Computers are like cars, if you do not look after them they will eventually let you down, like a car, regular servicing can keep your PC or Laptop operating as it should.

Has your machine stopped working? Has it slowed down? Is it noisy? Does it just need a good Spring Clean and Service? Many Computers are positioned on the floor where because they generate a lot of
static electricity they attract and suck in dust and dirt, this accumulation can over a period damage the cooling fans and the processor causing unexpected shutdowns etc. We will remove accumulated dust etc from the power supply and processor fan and motherboard, check all cards and connections, replace cooling fans where necessary. 

The picture on the right shows the effect of smoking and dust which has stuck to the nicotine that has been sucked in by the fan.

Laptops are often operated on the users knees or on bedclothes or cushions where the ventilation holes get blocked leading to overheating and a shorter life, always use a board or tray.

Our Service to you..

PC and Laptop Repairs and Upgrades
Our first operation is to blow out the dust that inevitably accumulates within the computer, this cannot be easily done by sucking it out with a vacuum cleaner, we use compressed air.

Diagnose the problem
Faults are not always obvious, for example a problem with the screen display can be caused by a faulty memory, a faulty motherboard, a faulty screen or something as simple as a loose connection. Other faults can be just as confusing.
We use professional diagnostic software to help pinpoint any issues. If replacement parts are required we will contact you to advise you of the various options that may apply. We do not wherever possible, attempt to carry out repairs at your home or business premises, whilst we may be able to fix the immediate problem there will not be time to properly service your machine, our fixed charge is based on doing the work in our workshop. We can pick up and return our PC or laptop for you, or for priority service you can drop it in to us, in most we will not need the screen, just the base unit.

If possible have the original disks, if any, that came with your machine, this makes our job a lot easier if we have to re-install your software or a driver. Always save documents and pictures and other data in 'My Documents', if we have to save your data for any reason we will be able to find it.

We will always make sure that suitable Anti-virus and Anti-malware software is installed and up to date, there is no need to purchase expensive versions of these programs as there are several free ones that provide plenty of protection for the Home user.

Charges
Our standard Fixed Price Repair and Service Charge is jus £45, no VAT, the only additional charges would be for parts. Other work is charged by agreement.

Laptop Screen or Hinge Replacement
We are used to replacing Laptop screens and/or hinges as they are so easily damaged as are DC Power Sockets, if we do not have one in stock we will obtain one for you.

Upgrades
Computers very quickly become outdated. This does not mean that the whole system needs to be replaced. An upgrade can give your system a new lease of life.

Upgrades include-

  • more memory

  • faster processor

  • new motherboard

  • new graphics card

  • larger hard disk

We will happily fit any upgrades you have bought yourself - as long as they are compatible with your system.

Note:  if your existing machine is more than a few years old it is probably not economical to upgrade it as components such as current memory, motherboards and processors are not compatible with those that were available then. A new entry level machine today will often outperform what was considered to be a top of the range machine three years ago.

Monitors
You may be longing for a new Flat Panel screen to replace your old glass CRT monitor (gives you loads more desk space), simply call us we will obtain and install it for you, again for a small handling charge

New Computers
Whilst we can supply new PCs or Laptops it is probably simpler in most cases for you, the customer, to shop around for a machine that you like look and feel of, most machines these days will easily do what most people need and more. We can certainly advise you as to our preferred makes and specifications. If you require a PC with specific requirements, such as a high end gaming machine we can build one for you.

Networking
If your home or small business has more than one PC, you may benefit from installing a network. A network can be wired or wireless.
Some of the advantages of a network are -

  • you can easily share files between PCs - no more saving to floppy disk to move files from one computer to another
  • you can share peripherals such as a printer, CD writer, DVD drive etc.
  • the network makes backing-up important data quick and easy
  • the secure sharing of an internet connection
  • for gamers - play your games in a more challenging and exciting way - against another person!

Wireless and Broadband
We can help you with any problems you may have with regard to Wireless Networking around your home or Office, if your Broadband is not working we can find out why.

Broadband Installation
Broadband in itself is not difficult however if you are not technically minded it may present a bit of a challenge, if you have signed up with BT or one of the other ADSL suppliers you will receive the modem and software in a box, that is were we can come in and set it up for you.

If you have signed up for Broadband and require an email address make sure that your supplier knows this as it may not be included in their basic package.

Hardware
Printers, Scanners etc can sometimes be tricky to set up, just give us a call and we will help you.

Web Page Design and Hosting
