Maintenance
- Sluggish performance getting you down? This could be caused by a number of factors. Viruses, Fragmented Files, Bad Hard Disk Sectors, Shortage of Disk Space, Memory (RAM)...
- We recommend periodic visits to ensure that these are not contributing to poor system performance. Routine and regular reviews of your systems keeps them running more efficiently and for longer.
- Electronic Components and Heat: Electronics dislike heat! Heat is the biggest contributor to component failure and you can do something about it. Take a look at the back of your computer in the vicinity of the fan built into the power supply. That's the area at the back of the computer where the power cord plugs into the system. Invariably, you will find the intake area covered with dust (bunnies) - sometimes a trace... sometimes clumps. You can vacuum this area - make sure that the system is plugged into the power outlet so it remains grounded so as to prevent static electricity. The better way though, is to take the covers off the system and using a good air pressure stream and blow out all the dust and dirt from the system.
- When we have systems in my shop and have the covers off, I always clean the inside with my high pressure air gun (no a Karcher with water just won't cut it). The compressor in my garage is a touch heavy to "schlep" around in the car - it needs two-an-a-half people to move it. What I have done is got my hands on a portable unit and am offering a clean-up and system tune-up to my clients as part of a Maintenance Club I've started.
- Here's what you get:
Twice a Year visit (Spring and Fall) to do the blowout of dust and dirt. Cleanup of all temporary files that accumulate on the system. Check for available updates and instructions on how to download and install them and startup of Disk Defragmenter program. Contact us for more information.
