A. Most are simple: Upgrades to the OS (Operating System - such as Windows!)
Some are not so simple! failed Motherboards - Failed Power Supplies - Failed Communication devices, etc..
A. Too many to count or follow - trust me!
A. My advice is: Don't just look for the cheapest nor the most expensive one!
Look at the years of Experience in the field! Just like if you take your car to the garage! There are many options - make sure the mechanic knows what he/she is doing!
A. If your looking to see my Certifications: I don't have them hanging on my wall if that is what your after!
I believe that EXPERIENCE counts more than a piece of paper on the wall!
A. That I am in not qualified to say! You the Consumer are the one's who can answer that question best!
A. One: How far and How much are you willing to go to get what you need inside this darn machine we call Computers!
A. Not exactly sure! but all I know is: If your computer can't be fixed by me! Then it is a complete loss! might make a nice boat anchor though?
A. I have been in the computer field since 1973! So that tell you that I have been in the field ever since it's baby steps! and I have watched it grow till today's technology - I try my best to keep up with the latest and greatest! But I love what I do!
A. Q: What about virus? - My answer:
A: Get the best antiviral programs out there! there are many but the one I choose is called AVIRA! and it hasn't failed me yet!
Q: Can I get my files off my computer?
A: Usually yes! just because your computer or motherboard may not work the
HHD (Hard Drive) might still be ok! as long as we can see it (I can piggy back it to my systems and see!) - we can get your files copied to my drive, a thumbdrive or any other device you might have!
Q: How much will it cost me?
A: Unless you need to replace Parts! Only $40 for my time!
Parts are extra and I will tell you where and how you and I can fix your PC/Laptop to get i back up to par!
A. I have way too many to bore you with it! but I can tell a few whoopers myself if interested!
A. They can know that if I can't fix it - nobody else can either!
A. Kind of found me more so than I for it! I was in the US Army and decided that lugging a rifle on my back was not much of a future!
So I decide early in my 20 year career that I wanted to learn something that I could use AFTER I retired!
Selling Insurance and Used or New Cars was not my option!
I wanted something that I know was 1) Interesting 2) challenging and 3) makes a good living (or at least helps pay the bills!)
A. I am proud of all of my work!
A. It's a never ending battle! things in this industry change so often its not even funny to keep up with!
A. I can foresee that it's going to be a challenge to stay even on par with the computer technologies!
A. I have just too many to enumerate herein!
A. my system is fairly simple! $40 for my time! like we used to say in Germany: Das is Alles! (That is all!).
A. This field is what I call getting saturated to a point that it's almost impossible to keep up with the changing technologies! but you can try!
A. I can lift a computer? does that answer your question?
A. Not much! I am pretty much savvied out!
A. Questions to you: I have none! I know you want your files! your photos! your music and Documents ASAP! Not yesterday! and most of us - always forget to BACKUP the system when we need it the most!
Get Two drives! Use one for DATA and the Other for MISC Files!
That way you can always get one or more drive to get your files backup
whenever things start to go South!
A. I don't have any: but I know you all do!
A. Enough Said!
