If you are upgrading your computer or adding a new PC to your home you may well have important personal data on your old hard disk drive that you need to transfer to your new machine. This can be a long and laborious task which may require specialist equipment not available to most home users.

We can take your old PC or laptop, remove the hard drive and back it up to ensure all your data is kept perfectly safe, then transfer your old files, settings, emails and any other information or setting to your new machine. This service allows you to move to a new computer with the minimum of hassle, all your old files are where they always were and you can get back to your work with the confidence that all your data is safe and where you need it to be.

With the vast array of programmes running on modern computers it is easy to forget how much work you have already put in to getting your computer to work the way you want it to, from simple browser customisations and family photos on your desktop, to more involved setups like accessing shared devices on a network and coping with huge email archives. When you get your new PC (which we are happy to advise on or supply if required) you will then have the task of configuring it to work like your old machine did. We can take the pain out of this operation and we also offer to remove any “Bloatware” which may come pre installed from your computer manufacturer. This will mean that you get a fast and efficient machine configured to your needs with no fuss.

We can repair all types of screen damage, from replacing a cracked screen to fixing issues with incorrect displays or colored lines across the screen

We regularly repair all types of laptop screens from all manufacturers. Just because you have damaged your laptop screen you should not think that the only option is to buy another laptop.

There are many reasons why a laptop screen may need to be replaced:

• Cracked or damaged screen

• Coloured lines or odd shapes on the screen
• Images or colours distorted

Replacing the screens on most laptops is a tricky, very delicate task, but with years of experience we are able to supply and replace the screen on almost any laptop in just a few days. All we need to know is the make and model of your laptop and the exact nature of the damage, or we can come out to your home or office and diagnose the issue more accurately on site.

If you are able to provide us with the exact model and make of your laptop we can order a replacement laptop  screen for you and fit it at a location to suit you in under an hour. To identify your exact laptop model just look at the product sticker which is usually on the underside of the laptop – this will normally contain the model or serial number which is what we need to find an exact replacement for your laptop screen.

Is your computer running slowly, windows taking a long time to load, computer unresponsive and sluggish?

Computers and laptops slow down over time because as your software updates and adds more features to your computer, it is also asking your computer to do more, with the same amount of resources.

Also as time goes on new features will come out that you may want on your current machine, wireless networking is a good example; the latest version of wireless devices are “Wireless-N”, which is considerably faster, more stable and has a wider range than the previous generation, “Wireless-G”. An upgrade to the latest wireless hardware is usually very cheap and can be hugely beneficial.

By keeping your computer well maintained (see our PC Health Check Service) you can make your computer work efficiently and minimise the negative effect of your computer slowing down, but at some point you are going to want to upgrade your computer to restore it to its original, responsive feel. There are a number of different upgrade options available to most computer users and your particular requirements will depend on what you want from your computer.

The upgrade services we offer can add any items to your laptop, desktop or home network including:

• Memory upgrades (RAM).

Over time your computer will start to slow down and become less responsive and enjoyable to use and this is why we offer our Computer Health Check to address some of the following complaints:

• Windows very slow.
• Devices will not connect.
• Wireless problems.
• Error messages.
• Blue screen errors.
• Security problems.

When you initially purchase a computer, it normally comes supplied with a few choice programs and a fresh installation of the latest operating system. Once you have owned that computer for a few years you will have applied numerous updates to the operating system, installed many new programs, added all your family photos and videos, and generally made use of the machine you bought. All of this means you are asking the same machine to do more and more operations with the same amount of resources it had initially, it is no wonder the computer seems slower than when you first bought it. By a process of cleaning out unused files, updates, programs and more we can bring your computer back to running much happier.

Our computer health check service involves a thorough inspection of your computer to ensure that it is running at its most efficient. By tidying up files on your computer, removing items no longer used and helping to organise your information more efficiently we normally see a huge increase in the speed, efficiency and responsiveness of computers. Having a faster running PC is not strictly necessary for some simple computing tasks, but having a machine that is smooth and responsive enables you to enjoy using it much more.

We are able to offer any service customised to your needs, but a general heath check for your machine at your home will normally take approximately 1 hour.
