PC Clinic Maintaining the health of
your PC
Many people think that their computer is
crossing the line into old age when it
starts to slow down or when it can no longer
handle running more than one program at a
time. But this is often far from the truth.
Your computer’s health and lifespan depends
almost entirely on how well you take care of
it. Basic maintenance and fine tuning can,
in some cases, double the life of your
machine. And we at MCI want to help you do
just that.
PC Health Check £35
Send your PC to our in-house PC Clinic and
we will rid it of all those nasty bugs that
could be causing your problems. (* Excludes
transportation)
We will check for the following:
* Virus'
If a virus infects your computer it can
cause multiple problems. Not only will it
dramatically affect the behaviour of your
PC, it can also spread to other PCs on your
network and if ignored, can result in
massive data loss. At any one time, your PC
could be harbouring multiple viruses, each
lying dormant for years, only to become
apparent once triggered. One of the first
actions our Clinic will undertake, will be
to remove all viruses.
* Spyware/Adware
Although, not as damaging to your PC,
Spyware and Adware can make a huge
difference in the speed of your internet
connections. Outside companies can use these
programmes to acquire personal details from
your PC and not only will it cause your PC
to become slower, it will usually be the
cause of unwanted pop up adverts.
* Fan & Excessive Dust
Cooling is a major feature in any PC.
Overheating can cause the system’s CPU
(Central Processing Unit) to fail. While
excessive dust and faulty fans can lead to
this, checking all fans are operational and
making sure the ventilation is clear, will
automatically extend the life of your PC.
* Patch Updates
New viruses and security threats are
announced everyday. Software patches are
released to help combat these trouble makers
but most systems do not come ready-loaded
with patches. And of those that do, often
become out of date very quickly. We will
ensure your system is fully patched with the
latest service packs and install new
patches, if necessary, greatly reducing the
risk of security threats.
Repairs
Our experienced technicians can find any
problem within the base unit and can replace
any parts as necessary. We can also carry
out repairs to laptop computers.
Most people would not consider repairing
their current PC before setting out to buy a
brand new model. Very often it can be far
more economical to repair your current PC. A
lot of faults are down to software settings,
rather than hardware problems. Our engineers
have years of experience in repairing PCs.
If a more expensive fault is found we will
advise you of the problem and inform you of
the hardware needed to rectify the problem.
Upgrades
We currently offer upgrades to both PCs and
Laptops. These can include new processors,
more memory, better graphics and anything
else which may need upgrading. These
services are tailored to your machine and we
will advise you on a suitable upgrade,
depending on what you intend to use your
machine for.
With both repairs and upgrades, you will be
supplied with a written quote before
carrying out any work.
Data Recovery
If the problems with your PC have resulted
in loss of important files or folders, we
can help you recover your loss.
