Adware, malware, spyware, Trojans, worms, hijackers, re-directors and viruses: Oh MY! With the number of threats to our privacy, data and security out there today, it is a wonder we get any work done. Fortunately, today's antivirus software is out there protecting and defending us from evil doers. 

But, sometimes you forget to renew your antivirus subscription, press a button you wished you hadn’t, opened an email from a "friend", or even went to a website you thought was safe. We have all done it.  BAM! Your infected. Pictures of winged, flying pink elephants fill your screen, you get redirected to the jam of the month club or worse you are locked out of your PC accused of going to the most horrible sites.  Your own laptop takes a picture of you and threatens to do more damage if you don’t pay  a ransom. 

Our staff are experts at computer virus removal. Removing today's viruses takes know-how. The bad guys update, modify and reinvent their threats everyday. Most of the PCs we see have "working" antivirus software. Simply running utilities is often not enough. You need to know how the attack works to thoroughly remove it and keep it from re-infecting your pc.

With over 100 DC jacks in stock and most other jacks are a day or 2 away.  PC Crisis is one of the few shops that has the technical electronics expertise and state of the art equipment required to replace DC jacks, power connectors, USB ports and headphone/headset jacks, even those embedded on the motherboard.

PC Crisis offers remote support services.  Many computer troubles are software related mis-configurations.   Using secure remote access software, PC Crisis can remotely troubleshoot and resolve MANY non hardware related issues.  In some cases, we can log on and determine if a trip to the shop is needed ( for this type of support we will have you download and install a small remote access application.  You are always in complete control.  You must read us a code generated on your machine each time we need to reconnect; for example, after a reboot.   Once the support session has concluded the software is automatically uninstalled.)

Is your computer slower than it used to be, but you still love it?  It fits your space exactly the way you like?  Or, has a piece of software that isn't made anymore, and you just want to give it a tune-up? No Problem.  We can add memory, upgrade your old, slow, electro-mechanical, spinning hard drive to a STATE-OF-THE-ART Solid State drive (SSD).   SSDs are often a factor of 5 or more times faster than a mechanical (HDD)  drive.  Even a 5 or 6 year old desktop or laptop will see a marked performance increase.   Since SSD's have no moving parts, they are generally FAR better at surviving the events that used to kill HDDs  ( you know, events like turning the computer on and working with it).  Call Today and get a quote on upgrading to an SSD.   Your computer will come back to you EXACTLY the way it was.  We image the old drive to the new drive, so EVERYTHING is where it was: all your programs are still installed, your documents, pictures, movies, music, saved passwords, and favorites are where you left them last. EVERYTHING.  Just a LOT faster to access and operate.
