Computer Repairs, What do you find works best?

I kick my computer, is what I would do if I was still 13 years old lmao.
To be honest, I first google the issue, and if I can't find the issues resolution, then i try to find some tech support either going to a store or calling a pro.

 

I fix it myself every time. My PC I built from parts and personally installed every program on it, so if anyone knows how to fix it, then it's me. Similar for my old laptop, which started dying a few days before its warranty ran out (internal cooling system, it would have been a brick if the costs weren't covered). I've personally replaced almost every part of that machine except the plastic body and the speakers. Everything else has been changed out by me, so I know that thing inside and out too.

I've never taken my computers to a shop, posted a question on a support forum, or given up because it stopped working. Software and hardware, I fix it myself, even if it means replacing a part or formatting an entire hard drive (though it doesn't often come to that). You'll never catch me getting stuck in this guy's situation.

Drag and drop it, zip, unzip it,
Lock it, fill it, curl it, find it,
View it, code it, jam, unlock it
Surf it, scroll it, pose it, click it
Cross it, crack it, twitch, update it,
Name it, read it, tune it, print it,
Scan it, send it, fax, rename it,
Touch it, bring it, pay it, watch it,

I just take it to my dad or fix it myself. My dad has been working with computers since '83 and can fix most software and programming problems. Other than that I just do maintainance on it every so often and run updates and that fixes most of my problems.
