Study Laptops Carry Months of Work
Bentley has a lot of students and researchers. Their laptops hold thesis chapters, datasets, lecture notes and sometimes the only copy of a semester's work.
When a laptop fails, the stress is not about the hardware. It is the files. The first thing we do is check what can be saved, then work out the repair. If you bring it to us as soon as it fails, the chances are much better.
We also help set up a backup that runs on its own, so the next failure is an inconvenience and not a disaster. Our backup and transfer service covers it.

Things That Go Wrong Before a Deadline
The usual causes of a bad week.
A spill on the keyboard
Switch it off and unplug it. Bring it in quickly because speed matters.
The screen is cracked
Repair costs vary. We quote before ordering and say if it is worth it.
Word or research software crashes
Often memory, a full drive or a bad update. We find which.
A virus from a downloaded file
We clean the machine and show you what to avoid.
No backup of a thesis or dataset
We set up automatic backups so your work lives in more than one place.

A simple habit
The Three-Copy Rule for Important Work
Keep your work in three places: the laptop, an external drive and a cloud folder. If one fails, the other two still exist.
Name files clearly and put them in one folder, so you know what to copy. It sounds obvious but saves a lot of panic.
If you are starting a thesis, set up the backup first. It takes ten minutes and could save months.
