This is the place to go for honest, expert advice and service. Ive gone to see Eric several times now for laptop and desktop related issues. He always takes time to listen to me and even begins some type of initial computer examination while I am in his store. Unlike some places where I get told to "leave my name and well get back to you". One time I thought that someone had hacked into my desktop. I felt that any computer repair service could now begin all sorts of extensive and expensive repairs in order to clean the computer. Eric ran an overnight diagnostic and found nothing wrong on my hard drive. He charged a very minimal fee, honestly claiming that he really didnt find much wrong. When my laptop broke, Eric sold me a used laptop that suits my needs perfectly and charged a reasonable price for it. Lately, he built an older Pentium computer for me because my 2002 version of AutoCad wont run so well on the newer 64 bit processors. Again I paid a fair and affordable price. I am very pleased to have found Erics store. I can call him anytime or drop by his business if I just need advice and he is helpful and genuinely interested. Tom Chivari

I really like this place, i really do. I came in during closing hour with a failed laptop, a midterm paper due in two days, and a mentally compromised mind...I was doomed. Eric( i think that was his name) was so nice to take the time to look at it, we resolved the problem that it was a failed hard drive and retrieved my midterm papers in no time. He made me realize that theres just some people in this world who really love to do what they do and are willing to help you even if your taking away their time. MUST GO if you have any problems with PC,laptops, and he knows quite a bit on macs. Selections of Laptop,Desktops,monitors, GFX cards, spare wires, and everything you need to get youre stuff running again. Really like this place. Cant stressed it enough.... he is so nice and very knowledgeable. Please go to this guy, he deserves better. Oh yea.. did i mention that hes so nice?

My efforts at trying to configure my newly upgrade computer (to Windows 10) to remove the login requirement failed spectacularly. I did a factory reset (as suggested by many friends), only to be met by a blue screen that told me I had an inaccessible boot device. My computer was in a constant state of restart. Enter Eric. Very friendly. Listened patiently as I explained my goof and said I could drop the computer off any time and hed take a look at it. His guess was a bad hard drive. When we picked the computer up, Eric explained that it wasnt the hard drive and that Windows just needed to be reinstalled (properly I would imagine). He put Windows 7 (yay!) back on the computer, and we were up and running! My husband dealt with Eric, but he mentioned that he was reasonable, honest, and so nice. I told him "thats exactly what his other reviews say." Thanks again!

I downloaded and installed a new browser and found that my laptop only gave me my screen saver when I tried it, no toolbar, no mouse, no nothing. Yikes! I manually turned my computer off and on several times and got the same thing. My (laptop) life flashed before my eyes. OMG, what have I done? I immediately took it to Emax Computers on Parmer. Id never been there before, but had made a mental note of their shop in case I ever needed them. Eric took a look at it and had it up and running within minutes. He also removed a lot of "stuff" that was slowing it down and a few things I had no idea how they even got on my computer. I definitely recommend them and will go back to them if (when) Im ever in need of their services again.

My lap top crashed the day before my vacation. I knew I needed a new lap top but kept putting it off. This time the thing didnt even turn on. My OS was not launching anymore. I needed help ASAP to do my billing. I called everyone and no one could help the same day. I stumbled across Eric on Parmer lane and gave him a call around 1:30 pm, he answered and told me to bring it. By 2:30, I was out the door with a used lap top I purchased from him and my program and all the data transferred over. Save! He only charged for the used lap top, I would have paid 3xs that. Eric you rock!

Thank you, Eric, for your quick turnaround time and expertise and kindness! I spent a day and a half trying to self-diagnose and self-fix my laptop (all .exe programs went totally wonky.) Eric at EMax was recommended by some neighbors, so I took my laptop there on a Saturday morning and before noon on Monday, he was calling, that it was cleaned up, rectified and ready to be picked up. At a very fair price, I might add. Totally recommend Emax to anyone. Will definitely be back, if I need to be back! THANKS AGAIN, ERIC!

Eric is very helpful if you are looking for information on something or just getting help with your computer he gave me great advice on what video card i should get and where i could get it from because he didnt have it in his store but he was extremely helpful and im glad he runs the store. He also gave me some interesting info on the computers he was selling and they were pretty good for the price. This would be the place to take your computer to if it wasnt running properly. :)

My Dell Laptop was broken in just 4 months and Dell said, it had just 100 days warranty (I would not recommend Dell) and Im required to replace motherboard (Dell, you kidding?) on my own, would cost me easily 400-500 bucks. I almost gave up on it and I read reviews of Eric and I thought let me try. He FIXED my laptop in just $40, can you believe. He got magic touch, He is the most knowledgeable and honest person I ever came across in repair industries. Thank you Eric.

I went in to ask for help with my husbands laptop. It was giving us problems and had locked us out. Eric was so kind and helpful. He corrected whatever was wrong and while we waited we had a very nice conversation about his shop and his family. He was so helpful and friendly and I feel so secure now to know I have someone I can go to for help with our computers. I recommend Emax Computer Repair highly and will keep his information at hand. Thank you Eric! Pat

This place is the best! I had an external hard drive fail on me with over 400GB of family pictures on it!!! I had tried a few places and the quoted prices were ridiculous. Eric gave me a fair price. He worked at for a few days, giving me updates along the way. He was able to recover about 97% off of the failed hard drive. Without a doubt, the best service and tech support I have received in all my trips to computer repair store.
