Computer Problems?

Have you noticed your computer slowing down lately?

Everything seems slow to launch? Takes forever to do anything?

Occasionally freezes or locks up on you?

Half the programs and games don’t work anymore, or return cryptic error messages?

Illegal Operations? Fatal Errors? Missing DLLs?

Your Windows Start Menu opens 3 columns of installed programs making it difficult to find what you really want?

Infected & bogged down with spyware & adware causing an endless stream of annoying pop-ups?

Too many programs installed that aren’t used anymore?

Hard drive almost full but not sure what to delete?

Need to get your data, photos, music and e-mail backed up?

Perhaps you just purchased a computer and want to have it set up properly.

Want to do a clean upgrade to XP?

Over time, as software and games are installed, un-installed, upgraded, moved and deleted, Windows becomes bogged down and unstable. As you begin to experience software problems and run out of disk space, your computing experience can be very frustrating. Don’t let this happen!

Give your computer an overhaul! This involves backing up all of your data (e-mail, addresses, pictures, music, documents, etc.),, then wiping the hard drive clean, then re-loading Windows from scratch, plus your hardware & software programs, and restoring your data.

This can be intimidating for the inexperienced.... and a very time-consuming task for those that attempt it. Avoid the hassle and get it done right the first time! Let me help you get back on the right track…

Benefits of re-loading:

Your computer will run much faster (at least as fast as when you originally received it.)

 

Benefits of having me do it:

Most recent drivers for all your hardware (video, sound, network, printer, scanner, joystick, etc.) which means less potential for problems.

Old demo programs and infrequently used programs are removed. Free up some disk space by cleaning out unused programs.

Simpler navigation and folder structure that makes sense to you.

Latest software updates and useful utilities from Microsoft and other companies allows you to experience and use the latest software tools & games for computers and the Internet. (Includes DirectX, Windows Media Player, Internet Explorer, MSN Messenger, Outlook Express, Macromedia Shockwave & Flash Players, Adobe Acrobat Reader, etc.)

Latest security patches & updates for your operating system & Internet programs. Ensure no intruders or hackers have access to your system.

Latest anti-virus updates for your anti-virus software.

System Review, Inventory & Report -- hardware, software & e-mail configurations.

All of your hardware configured & tested – Digital Camera, Printer, Scanner, etc.

A CD-ROM with all of your data and the latest software drivers for your computer hardware – a useful archive/backup for future reference or future re-loads.

By only installing what you really require, your computer will run better, faster and be easier to use.

Reduce or eliminate those annoying pop-ups.

Home or office pick-up including return delivery, setup, testing & review so you fully understand what you have.

An experienced software technician who actually enjoys doing this stuff!

But most importantly... A computer that works the way it should -- quick & without problems!

You know your computer needs it.  You’ll be happy you did it.
