Got Geek?
From time to time everyone has a problem with her computer. Whether you've just bought some new hardware or software and you're having trouble getting it installed, you've contracted a particularly nasty virus from web surfing, or you shut it off one day and the next time you try to turn it on it won't come on most of us have been there. If you haven't ever been there, don't worry, you will. Every so often I remember a time when I could say, "Oh nothing like that has ever happened to a system of mine." Yeah. Those were the days.
The fact is computers have become an extremely important part of our lives, particularly small business. It's important to have someone to whom you can turn when problems arise. Here at Black River Imaging we have an entire department dedicated to computer systems, networking, and software to keep us up and running and connected.
If you don't have your own personal geek squad, you should. I do. I would recommend finding someone with whom you can communicate easily, someone who is patient and who listens. Definitely find someone with whom you click. My squad consists of one guy that works for himself. He's reliable, priced reasonably, and he's just a real nice guy: Neil Slatinsky, owner/operator of Complete Computer Care here in Springfield, MO. I feel extremely lucky to have found him. For our customers in the Greater Springfield area, I highly recommend him. He does remote support, too, for those outside the area. Find him on Facebook. He works on MACs, too!
Personally, I do a lot of my own computer repair and maintenance. Here are a few links I like for helping you to maintain or troubleshoot your own computer issues. I would caution that these links are for folks who do possess an understanding of computers or for those (like me) who throw caution to the wind with a "Pfff! I can do this!" attitude. I've rated each link for the intrepid:
Avira Anti-Virus software - It's the best free anti-virus software out there. I chucked AVG (at the suggestion of my pal Neil) for Avira and I've been extremely happy with the protection so far. If you can download and install software on your own, check this out: www.avira.com
SpeedFan - I was having issues with my computer spontaneously shutting down and after a little bit of online research came to suspect it was a heat issue. This little gem confirmed what I already knew and I keep it just to monitor the heat in my machine. If you can download and install software on your own and are interested, check this out: www.almico.com
Bleeping Computer - This link is for me, the "Do-It-Yourselfer", INVALUABLE when it comes to troubleshooting errors, random freezes or shutdowns, software and hardware installation issues, Windows issues... If it's computer related and you can articulate the problem, these men and women can help and I'm simply amazed at how willing they are, how patient, and how fast they are. And for free. This link is really not for the novice, but you might learn a few things: www.bleepingcomputer.com
Combofix - This little software program has saved my bacon SO many times when I've had stubborn viruses AVG, et al. wouldn't remove. Follow the directions to the letter and this little gem will have your system clean, up and running in no time. For advanced users only: www.combofix.org
Malwarebytes - This is one of the best malware cleaners I've used. Free, easy to use, and does a great job. What more could you ask for? If you can download and install software on your own, then check this out: www.malwarebytes.org
Complete
Computer Care- For Facebook users: www.facebook.com
Links I Like The following links aren't computer maintenance related. They're just for fun and creativity.
