The following list of computer services
is an incomplete list of the services I provide. This is a small
sample of the in-home services I perform. If you don't see what
you are looking for, please feel free to contact me regarding
any needs you have.
Computer Installation
Complete set up of a new or existing computer
system. Expert setup saves you unnecessary wasted time on the
telephone with technical support staff and/or returning purchases
to manufacturers and retailers.
Computer Detailing / Preventive Maintenance
Dust buildup on the internal components
can lead to several problems. One is that dust acts as a thermal
insulator, which prevents proper system cooling. Excessive heat
shortens the life of system components. Additionally, the dust
can contain conductive elements that can cause partial short circuits
in a system. Insure your system has a long life by providing it
with the professional care it needs.
Computer Tutoring
Hands on, one on one, plain english computer
tutoring. Anyone having trouble using or understanding their computer
will appreciate this help. Full one hour sessions in your home
or mine.
Hardware Upgrades
Great improvements can be made to your system
by installing, replacing, or upgrading your PC's hardware. Professional
installation saves you time and money by eliminating calls to
tech support or having to return your item. I can install any
of the following items at the same low price: Floppy drive, CD-ROM,
DVD Player, CD-RW, Video Card, Sound Card, Modem, or USB port.
PC Tune-Up
A full inspection, full service Tune-Up
improves PC performance and stability. Maintenance needs vary
from computer to computer. Services I perform may include, but
are not be limited to: freeing of hard disk space and system resources,
installation of windows updates & security patches, installing
or removing Network Components and much much more. Turn your slow
PC into a lean mean web surfing machine.
Trouble Shooting & Repair
Computer malfunctions are a common occurrence,
and can require trouble shooting to root out the cause of the
problem. System diagnostics must be performed before repair can
begin. Diagnosis and repair are one charge. However, should the
system require the replacement of hardware or software to resolve
the issue, an additional charge will apply.
Virus Removal
Viruses have become increasingly complex
and virus infections involve more system elements than ever before.
Viruses can obliterate data, corrupt programs so that they no
longer run, stall servers with e-mail bombs, and--in the case
of the "I Love You" worm virus--replace files, steal passwords
and infect address books as it propagates itself. All infections
should be removed immediately to protect your privacy, and data.
Clean installation of Windows
Having this service performed, makes a computer
like new again. I format and partition the hard drive. Reinstall
Windows, all system drivers and applications, returning the system
to a new state.
