PC Upgrades

Upgrading your hardware and software is a great way to get more from your computer. Be aware that laptop computers are not nearly as upgradable as desktop PCs, but add memory (RAM) or a Solid State Drive (SSD) and see an immediate and noticable speed improvement.

Every component in a desktop PC can be replaced, but only certain components in a laptop computer can be upgraded.

Server upgrades should be left to specialists like PW Computers Ltd.

Upgrading the operating system can provide a significant boost for your computer.

Data Backup

The amount of data stored on our computers is increasing dramatically. Terabytes of information stored in documents, movies, music, photos and in thousands of e-mails. We can offer numerous methods of backing up your data.

Users on business networks 'dump' the contents of their hard drives onto the server in an attempt to backup their machine. This causes real headaches for IT staff responsible for backing up the server. We have experienced this and have solutions available.

When your hard-drive crashes, you lose everything. Suddenly you realise what you have lost, and wish you had a backup of your data.

External USB hard drives are ever increasing in capacity and rapidly coming down in price and are ideal for data backup.

Many companies offer online data storage for a monthly fee, which is handy if you travel a lot and need access to your data from anywhere in the world. Uploading is however slow, and there are so many solutions on offer, users get confused where there data actually is and end up duplicating storage. Bare in mind, that if your membership lapses, you could lose your data, since its not stored on a piece of equipment you own.

How best to backup your data, and what equipment and software to use is a problem for the inexperienced. We can help you.

Data recovery

Data stored on any media: hard drive, memory stick, DVD/CD etc; can be easily lost, but often can be recovered. Data can be lost by accidental error, hardware/software failure, electrical surges/outages, malfunction, sabotage, vandalism or virus/malware attack.

We offer a "free" diagnosis, and our policy is "if we can't recover the data you won't pay a penny".

We follow a two phase recovery process: "Evaluation, then data Recovery".

During the evaluation stage, if we cannot help you, we will not limit your chance of recovery by another company. This means your media can be returned exactly in the same state as it was when we first got it.

If we can't recover your data we won't charge for the evaluation. If we can recover your data and you engage our services, we will endeavour to recover as much data as possible from your defective media.

Virus Protection

Protecting your computers from viruses and malware is essential. Don't be caught out by letting your subscription run out or by acquiring the wrong level of protection, which can result in slow performance and abnormal operation. We can help you secure your computer from attack. If you are unlucky to have an infected PC we can remove the virus/malware and return your computer to its formal working state. If that is not possible we can backup your data, repair your PC and restore the data.

PC Tuning

Over time PCs eventually slow down as software is added/removed, users inadvertantly tamper with settings, software corrupts the Windows registry and more. We can tune your computer by removing unwanted packages, fix corruption and optimise the operating system. We can even backup your data, wipe the computer clean and restore it to full operational mode. A reconditioned machine can work out much cheaper than buying new.
