Computer & Laptop Support

Most computer problems have a short list of likely causes.

A laptop that takes four minutes to boot, a desktop that freezes during video calls, a machine that shuts down without warning — these symptoms feel identical to the person experiencing them, but they come from very different places: a failing drive, a thermal problem, a driver conflict, or simply a disk that has nothing left to breathe.

Horjely starts with what you noticed, not with a diagnostic term you had to look up. You describe the behaviour, when it started, and what changed. The assistant narrows the likely causes, tells you what is safe to try yourself, and flags the moment a technician should take over.

Common problems

What people usually describe.

These are the symptoms we hear most in this category — and what typically sits behind them.

Boots slowly or hangs on the logo screen

Usually a failing storage drive, a corrupted startup service, or a pending update that never finished installing.

Fans run loudly and the case gets hot

Dust-clogged heatsinks, degraded thermal paste, or a background process quietly pinning the CPU at 100%.

Random shutdowns and blue screens

Often memory faults, unstable drivers, or a power supply that can no longer hold load under demand.

Battery drains in under an hour

Worn battery cells, aggressive background apps, or a charging circuit that is no longer delivering full power.

Screen flickers, blacks out, or shows artifacts

Loose display cable, GPU driver problems, or an aging panel and backlight assembly.

Won't turn on at all

Charger and power delivery issues, a dead CMOS battery, or a motherboard fault that needs bench testing.

What Horjely can diagnose

What the assistant can figure out for you.

  • Whether your symptoms point to storage, memory, thermal, or software causes
  • Which safe checks to run first, in the right order
  • Whether recent changes (an update, a new app, a spill, a drop) explain the behaviour
  • How urgent the problem is and what risks your data is under
  • Which professional service matches your issue, and roughly what it should cost

When you need a professional

The point where a human should take over.

AI is honest about its limits. These situations go straight to a verified specialist.

  • The machine shows no signs of power after basic charger checks
  • You hear clicking from the drive or files have started disappearing
  • Liquid damage, a drop, or visible physical damage is involved
  • Diagnosis points to motherboard, GPU, or power-supply level repair
  • Data recovery matters more than getting the machine running again

What's included

Everything in this service.

  • AI symptom interview and structured problem summary
  • Likely-cause ranking with a confidence score
  • Step-by-step guided checks you can perform safely
  • Health review guidance for storage, memory, and temperatures
  • Written recommendation of the right next service
  • Optional handoff to a specialist with your full diagnosis attached

How it works

The process, step by step.

  1. 01

    Describe the behaviour

    Tell Horjely what the computer does, when it started, and what you were doing at the time.

  2. 02

    Answer a few follow-ups

    The assistant asks targeted questions to separate software causes from hardware ones.

  3. 03

    Review the diagnosis

    You get ranked possible causes, a confidence score, and a plain-English explanation.

  4. 04

    Fix it or hand it over

    Follow guided steps yourself, or send the diagnosis to a specialist for remote or in-person work.

In depth

How Horjely approaches computer & laptop.

The reasoning behind the diagnosis, so you know what you are paying for before you spend a single Credit.

What we look at first

Every computer case starts with the same three questions: what changed recently, how the machine behaves from a cold start, and whether the fault follows the software or the hardware. That ordering matters — a slow boot caused by a dying SSD looks identical to one caused by a corrupted update, but only one of them is worth spending money on parts for.

Hardware faults versus software faults

Thermal throttling, failing storage, degraded batteries and unstable memory are physical problems that get worse with time. Driver conflicts, bloated startup lists, broken updates and disk-space exhaustion are software problems that a guided remote session usually resolves the same day. The AI diagnosis separates the two before you commit Credits to anything.

What you get at the end

A written diagnosis with the most likely cause, a confidence score, the safe steps you can take yourself, and a Credit estimate for the work if you'd rather hand it to a specialist. Nothing is deducted until the service is delivered.

Typical cost

What this usually costs in Credits.

One Credit costs 0.10 EUR. You always see an estimate before anything starts.
