TechZone Service Center
The TechZone Service Center is the computer repair center for the Illinois State University community. No matter where the computer was purchased or what brand the computer is, we will be able to evaluate your computer.
Our walk-up counter is not only staffed by TechZone employees but also employees from ResNet and the Technology Support Center that are ready to answer your technology questions. Many problems can be fixed right at the counter!
Repair Time and Status
We work on a first-come first-served basis, so repair time depends on how many computers are awaiting evaluation. While we cannot give an expected completion date, you will be contacted with any updates during the repair or when the repair is completed.
If you would like to check the status of your computer, you can:
- E-mail us at TechZone@IllinoisState.edu. Be sure to include your ULID, your preferred contact information, and any specific questions that you might have.
- Call us at (309) 438-8334. You will be directed to a TechZone Service Center associate for assistance. If no one is available, please leave a voicemail. It will be returned as soon as an associate is available.
- Stop by the TechZone Service Center walk-up counter, located on the 2nd floor of the Bone Student Center (across from the ISU Bookstore) during business hours.
Pricing and Payment
We offer a variety of services many that are free while others are provided for a fee. We accept most major credit cards, debit cards, checks, and redbird dollars. Unfortunately, we cannot accept cash or bill your student account.
