Computer Repairs / IT Support
It would seem that the more we rely on computers the more trouble they cause us. From useless error messages that can't speak plain English to silly beeping and flashing boxes.
At Handcoded we understand these frustrations and are more than happy to turn your computing nightmares into something a little less scary. A few of the packages we offer are listed below.
Broadband setup
We can setup your broadband connection for you. All we need is the connection details you will have received from your Broadband provider.PC Security
We can harden your Computer with the latest security updates for your operating system and configure Anti-Virus and Firewall Software to protect the computer from hacking attempts and viruses / trojans and malicious software. We can also backup your files and offer tips to keep your PC in check.
PC Like New
It is a well known fact that after a few months of use your PC can become slow. We can perform memory upgrades and do a general Spring clean to get the performance back. A re-install is sometimes the only option and we can do this for you aswell and can setup your hardware such as printers and scanners.
Software Troubleshooting
If you have software that is misbehaving we may be able to fix the problem. If this is not possible a complete re-install of the operating system and hardware drivers may be required. A backup of your important files and emails etc is included.
Something a bit different
If you consider yourself an average computer user you may wish to try an alternative operating system to Windows which is more secure and does not suffer from virus'. We will install and configure the Ubuntu Operating System as long as your computer meets Ubuntu's system requirements. Ubuntu is great for kids computers as it's intuitive and easy to use.
Parental Supervision
We have all heard horror stories of children being groomed by online predators and as much as we would like to it is near impossible to find out who our children are talking to online. We offer a service whereby we can install some software on the childs computer which logs MSN Messenger chats and sends a daily report to the parent via email of all conversations without the childs knowledge.
