptop Not Charging
The laptop had completely drained its battery and wouldn’t power on. After a quick diagnostic, we found the AC adapter wasn’t charging the battery due to a loose connection at the laptop’s charging port. Once reconnected properly, the battery began charging and the laptop powered up again.
This is a common issue we see in our Computer Repairs service across Wauchope and Port Macquarie.
💾 The Real Concern: Data Backup
Once the laptop was running, we turned our attention to the client’s data. They weren’t sure if their files were backed up. We checked their Microsoft 365 OneDrive setup and found that while some files were safely stored in the cloud, others were only on the local drive.
To ensure complete data protection, we:
Synced all OneDrive files to both the cloud and the local device.
Set up a new external USB hard drive for regular backups.
Implemented the 3-2-1 backup strategy:
✅ 3 copies of data
✅ 2 different storage types
✅ 1 offsite (cloud-based) backup
This is part of our proactive approach to IT Support—helping clients avoid data loss before it happens.
🛡️ Security Upgrade
We also reviewed the laptop’s security setup. It was only running Windows Security, which offers basic protection. We recommended upgrading to ESET Endpoint Security for more robust, business-grade protection.
