Setup and connect PCs and Servers
£20
Getting your PC or server up and running can be time consuming and frustrating. I will set up and fully test your computer(s) so you have the time to get on with other things. I will install required software and drivers, set up your email account and make sure you can see it all working.

Virus and Spyware removal and protection
£20
We all find our computer(s) affected by a computer virus or spyware at some time or other. It’s just one of those annoying things that we have to put up with. Fortunately there are many solutions to this. 90% of the time, viruses and other undesirable software can be removed without resorting to more drastic measures. I will clear your computer of all viruses and spyware then implement a level of protection you are happy with.

Computer MOT
£20
PC running slow? Taking ages to boot up? With regular typical PC activities: installing software, browsing the internet, performance begins to suffer. All PCs need regular servicing to keep them at their best performance levels. Throughout a six month period, your hard drive becomes congested with temporary files which are no longer needed. As air is drawn through the PC, dust builds up on components and can cause heat to build up and reduce their life. I will carry out a full service: Clean the inside of the PC, carry out a rigorous virus and spyware scan and fix, provide an extensive explanation how to keep your PC running well and free from malware. I will provide you with a full MOT report on the points covered so you know what has been done.

Wireless or Wired Installation
£20
Surf the net – no wires. Anywhere around the home, check your email upstairs or downstairs or play your games console on-line anywhere in the house with a wireless network. NO CABLES running between rooms. Share files and printers between PCs anywhere in your home. Secure wireless surfing is vital so I will make sure that no one else can use your wireless network.

Upgrade Install
£20
The PC is now synonymous with home entertainment. We watch, listen and record movies, TV and radio programs. This means the PC needs more memory, a bigger hard drive, better graphics and even a TV Card. Digital media, especially video, needs large amounts of storage space. Resolve this by adding another hard drive. Video editing also needs plenty of memory, adding more improves performance straight away and if you want to record and pause live TV then a current TV card is what you’ll need.

Backup
£15
Don’t lose your precious pictures, movies, music and financial data. Backing up those important files will make sure you don’t get caught out if your hard drive becomes corrupted or fails. I’ll do this for you so you don’t have to worry.

Data Scrub
£20
Data and Identity theft is an ever present problem in this day and age. We keep a lot of personal information on our computers even if we don’t realise it. With online banking and the puchase of goods we save a lot of data about ourselves on our hard drives. When you’re ready to dispose of your old PC I will scrub all data from your hard drive, permanently. So don’t forget
to backup any important files ready to transfer to your new computer else they’re gone for good.

Recover deleted files
£20
We’ve all done it. Without thinking or without realising, you’ve deleted a vital file or directory, it’s no longer in the recycle bin and you don’t have a backup! With tried and trusted hi-tech tools, I can recover these files.

Data Transfer
£15
Got a new PC? Want your music, movies and other personal files copied over from your old PC?. Just highlight the files and I can do this for you quickly and securely.

Driver Download
£15
Hardware is under constant review by manufacturers and so is the software that makes it work. “Drivers are being updated every day to improve performance and correct problems. I can locate, download and install drivers for your hardware and provide you with a CD/DVD copy for future use.

PC Revamp
£20 + cost of parts
PC showing signs of age? Why not replace some parts and breathe some life into your PC? It may even be worth going for the Upgrade option and get some more Bells and Whistles. The choice is yours, if a revamp is not going to help then I will tell you.

More memory
£15 + cost of parts
There’s a simple rule of thumb – The more memory your PC/laptop has, the faster it will perform. One look inside your PC will determine the type of memory needed. I will make sure the memory is the right type and install it for you.

A new Operating System
£15 + cost of operating system
Installing a new operating system on your PC can bring you advances in features you simply were not aware of. Today’s operating systems are far more advanced than those of 5 years ago and, if your PC is of high enough specification then it would be well worth it. By examining the specification of your PC I can determine whether this is worth while and if so, which operating
system is the best for you. Installing a new OS can be a bit daunting so let me do it for you. One important thing to remember – any important files (music, movies, pictures, documents, etc.) will need to be backed up. Some operating systems can just be upgraded but, this is proven to be an unwise approach to installing a new operating system therefore your hard drive will need to be reformatted which erases all existing programs and files. This may sound extreme but as long as you still have your original programs and files on CD/DVD/solid state media then it will be plain sailing.

Please note that in some rare circumstances, your computer system may be beyond recovery, in which case I shall explain the options available to you.

All prices are per computer. Price is negotiable on large numbers of computers.
