Gaming consoles are great devices, which come with a variety of uses and features, and increase with every model upgrade.
One of the latest console models is the PS5, with elements such as adaptive triggers on the controllers, a game hub, cross-generation multiplayer, improved sound and graphics, and more.
However, like all devices, the PlayStation 5 is exposed to wear and tear, as well as bugs and other software issues – and this is where Atom I.T. Repairs comes in, providing practical, efficient and affordable solutions to your problems.
Here are the common console problems that we can tackle with PS5s:
-
Overheating Consoles
For overheating issues with your console, it may either need a cleaning due to dirt or dust, or it may be a sign of requiring a more thorough inspection and repair – both of which we can provide. Careful, the PS5 has a very specific thermal dissipation architecture. Professional handling is your way to go here. Leave this to people that know exactly what is needed and are qualified to do so.
-
Crashes & Freezing
In case of consoles crashing whilst on or in rest/standby mode, console software repair is often needed. This requires a quick check from our repair specialists, in which we are happy to help sort out.
-
Network issues
In cases where you are having trouble connecting to the PlayStation Network or connecting to the Wi-Fi, this requires a look into checking how the console responds to a wireless network and the PSN Network, or if it’s the case of something not working with the console.
-
Screen Display Issues
Display issues can be the cause of hardware issues such as the HDMI cable, or software issues such as PS5 firmware or VTR (Video Transfer Rate), which needs to be looked at by a specialist, more often than not.
-
Hard Drive Issues
The hard drive on the PS5 may experience issues when transferring data, or experience other software issues such as file corruption or loss.
-
Power Issues
Issues such as the PS5 not being able to turn on or stay on, such as freezing during games. These kinds of issues require testing both the hardware and software of the console, with various checks to find the issue, which are done with great issue and care. In most cases, a quick look-through is all that is needed, or some minor repairs/replacement.
-
