Scot went the extra-mile to diagnose the real issues and fix them

I did not need a new computer, Scot went the extra-mile to diagnose the real issues and fix them. I am currently running my business out of my home, which everyone knows means that all technical ‘support’ falls squarely on my shoulders! I run some operationally heavy applications on my laptop, and their performance is crucial. I started noticing that the performance of my laptop was worsening by the day. Not only was I getting the dreaded “Blue Screen” followed by my system crashing, but also my CPU usage was nearing 100% and everything that I was running was slowing
…
way down. I feared my only solution was to buy a new computer! Without knowing what to do, I did a quick internet search of technical support in my area and discovered Scot. What a Lifesaver! I now feel like I have my own IT department!! Scot arrived at my house on time and ready to work. It turns out this was not your run-of-the mill issue that could be solved by simply ‘deleting cookies’ and scanning for viruses. Scot took the time to REALLY figure out what was going on. The issues were complicated and not straight-forward, but Scot went the extra-mile to diagnose the real issues and fix them. It was very clear that the performance of my ‘machine’ was important to him. I am happy to say that my computer is restored to it’s original glory and I do NOT need a new computer! Not only that, there was one lingering item that bothered him about the speed of my processor (Intel CORE i7) that didn’t sit right with him so he did some further research after he left and even CALLED me the next day with a solution that he found. He walked me through it and, BINGO, my CORE i7 is now performing as it should. This is not your ordinary ‘technical support’. Scot is an experienced professional who brings comprehensive knowledge to bear. I am extremely pleased with the results and relieved to know that I now have a resource to call on if I run across technical issues.

I highly recommend Scot to get your computer running in tip top shape

My wife Lucia had gone to her Rosary & Altar Society meeting where Scot was answering the audience’s computer related questions. Since our computer was very slow at getting onto the internet and running applications, we decided to call Scot. He upgraded the memory, substituted our antivirus for a more efficient one, removed programs that we didn’t use, cleaned up the junk files and defragged the hard drive. When we got the computer back we were pleasantly surprised on how much faster it was. I highly recommend Scot to get your computer running in tip top shape.

Scot’s visit was the most effective diagnosis and fix I’ve ever had. AWESOME JOB!

I had a really difficult virus infestation that caused my hard drive to spin continuously. Norton couldn’t deal with it and our IT guy had one suggestion – no help. One day in walked Scot who actually thought through the problem, and with some special tools scanned my computer for spyware and viruses and found 13 different Win32 infestations. He also suggested a memory upgrade which he installed for a very reasonable cost, found software updates I wasn’t aware of, defragged the hard drive, and left me with a screaming machine and a silent hard drive! I’ve used a pc
…
every day since the AT’s – dos floppy to boot and worked for large companies where I was typically the IT guys go-to for translating their instructions into human speak. Scot’s visit was the most effective diagnosis and fix I’ve ever had. AWESOME JOB!

Scot saved me countless hours of trying to do everything myself

My husband had passed away and I was left with two laptops. I needed to find someone to get them in shape. I came across Scot from Scot Fixes PCs. I read many of the testimonials so I knew he was the person I needed. I spoke to Scot and brought the laptops to him. He told me that he would take a look at them and contact me with what the next steps would be. Scot contacted me and asked me what I wanted and he told me what was going on. My biggest complaint was that both laptops
…
were slow. Scot cleaned them up, installed MS Office, installed a newer version of Windows 10 on one of the laptops, installed antivirus, and a program that made Windows 10 look similar to Windows 7. He also defragged the hard drives. What an improvement! The laptops ran like when they were first purchased. Boy am I glad I found Scot. I am a visiting nurse so I am pretty busy. Scot saved me countless hours of trying to do everything myself. If you want your computer to run like the first day you bought it, contact Scot. You won’t be disappointed!
