There are many computer repairs that the average person can complete without much problem. Things like installing CD-ROM drives, sound cards and other expansion cards don't take much computer knowledge. How can you identify, though, whether you are in over your head and need professional computer help?
Some computer repairs are difficult for the typical person to do without causing ruin to their computer or a peripheral. There are some repairs I'd classify as beginner level, some as intermediate and others as advanced. I've already mentioned some repairs I would refer to as beginner level. Some intermediate repairs include replacing your hard drive and installing an operating system. There was a time when something like this was advanced, but with modern Microsoft operating systems like Windows 7 and Windows Vista, operating system installations are not as difficult as they once were.
So what maintenance should a beginner not attempt? I would suggest things like replacing your motherboard. The need to replace your motherboard can come either when you are primed to upgrade your motherboard to something newer or when your computer case power supply kicks the bucket.
A further repair I would caution against is based in software. That's when you have to clean out a nasty virus or spyware program. It is really easy to incite much grief if you don't do it correctly. You could lose access to the data on your hard drive if you mess up your operating system. Now if you are not bothered about the data on your hard drive, simply re-installing your operating system while making sure to format your hard drive can for the most part solve a software problem. Kind of like bumping off a fly with a large shovel. It works but it is overkill. A qualified computer repair technician can help you keep your data complete while ridding you of a virus infection.
