Fixed Price Service - £49.50

If your computer seems sluggish and over worked, we may be able to help. Our PC Healthcheck is designed to maximize your computers performance by removing un-necessary files and registry settings as well removal of Spyware software. Your computer is collected and brought to our workshop where the system is inspected, and some benchmark test are run to asses system performance. The system is then scanned for Spyware and any found are removed. We then subject your computer to an optimization process which includes removing un-necessary 'temporary' files, registry settings, orphaned .dll files and other un-necessary files which get left on the system by previously installed software. We also defragment the hard disk to help increase performance. Virtual memory settings are inspected and adjusted to provide best performance of your machine.

At the time of the service we will also connect your computer to the Internet and download and install any critical Windows Updates, supplied by Microsoft. Microsoft continually releases updates for its Windows operating system, many of them "critical" designed to enhance your security and online safety. Some of these updates are very large files, often in excess of 20MBytes and can take literally hours to download via a dial-up modem. We have the facilities to download these updates in a relatively short period of time, and will download and install any critical updates at the time of the service. We will also install Windows Service Packs if deemed appropriate.

This fixed price service is only offered in our workshops as we can keep the price low by completing other tasks in parallel.
