| Is your computer running slow?
Does it seem like it takes forever to boot up? Don't unjustly
blame dialup. We've had many customers bring us their computer because
it needed help, and when we boot it up, they would say something like "dialup
is so slow". The funny thing is, their computer wasn't even connected
to a phone line, so dialup had nothing to do with their computer's extremely
slow performance.
Here's what happens in the life of a computer. It generally starts with too much junk on it right out of the box, because vendors package their software with the maker of the computer. Also, some antivirus software can affect your computer in a very adverse way, making is creep along. As you use the computer, more and more things are added to it, some of which you are completely unaware of. Also, if you're still using Windows XP (we are), chances are that you haven't kept it up to date with more than 150 important updates from Microsoft, most of which are "security" updates to protect your computer and the information on it. Granted, it's next to impossible to download some of the updates using dialup, simply because they are too large. On another note, your computer may only have 256 Megabytes of Memory, which was fine 10 years ago, but now the programs are so much larger that more memory is required to perform well. What we offer is a way to make your computer safe, secure, and run like new again for a fraction of what other computer repair centers charge. Give us a call to schedule an appointment to get your computer running like new. |

| * Microsoft has produced numerous Security and Fix updates for it's versions of Windows. If your computer is not using the newest "Service Pack", all of the updates cannot be installed because the more recent updates are only valid for up to date Service Packs. If your computer is not using the current service pack, the current service pack must be downloaded and installed along with the Security and Fix updates. |
| ** A service pack essentially replaces the operating system with a newer, more "bug" free version. Usually, no more than one service pack is required to be downloaded and installed. Windows XP current service pack is Service Pack 3. If you have Windows XP with Service Pack 1, you would need to download/install 2 complete service packs. Each service pack is large, and take hours to download and install. |
| *** This price includes downloading and installing 1 service pack. |
