Services
Fault diagnosis and repair with any Personal Computer, whether it be an IBM-compatible PC, Apple Macintosh or any other variety, the complexity of the software can often cause even the most confident of users some degree of apoplexy from time to time. When such an event occurs the temptation is to persevere with the problem yourself - often making it worse - or call in a friend (who knows something about computers) - who has the advantage of being able to walk away after he's made your PC unusable!
Maintenance - For only 10 per month your PC (discounts apply for multiple computers in the same location) will receive a six monthly check-up and you can call us immediately you have a problem without the fear of additional labour charges. With no risk of additional labour charges there is every reason to call us as soon as you notice a problem.
You are able to see everything we do and we are able to chat whilst we are connected. Please be aware that this is a chargeable facility (at our published rates) and payable via PayPal or credit/debit card on completion of the session. You will then download a small program which will initiate a service request to our console. We also have some limited services available to access Apple iPhones and iPads remotely too through the BASE iOS Applet.
It is surprisingly common to find that a reported fault is often little more than that new game or application purchased last week needs more system resources than your present machine can muster. New programs are designed to make the best of current machines and where your PC is a year or two old you will often find that a little extra memory or some additional disk space can make the difference.

Was recommended by my son who had used Dave before. I had a blue screen on my laptop and no matter what I tried I couldn't get into my pc. I was in urgent need of documents stored on it. I asked if Dave could make it a priority as it was an urgent situation. He said to come over. I live in Northampton btw. Next morning he rang to say we could collect it.
Unfortunately by the time my husband arrived to collect it, it had a black screen and was playing up again. He said he'd have another try and finally got it to work and drove over to Northampton to deliver it back to us. Excellent service and will definitely use Dave again when need help with a temperamental laptop! Oh and great price also. Well worth it.

It's a real joy to write this one. We've been calling on Dave's skills now for well over 10 years since we first had the luck to find him -- probably on a web search. Several of the problems we've posed him over the years have been real tricky ones but he always comes up with some ingenious solution. He's something of a perfectionist without being a slave to mere perfectionism.
And he's punctual -- if he says he'll be there at whatever time, he'll be there either right on time or within a few minutes, and on the extremely rare occasions he may be delayed, he always phones. And he's a real decent guy with a great sense of humour. (And truly -- he doesn't pay me to write this!) It goes without saying but I'll say it anyway, his knowledge of computers is vast. And I can tell you he wont break the bank.
