In-Shop Computer Tune-Up - $99.95 (flat fee limited time special)
Has your computer become painfully slow or is unusable?
This condition is usually the result of stuff that accumulates over time:
spyware, malware, viruses, unnecessary programs and processes running on start-up,
damaged registry or corrupt operating system files.
Surprisingly most of the computers brought into my shop have viruses or spyware on
them and the owner does not even know it!
A Tune-Up can help return your computer to new, or even better than new, performance.
Included in the Tune-Up:
- Dust Cleaning
- Check your hardware
- Security audit and scan
- Virus removal *
- Malware/spyware removal *
- Removal of un-needed software and startup items
- Hard drive files cleanup
- Disk Defragmentation
- Installation of free protection software
- Installation of a few free and useful programs
- Install Operating System updates and Service Packs
The Tune-Up must be performed at my location to qualify for the flat-fee price, and usually requires at least 24 to 48 hours to complete. Tune-Up is labor time only and does does not include any parts that might need replacing. This service can be performed on laptop or desktop computers.. Call Mike and arrange an appointment.
* sometimes viruses, malware, or spyware corrupts or deletes important data or system files. Many times I am able to remove them and find no damage, but sometimes I will need to recommend a Re-Format and Operating System Reload for an additional charge.
