Computer Upgrades

We take a very conservative approach to computer upgrades. Too many times, in our 14-plus years in the computer industry, We've seen upgrades turn out to be downgrades!

A few things to consider
before you start your upgrade

If it Ain't Broke, Don't Fix It!

After years of propaganda from the advertising industry, many of us have come to believe their hype. Just because someone's marketing department screams New & Improved doesn't mean you have to have it. If your computer is doing the job you want from it, and the new features of some upgraded program offer nothing you need, why run the risks of an upgrade? After all, the software company's primary goal is to SELL more software.

If it "IS" Broke, Don't Upgrade It!

If your computer is suffering from any problems DON'T UPGRADE IT! Contrary to popular belief, upgrading a poorly running computer seldom fixes any problems, and many times, worsens your woes. Fix the root problem before you try to do any upgrades. Even many of the so-called computer repair programs can cause more problems than they fix.

Check with others before you start

Not just with one guy down the street. If your friend or relative had no problems with a particular upgrade, doesn't mean the same upgrade will go well for you. Many times small differences between one computer's hardware, and its installed software, can mean the difference between success and failure. Go to Deja News and see what people, all over the world, are saying about the particular upgrade you are contemplating.

Major upgrades can be major work

Major upgrades, like a new motherboard, can require a complete reformat and reload of your hard drive. Windows integrates very closely with the motherboard. Replacing the motherboard without cleaning and completely reloading the operating system can leave you with a very unstable computer.

 BUT if  your computer running slow? Need more space for digital pictures and videos? It might be time for an upgrade. Our certified technicians can evaluate your systems and upgrade it in most efficient way to accommodate your needs.
