Improve Your Computer’s Efficiency

By Sandford Tuey

Do you notice that your computer is running slower or taking longer to process data than it did when you first purchased it? Do you rely on your PC to get most of your work done? Isn’t it frustrating to wait for your laptop to process loading websites or to download a new application or program?

The best way of improving your computer’s performance is to get Max Pro Tech to solve common problems to get you back into enjoyable speedy performance.

Slow Computer

It is a common problem among Windows and Apple users. Some of the reasons behind a slower running computer include a corrupted registry, unnecessary programs, hidden cookies, spyware and fragmented data. You can easily get your speed back by having Max Pro Tech remove programs you don’t use anymore or add applications to clean the registry and run disk defragmentation software.

Computer Freeze

Viruses are a fact of operating a computer these days. Malware infections are on the rise and can lead to a frozen system. Computer hardware can also lead to this problem. Be careful when clicking on links you are not familiar with or may be suspicious of. Having Max Pro-Tech install anti-spyware, a firewall and antivirus software ensures you will always be updated and secure. We can also check hardware drivers for recent versions and uninstall components should you suspect the problem is hardware related.

Unexpected Turn Offs

Are you experiencing unexpected computer turn offs or shut downs, you could have bad cable connections or an inadequate power supply or even a defective battery. If your PC overheats, it is likely to shut down to be able to cool down. Max Pro-Tech can ensure cables are connected properly and check the cooling fan plus we will remove dust and clean. No matter if you are using a laptop or PC, you should check the battery regularly as it may be time to have it replaced.

Printing Failures

Should you need to print documents from the web but find that your computer won’t print Max Pro-Tech will figure out the problem. It could be that the document you are trying to print is password protected or not printable because you have turned on a pop-up blocker.

Weird Noises

There can be strange vibrations or buzzes coming from within the computer casing. They are usually a result of failed or failing hardware. Component problems may cause noises due to a lack of ventilation. Our technicians will clean the fan or replace should it be necessary. Removing dust to ensure the air inlets are free of obstruction will extend the life of your computer. You may need to uninstall and reinstall sound drivers or replace the sound card.

Difficulty Getting Online

Software or hardware router errors and network misconfiguration are common problems we can fix. Max Pro-Tech can also check your firewall and network connection so you can reboot the router when necessary.

If you have a computer problem we can correct it.
