- Fix PCs beginners guide: master the full repair loop in your first session.
- Repair cycle: accept order, diagnose, workbench swap, benchmark, deliver.
- Early money: take simple loose-cable and single-part jobs first.
- First upgrades: better tools, then a second workbench.
- Key rule: benchmark must pass before the customer accepts the PC.
Getting Started: How Fix PCs Works
Fix PCs by DEVTEC STUDIOS puts you in charge of your own PC repair shop on Roblox. Customers bring in broken computers, and your job is to diagnose the fault, open the case, replace or reseat faulty components from a roster of 192 PC parts, and verify the repair with a benchmark test before handing the machine back for Cash and XP.
Every order follows the same core loop, which makes the game very beginner-friendly once you understand the rhythm:
| Stage | What You Do | Where |
|---|---|---|
| Accept order | Talk to a waiting customer, take the repair ticket | Order counter |
| Diagnose | Scan the PC to find the failing component | Anywhere |
| Transport | Carry the PC to your bench | Workbench |
| Repair | Unscrew, swap parts, reconnect cables | Workbench |
| Test | Power on and run the benchmark | Workbench |
| Deliver | Return the PC and collect payment | Customer |
Always check the ticket requirements before swapping parts. Installing the wrong component means redoing the job — some orders specify a required part tier.
The Repair Loop Step-by-Step
This is the exact sequence for completing your first orders. Follow it a few times and it becomes second nature.
Accept a customer order
Walk up to a waiting customer or the order counter and interact to accept a repair ticket. The ticket tells you which PC needs work — head to the shelf or counter where that PC sits.
Diagnose the fault
Use the diagnostic tool on the customer's PC. The scan points to the failing component — a dead GPU, faulty RAM, a failing PSU, or sometimes just loose cables.
Bring the PC to your workbench
Carry the PC to your bench and place it down. All disassembly and part swaps happen at the workbench — you can't repair a PC sitting on a random counter.
Open the case and remove the broken part
Unscrew the side panel with your screwdriver, then unscrew the faulty component. Hold left-click on each screw and follow the on-screen motion to twist it out. Keep track of screws.
Install the replacement part
Grab the correct replacement from your inventory (press Tab), screw it firmly into place, and reconnect any power or data cables that were detached.
Close up and run the benchmark
Reattach the side panel, plug the PC in, and power it on. Run the benchmark to verify the repair — a passing score confirms the fix.
Deliver and get paid
Return the repaired PC to the customer and collect your Cash. Start with simple orders (loose cables, single-part swaps) and reinvest in tools.
If the benchmark fails, something is still loose or wrong. Check that all screws are seated, the PSU is connected to the motherboard, and the PSU power switch is flipped before tearing the build apart.
Early Money and Upgrade Priority
New players often stall because they overspend on parts or skip tool upgrades. Money in Fix PCs comes down to three things: picking profitable orders, cutting repair time, and spending Cash in the right order.
| Priority | Upgrade | Why It Matters |
|---|---|---|
| 1 | Better screwdriver & tools | Speeds up every screw, cable, and diagnosis on every order |
| 2 | Second workbench | Work on two PCs at once, doubles throughput |
| 3 | Shelving & storage | Stock more parts, take more simultaneous orders |
| 4 | Parts inventory | Keep high-demand GPUs, RAM, PSUs in stock |
Prioritize Payouts
- Premium part swaps (flagship GPUs, high-end CPUs) pay far more
- Skip low-margin loose-cable jobs when busy
Diagnose Faster
- Memorize common fault patterns
- Keep top-selling parts within arm's reach
Stock Smart
- Balanced inventory of GPUs, RAM, PSUs
- Restock top sellers first; avoid niche hoarding
Complete small diagnostic jobs first, or sell spare parts you've removed from previous orders. Both are reliable early-income sources before your shop scales up.
Controls and Common Sticking Points
The control scheme is simple, but the physical screw-and-cable mechanics trip up new players. Here's the reference table:
| Input | Action |
|---|---|
| WASD | Move |
| Mouse | Look around |
| Left-click | Interact, pick up parts, unscrew |
| E | Talk to NPCs, place items on workbench |
| Tab | Open parts inventory |
| Q | Drop held item |
| Scroll / Number keys | Cycle tools (screwdriver, diagnostic) |
| Problem | Solution |
|---|---|
| Part won't come out | Check for remaining screws or an attached power cable |
| PC won't power on | Confirm PSU is connected to motherboard and switch is flipped |
| Ticket won't complete | Compare installed parts against ticket tier requirements |
| Benchmark score is low | Unbalanced builds are penalized — match CPU and GPU tiers |
Reassembly works in reverse: screws and cables must be fully seated before a part registers as installed. Half-done connections are the #1 cause of failed benchmarks for beginners.
First Session Checklist
Run through this list in your first hour to set your shop up for fast growth:
Beginner Milestones:
- Complete your first repair order end-to-end
- Pass a benchmark test on the first try
- Upgrade your screwdriver and tools
- Learn the common fault-to-part patterns
- Save toward a second workbench
Grouping similar orders together means fewer tool swaps and faster turnover — more completed repairs per hour means more Cash per hour.
FAQ
Q: What is the goal of this Fix PCs beginners guide?
It walks new players through the full repair loop — accepting orders, diagnosing faults, swapping parts at the workbench, running benchmark tests, and getting paid — plus early money and upgrade priorities.
Q: Can I repair a PC anywhere other than the workbench?
No. You must carry the customer's PC to your workbench to open the build view and swap components. Repairs can't be done on random counters or shelves.
Q: Why does my benchmark keep failing?
Usually a loose screw, an unseated cable, or a PSU that isn't connected and switched on. Also check for unbalanced builds — pairing a weak PSU with high-end parts fails the benchmark.
Q: What should I buy first with my earnings?
Upgrade your tools first — a quality screwdriver and better diagnostic equipment cut minutes off every order. After that, save for a second workbench and expanded shelving.
