You want a faster system? Put faster parts in it. That’s the simple answer to a question that every PC owner asks from time to time. But replacement parts aren’t free, and cash-strapped computer enthusiasts know that the key is to put their money where it counts most. Call us today to find out how computer hardware upgrade can improve productivity, increase processing speed and keep you on the cutting edge of computer technology without purchasing a whole new desktop system. Hardware upgrades that can extend the life of your current computer.When you purchased your new Computer System, it was the latest and greatest, but six months later there was already a computer better and faster on the market. We can help you keep up with rapidly changing technology by performing simple, low cost upgrades to your existing computer.
RAM: Your computer uses RAM, random access memory, to perform functions and operations. More RAM allows your computer to perform more tasks simultaneously and run faster. You can boost performance by installing additional RAM or replacing the existing computer hardware with larger memory sticks. RAM is easy to replace on a desktop, but you may have to check your user’s manual for instructions to add or remove RAM on a laptop.
Hard drive: Hard drives on most laptops and desktop computers are modular and can be easily swapped for a faster model with a larger memory capacity. With a larger hard drive, you can store more programs, music and photos. You can even install more than one hard drive in a desktop computer to expand storage or back up files.
Optical disc drive: Upgrading to a new DVD burner or a Blu-ray disc drive will give your computer new capabilities. An optical drive is easy to install, and you may even be able to install multiple drives on the same desktop, with one drive as the master drive and a second as a “slave” drive.
Processor: Your processor has a large impact on the speed and performance of your laptop or desktop computer. It’s also a very simple component to change. Before you choose a new processor, however, check the processor socket type on your computer’s motherboard. Your new processor needs to match that socket type to be compatible.
Video card: Graphics processing units, or video cards, are for computers that handle heavy image processing in video games and 3-D rendering software. A new video card can boost the graphics processing ability, allowing you to play the latest games or use your computer as a high-definition entertainment center with your HDTV.
There are all kinds of software in the market for each and every one of your needs. Installation and setup can be stressful for those who aren’t techy. However, you no longer have to worry about the installation of the software you need.
Whatever project you’re working on – from building web pages to building football stadiums – you’re going to need the right sort of software to handle the job.
There are two types: System software is what runs and manages your computer, such as your operating system or file management utilities. Application software, popularly known as apps, refers to software that allows users to complete specific tasks.
Help Is A Phone Call Away
Determine Computer Compatibility For The Install – Some software works with some computers, but software programs are not necessarily universal. Our Expert Techs will determine if your computer is compatible with the software you are considering.
Install And Configure Software – If the software and your computer are a match, we will install it for you. Settings will be configured to make it as easy as possible to use.
Perform Necessary Software Updates – If your software was purchased in a store and came out of a box, it might well be out of date. Developers regularly release updates for their software, and packaged software probably will not be the latest version. Your Expert Techs will take care of that, downloading and installing the latest updates.
Create Required Shortcuts – We will also create desktop, start menu, and quick launch shortcuts, making your new software easily accessible.
Before we abandon you to your new, exciting installed software program, we’ll make sure you know how to use it. Don’t worry.

Most malware virus programs are designed to be hard to remove. Malware often embeds itself in windows, hiding its files or modifying system files with its own code. This makes it very hard for the average user to remove; special utilities are often required which can unmask the virus allowing for its deletion. Through years of experience we can remove the infestation without destroying your data. Your data is important; let us do the job.
The number of computer viruses are increasing every year. If your computer is running slowly, displaying popup ads or just acting strangely, you probably have some form of malware. Simply installing an anti virus program after the fact will not fix the problem because malware will prevent antivirus programs from removing it. We use specially developed in-house utilities to remove the infestation and get your computer running smoothly. With our in-house utilities we can often remove malware without needing to perform a fresh installation of windows. This saves you from reinstalling all your applications. Once the malware is removed and your computer is repaired we install anti-malware software to protect your computer from future infection.

How was I infected Malware can come from many sources including malicious banner ads, spam, infected websites, or “free” applications. Lately I’ve noticed rise in fraudulent Anti Virus programs such as XP Anti virus 2008/2009, MS Anti virus, and AntiSpyware 2008. These fake anti virus programs are frequently downloaded from ad banners claiming to remove nonexistent malware from your computer. Once downloaded it will often hijack the computer and force the user to enter their credit card information.

Water damage affected your Mac? Our Apple water damage repair service is the quick and cost-effective way to save your computer. Whether it’s a MacBook, a MacBook Pro, an Air or a desktop, we’ll replace the affected parts and get your computer working again.
Apple’s one year limited warranty, which is sold with all new Apple products, doesn’t cover your machine in the event of water damage. Neither does the Apple Care Protection Plan. And the average Apple water damage repair cost is high. In many cases, it can be more cost-effective to throw a water-damaged Apple product in the bin, and replace it with a brand-new model.

Macbook Battery Replacement
MacBook battery died? Don’t consign your computer to the rubbish heap just yet. Our MacBook Pro battery replacement service is fast, fairly priced, and usually completed on the same day. And we’ll even come and pick your computer up from your home or place of work.
When you buy a MacBook, you buy quality. Unfortunately, the solid build and aluminium case come with a payoff. They aren’t designed to be opened by the owner. And that means, when the battery reaches the end of its useful life, you’re recommended to return the whole computer to your nearest Apple store. Official MacBook Pro battery replacement is costly.
And if you don’t live near an Apple store, it can can take several days to complete. We use the same quality batteries you’d get if you paid Apple premiums for your MacBook battery replacement, but our service is much quicker and much cheaper.

Laptop Cleaning Service
Keep your laptop in good health with our laptop cleaning service. We offer a fast, same-day service for all makes and models. Our laptop fan cleaning services are vital for ongoing computer health. If your machine is older than two years, and has never had its fans cleaned, it’s likely to need them doing.
Your laptop fan is responsible for cooling the vital components packed tightly inside the case. It blows the hot air, generated by the working elements of the computer, out through the air vents. But air isn’t the only thing passing through those vents. Over time, tiny particles of dust and dirt, sucked into the machine by the action of the fan, clog up the blades.
Laptop Fan Replacement
Cooling fan gone? Our laptop fan replacement service is fairly priced and quick. We’ll even pick your laptop up from your home or place of business, and drop it back to you once the fan repair is finished.
The cooling fan is a vital element of your laptop’s heat removal system. It’s responsible for removing the hot air generated by the processor and other parts. In modern laptop designs, air is usually removed from heat sources using a ‘heat pipe’ system, which delivers the exhaust to the fan to be blown out through the cooling vents. Because everything in your laptop is packed together so tightly, a broken or faulty fan is a critical issue.
If your cooling system goes, an expensive laptop can become junk in just a couple of hours. Our fan repair services are here to stop that happening.
