How many out there want a new PC?

[ElderGeek]

But the economy & lack of funds are keeping you from pulling the trigger?

Well maybe we can help by upgrading a few key components rather than buying an entirely new PC. Many times looking at what you use your PC for the most, helps us determine which upgrades, like, CPUs, RAM, Video Cards, Hard Drives or Power Supplies will be the most beneficial to you.

And don't forget about Data Backups. If you are not backing up your data regularly, you are setting yourself up for disaster. There is no good time to loose data, but when the economy is slow, its definately not a time to have it happen.

And finally a good cleaning will increase performance on most systems.

So get in touch with me to see how we can extand the life of your computing investment.

When you can't buy new, be sure your old system is up to the task!!

I need to bring this damn computer with me to AZ when I'm there for xmas to have you look at it. Video is still killing me!

Refresh my memory, I remember talking about it but can't remember the details.

Elder,

I have a desktop that could use a cleaning. I can't use it because it has a bunch of spyware and viruses on it. Can you pm me some more info? Price, what can be done and where you're located?

Thanks

PM sent!

For others with the same questions:

I am reducing my normal Personal PC street rate of $75/hr to $65/hr for AZQuad members.

(For those with Business networks/PCs, my street rate is $90, reduced to $80/hr for AZQuad members) Keep in mind it takes less time to clean more systems as I can do a few at the same time.

You can drop it off, Or I can swing by, (drive time is chargable). I will take an hour to look it over and clean what I can in that time. Then give you an estimate of how much more time it will take to finish. The time required is relative to how infected the system is and how much horsepower the system has. Newer systems can run a few utilites at the same time without choking, older systems cannot, so they take longer to run things.

Normally I can clean a system in about 2 to 2.5 hrs, unless it is really infected like Jeremy's buddy's PC. That one took closer to almost 4 hrs to get cleaned up. Years of little to no maintenance will do this.

I also update all your software, drivers, etc. Remove junk from boot up so it starts and runs faster. And show you how to use the utilities to keep it running like it should.

It's well worth the time spent!!

Elder can you do same work and cleanup on laptops?

[Prednizone]

I'll just confirm what Mike (ElderGeek) said. panici33, I thought mine was pretty funked up, and Mike had it done in about an hour I think. He also installed some SW to run when it gets funky again. I've used it, and it helps.

Worth the money, definately.

Elder can you do same work and cleanup on laptops?

yes sir! Laptops, Desktops, & Servers

Thank You Predizone for the Props!! I appreciate it.

Just an FYI for everyone. If your system is not too clogged up, meaning you can still use it but has some popups or other issues that are more annoying than anything, I can login remotely and clean things up. As long as it will shut down and reboot in a reasonable amount of time & stay connected to the net, I can do most things remotely.

This saves both you and me drive time (=$$) and inconvience.



Jeremy, what was the problem with your Video card?

[Jeremy]

I still dont have my video issues figured out. Its got to be the board.

[ElderGeek]
