Laptops have become essential for work, learning, and everyday life. But just like any machine, they can run into problems. At DigiRepairLLC, we see and solve these issues every day — and today we’re sharing some of the most common laptop problems and how you can fix them (or when to call a pro!).
🔋 1. Laptop Not Charging

Fix:
- Check the power socket and adapter cable.

If it still doesn’t work, the battery or charging circuit may need professional attention.

🔊 5. No Sound from Speakers
Problem: You can’t hear audio during calls, videos, or games.
