Your Computer Medic BlogThe Doctor Is In (and he makes house calls)

Are you suffering from frequent crashes and error messages? Do you suspect that viruses and spyware are making your PC run slow? Does your Dell or PowerMac fail to boot? Having trouble getting your cable modem and wireless router to talk to each other? We'll fix it fast, and make sure it stays fixed!

We service all brands and types of computers - Mac or Windows, desktop or laptop - either in your home or on our repair bench. Our reputation is one of providing fast, fairly priced, expert and HONEST computer service to our customers. Whether you bought your computer from one of the big chain stores or by mail order, we can quickly diagnose and fix most any kind of problem you might encounter...and we'll tell you when we can't. Or, in the case of older computers, when it's just not worth it. 

Backing Up?
Surveys show most people fail to do even basic backups of their important files. But backing up your system is easier today than it's ever been. Consumers have a wide field of options, from recordable DVD to USB keychain drives to massive yet inexpensive internal or external hard drives. Check out our blog to learn about a great device for backups. Plus, software has gotten much better too, automating your backup jobs so you can spend time getting work done - not worrying about hardware failure. Let's devise a solid backup system to protect your data!

Why Clone?
Cloning is a different type of backup. With "standard" backups, you run backup jobs to create copies of your most important files - your precious digital photos, word processing documents, and so forth. You backup on a frequent basis, enabling you to recover a specific file from a specific point in time. A clone, on the other hand, is just what it's name implies - an exact replica of your hard drive, including not only your files but the Windows or Mac operating system itself, plus all applications and settings.

Having a clone of your working hard drive, as you can imagine, can be a real time saver. You still want "straight" data backups, because cloning can take some time and is something you may only want to do quarterly. But if your boot hard drive dies, having a clone means you don't have to dig out all your serial numbers, reinstall Windows, and reset all your personalized program settings such as bookmarks, desktop preferences, and so forth. We've got numerous options for cloning your system, and they're not as difficult as you might think!

Did You Know?
On average, it takes just minutes for a newly installed computer without the proper service packs and antivirus or antispyware software to become infected? Your defenses should include updated software, a broadband router or software firewall, antivirus software, and a good antispyware program. Let us help you get it all set up and working properly!
