Hi Vienna, that story you tell is unfortunately quite common, here in the uk there was a tv program doing a similar thing, with hidden cameras in homes with actors playing the part of the homeowner calling out tradesmen. Many times they misdiagnosed the fault sometimes quite worryingly or they just blatantly did unnecessary and costly repairs.
Fortunately the small company I took it to I have used before and found them very genuine and very reasonable. The SSD I fitted myself and they installed windows along with all the updates and drivers and I can gladly report that its now running as good if not better than it ever did, along with a happy daughter.
Cheers Bert.
