Much of our day to day life relies on computers, and we know what it's like to be without one. When problems arise, Egghead Computer Solutions will diagnose your system and perform the necessary repairs in a timely manner to get you back up and running as soon as possible. Whether you have hardware problems, software issues, a malware or virus infection, or important data that you need to recover, we are your one-stop shop for computer service.
Services
Egghead Computer Solutions is committed to offering you the highest level of customer service and egg-spertise. Our rates are $95/hr. for residential clients, $105/hr. for small businesses, billed in 15 minute increments (1/2 hr. min.), during business hours from 8:30AM - 5:00PM Monday thru Friday. Evening and weekend hours are available by appointment.

Remote Support
If you need your computer repaired quickly, you
can call our office and have your system accessed by
remote support. Simply put, remote support is a means
for troubleshooting software and some hardware-related
problems over an Internet
connection. Once a session is established, we will be
able to take control of your computer and
attempt to resolve your issue. Although this type of
support won’t be of much assistance in diagnosing failing
hardware, or problems involving Internet
access, it is ideal for fixing program errors, adjusting
settings, and helping customers perform simple tasks.
The most common repairs available through online
computer support are virus and malware removal, system
optimization, Windows registry repair, device driver
issues, Web related issues, and Windows security
updates. A computer with a defective hardware component,
such as a hard drive, can be
diagnosed in some cases but must be repaired in person.

Desktop and Laptop Repair
Egghead Computer Solutions provides service
for all major brands of Windows desktops and laptops,
such as Dell, HP, and Lenovo, as well as "white box"
systems. We can fix just about any problem, but before
we do, we'll make sure it's practical to do so with
a thorough no-cost assessment in order to accurately
diagnose the cause of the issue you are experiencing.
Based on the assessment, we will provide you with
pricing and options as to the best course of action, whether it be a
simple part replacement or the purchase of a brand new
system.

System Upgrades
In most cases, upgrading your hardware is the most cost effective way to increase the
speed, performance, and productivity of your laptop or
desktop computer. A good rule of thumb is that upgrades
should typically be done if the cost(s) will be
less than half of the cost of getting a new system,
and will extend the functional lifespan by roughly half
of what a complete replacement will get you. With this
in mind, you can breathe new life into an older
system with
just a couple of key upgrades by adding memory and/or
replacing the existing hard drive with a solid state
drive (SSD). Additional devices that we
can install or upgrade include: network interface cards,
processors, printers, scanners, video cards, monitors, DVD burners, sound cards, speakers, webcams, and more.

Preventive Maintenance
You wouldn't drive a car for years without changing the
oil, so why ignore your computer? It takes a proper
balance of hardware, software, and continued upkeep to
keep it operating at peak capacity. Without periodic
maintenance, your computer becomes increasingly
sluggish, cluttered, and disorganized, and some
components will actually degrade in performance over
time. Critical tasks, such as data backup verification,
software updates, hardware testing, and the commonly
overlooked internal component cleaning, should be
completed on a scheduled basis to
reduce the risk of data loss or hardware failure.

Virus and Malware Removal
If you find yourself at the mercy of a
virus, count on Egghead Computer Solutions to come to
the rescue! We will remove any viruses or malware
infesting your system, and help you keep your home or
office computer(s) safe from any future attacks. Many computers are
using vulnerable applications, ineffective anti-virus software,
or have security issues with their operating system
configuration. We will examine your system for vulnerabilities that are present
and provide a thorough approach to securing it
from the growing amount of security threats online and offline.

Data Storage and Recovery
In a world dependent on digital data,
regardless of whether you're a corporation, small
business, or home user, data loss can be catastrophic.
With a solid backup and recovery plan, you can recover
quickly and effortlessly. Without one, you’re left with
nothing to fall back on. If you’ve suffered a hard drive
failure and need to retrieve the information stored on a
broken drive, we can help. Although data recovery can
never be 100% guaranteed, we utilize specialized tools
to help extract whatever viable data remains on a broken
or damaged drive. For especially complex situations that
cannot be resolved in-house, we can also send drives out
to a clean lab for the most advanced data recovery
service available.

Software Support
Anyone who regularly uses a computer knows all about
error messages. If you use Windows, chances are you've
received error messages with different Microsoft
software from time to time. Of course, you don’t get a
simple explanation. Instead, you get something like
"Driver IRQL not less or equal." or something just as
obscure which leaves you scratching your head. No need
to panic - give us a call! We provide assistance for all
versions of Windows, Microsoft Office, Internet
Explorer, Java, Adobe, as well as other common
applications.

Home/Small Office Networking
Whether you
have a couple of computers at home or have a business
with several in use, networking your computers can offer
many levels of functionality that make your work or play
so much easier. Sharing files, resources, printers, and
Internet connections are just a few of the advantages. Egghead Computer
Solutions will assist you in choosing the right hardware to make sure your home
or office networks are optimal
in terms of reliability, security, and performance.
