We can help you choose a new computer (desktop or
laptop PC or server), install it, set it up and make
sure it is up-to-date* and secure* (especially the Windows
operating system and anti-virus/anti-malware applications),
partition the hard drive, create an initial drive image, backup,
etc.
We can configure your new computer to use your wired or wireless network,
connect it to the internet, install and configure new
applications, hook up printers or external drives
or devices.
We can show you how to use your new computer, perform routine preventative
maintenance and tune-ups, fix problems, do backups,
defragment internal and external hard drives, clear the caches, etc.
We can also make sure your new computer is set up properly so as to be safe for use by your
children, block access to undesirable content on the internet,
etc.
*Note: This is especially important if you just bought a
new computer and you want to be sure that its up-to-date and secure
with all the latest patches, etc. Contrary to what you may think, a
new PC is NOT necessarily always ready to go right out of the box. Before connecting it
to the Internet, where it can immediately be subject to all kinds of attacks and
exploits, you need to make sure its up-to-date and secure with
security patches, anti-virus updates, etc. and that its Firewall is
enabled (it may be disabled by default leaving you exposed
to the bad stuff on the internet).
|
|
|
We can setup and maintain your existing PCs
(desktops or laptops) or servers and make sure they are
up-to-date and secure. We can install and configure new applications,
remove old applications, reorganize applications and files,

undesirable content, clear caches and unnecessary tracking
cookies, check for viruses and spyware, defragment its hard
drive(s), tune it up for improved
performance and recover lost disk space, perform routine
preventative maintenance, fix problems, etc.

firewalls, printers, monitors, etc.) Plus, monitors,
