Computer repair shops\nin Vancouver<\/strong> provide dozens of different services and it can get\nconfusing. Whether it\u2019s a small shop, an\nonsite technician, or a large corporation, the product names and the services\nthey provide can sound like gibberish to the untrained ear. We thought it might be helpful to understand exactly\nwhat the names mean and the services they provide. <\/p>\n\n\n\n A virus is one of the most dangerous problems that can\naffect your computer. When your computer is attacked, it can completely shut\ndown your computer and steal all kinds of data. \nComputer technicians may refer to this as any of the following: Malware,\nVirus, Trojans, Trojan Horse, Infected system, Worms, and Nucleocapsid. Although the last one is used more in\nreference to biological viruses, it is a great term basically describing the\nenclosed program that is hiding the computer virus. <\/p>\n\n\n\n You\u2019ll often hear solutions such as: Antivirus, Virus Scan, Virus Protection, Antivirus Agent.\u00a0 These words generally refer to the same process of finding, removing, and protecting your system from any virus.\u00a0 In our current world with all kinds of viruses attacking<\/a>, it is vital to have this solution in place.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Data loss is something that can get anyone worried.

This why we have\nback-up & recovery services. This may\nbe referred to as Back-Up, Copy, System Image, Restore, Shadow Copy, or System Restore. It often consists of partitioning or reserving\na space on your hard drive to copy the operating system and\/or having a\ncompletely separate hard drive (possibly even an external hard drive) that\ncopies everything including the operating system, and all programs, data, and files. Having a back-up reduces the anxiety of\nknowing you could lose your system at any moment. And if you do have a system crash, it can\nsave precious time and data from being lost forever.<\/p>\n\n\n\n It is so frustrating to be in the middle of a process and\nhave the computer freeze up on you. In\nother words, your computer screen will come to a standstill or the screen will\ngo all blue with an error message and you are not able to do anything without\nrestarting. Sometimes technicians will use\nthese terms to describe it: Freezing, Hanging, Overheating, System Failure, Blue\nScreen, Blue Screen Error, Blue Screen of Death, and a variety of other terms\nthat may not be appropriate?. There\nare a lot of potential reasons that this may occur. Anything from out of date drivers, to uninstalled\nupdates, to incompatible software, to overheating components, to failing\nhardware, etc., etc. This is usually a\ndifficult problem to address so you will hear solutions range from any of the\nfollowing: Tune Up, Optimize, Reinstall, Format, Clean-Up, Speed-Up, and generally\nComputer Repair.

Just\nlike any machine that has moving parts, these pieces tend to breakdown with\nusage. That said, usually hardware\nissues occur to just one small part of a machine, which can be replaced. The specific component can vary in cost and\nthe removal\/installation of the new component can be quick or it may require\nmany detailed steps. Because these\nrepairs can vary so widely, you\u2019ll want to have an experienced technician evaluate\nthe issue and determine the amount of time it will take to fix the problem. Without the estimate, you may be setting\nyourself up for a long repair that will add up in cost.<\/p>\n\n\n\nRemoving Viruses:<\/h4>\n\n\n\n
