Lenovo ThinkCentre M91p Repair — your questions answered
How much does it cost to repair a Lenovo ThinkCentre M91p that won’t turn on?
A dead M91p is most often the 280 W power supply; we test with a spare unit first. Replacement typically costs $145-$195 including labour and carries our 90-day warranty. If the motherboard is also damaged the repair may not be economical.
Can you upgrade my M91p to Windows 11?
Windows 11 officially requires TPM 2.0, which the M91p lacks. We install a clean Windows 10 image with all updates and drivers, or guide you on supported alternatives such as Linux Mint if you prefer.
Is it worth replacing the hard drive in an M91p?
Yes. Swapping the ageing 3.5-inch HDD for a 500 GB or 1 TB SSD usually costs from $189 fitted and makes the machine noticeably faster. We clone your data first so nothing is lost.
Do you offer onsite service for the ThinkCentre M91p in regional areas?
Our technicians cover metro and many regional postcodes for a flat call-out from $89. Remote diagnostics via TeamViewer are also available if you prefer not to wait for a visit.
What warranty comes with M91p repairs?
All parts and labour carry a 90-day warranty. If the same fault returns within that period we fix it again at no charge, provided the machine has not been opened by another party.
