Windows 8.1 Corrupted

[lots2seeinmyrv]

I have an Asus Model S56C laptop that is about 2-1/2 years old with windows 8.1 that is corrupted. Staples is charging 199.00 to back up data and reinstall 8.1 and put my Microsoft Office back on and my data....then upgrade to Windows 10.

My concern is if I pay 200 bucks and still have problems...is it better to just put the money towards a new laptop?

Thank you for your input.

My home computer had windows 7 corrupted. They saved files and re-loaded windows 7 and it was about $170. So price appears about the same.
