Random crashes and blue screens on a Lorton computer usually trace back to a driver, a bad memory module, a failing drive or heat. We test each possibility at your home or office so the fix addresses the real cause.
We visit homes near Lorton Station and Mason Neck and businesses along Route 1. After the repair, we run the computer under load to confirm the crashes have stopped.

Why Lorton relies on us
Plain Explanations
You will know what caused the crash and what we changed to stop it.
Updates Sorted
We roll back or finish updates that started the crashes.
Monitoring Set Up
We can set alerts that warn you before heat or drive errors cause a crash.
Crash Problems We Fix
Conflicting drivers
Two drivers fighting over the same device can cause crashes. We resolve the conflict.
Overheating shutdowns
We check temperatures under load and fix cooling problems that cause crashes.
Memory-related crashes
Crashes that seem random often come from memory errors. We test it and replace faulty sticks.
Drive errors
A drive with errors can cause crashes and lost files. We test it and replace it if needed.
Software clashes
We find the software causing crashes and update or reinstall it.
Blue screen errors
We read the stop codes and crash dumps behind blue screens to find the real cause.
Frozen screens
When the screen freezes and nothing responds, we find out why and correct it.
Restart loops
We stop unexpected reboots by repairing the power, cooling or software issue behind them.
Crashes on dusty office computers
Computers that sit near workshops or garages pull in a lot of dust. That dust traps heat, and heat causes crashes. We clean the inside of the computer, check the fans and set up temperature monitoring so you get a warning before it overheats again.
