  Right to your home or office......we come to YOU on YOUR schedule.
 
What makes us different from all the other Computer places (big or small) out there? We come to you and help you on your schedule. No need to go through the hassle of unplugging everything and carting your computer to a retail or PC shop for them to look at, hopefully fix in a week or so and then drive all the way back there to pick it up and fall over once they hand you the bill. We do not charge to come to you.....only for the time we spend helping you with your service issues. Our gas is used......not yours and we explain what we can do, are doing and how we can help you. We also take the time to show you how maintain your PC or Network so you will be able to reliably enjoy your equipment more. Knowing someone is taking care of YOU & not just your equipment is very important. Don't you think?

Featured tips
For Windows Vista

How to make Vista Boot Faster  

1) Boot faster with Multiple Cores

If you have a multi-core processor (and you probably do), you can make it scoot at least a little bit faster with just a couple clicks. Run msconfig (type it into the Start search bar, press enter). Click boot, then advanced options. Then change the number of processors to 2 or 4 , and Vista will use all of them & not just a single core to boot !!

 

2) Clearing the Perfech folder

To empty the "Windows Prefetch" Directory: Navigate to....... C:\Windows\Prefetch and delete all files and folders within, then reboot. After the first couple of reboots, Windows Vista should boot and shutdown faster! :-)

 

Featured tips
For Windows XP

1) Want to protect your shared computer?
Windows SteadyState is a free download that returns your Windows XP or Windows Vista-based PC to its original state with each restart, so you can remove any inadvertent changes.

 

2) Secure a remote PC
Learn how to use Windows Live Messenger and the Windows Live OneCare safety scanner to diagnose and fix everything from viruses to hard-disk fragmentation remotely.
