Virus/Spyware/Adware

If you are experiencing poor computer performance, crashes, lockups, or a consistent stream of pop-up advertising while browsing the internet, you may be infected with a computer virus, spyware, or adware. Spyware and adware are advertising supported programs designed to encourage you to visit specific websites. The accumulation of these can monopolize your computer resources, slow down your system, and cause you great irritation. A computer virus is malicious and may attempt to damage your computer or steal your personal information. We can remove these from your computer and install software to prevent them from returning.

Hardware/Crashes

If your computer will not power up, hangs or freezes, never gets past the Windows Start screen, is beeping or making grinding noises you may have a problem with your hardware or system software that communicates with it called a device driver. If it is a hardware problem, the most common device to fail is the hard disk - it's the only moving part of the system. We can diagnose these problems, repair them, and provide solutions to prevent the loss of your important data.

Data Recovery

If your hard disk has crashed and your computer will not start, we may be able to help you retrieve the important data that is stored on it. If you have a backup copy we can help you restore your data back to a new replacement drive.

Internet/Email

Online Backup

The best way to protect your data is to make sure you have a copy of it somewhere else besides your hard drive.

We can show you how to automate your backup on these devices so that you never have to remember to copy it, and better yet, we can help you configure an online backup so that if disaster ever strikes you can quickly get to that data from any computer.
