Subject: Choosing Your Computer Geek
(Posted on Jul 7, 2010 at 10:59AM) Tags: fix your computer, computer technician, telephone support, home service With the yellow pages and online classifieds fill of ads form computer repair geek companies, claiming the best rate and best technicians, you need to do some research to find the right one for you. You do not want to be spending money, and not get your computer problem solved. Follow the simple guidelines below to avoid problems, when selecting your computer repair geeks. Ask the company what their minimum charge up front would be. Most companies refer to this charge as their diagnostics fee. Some companies have an exorbitant minimum and they will charge this regardless of whether or not they get the diagnosis right. So the second question logically follows, âIf the diagnosis is incorrect, do you still charge?â The answer really should be âNoâ, or at the very least, the company should be willing to split the difference of the diagnosis should you prove that the computer repair geek technician concluded the wrong problem. Ask the company what their âno fixâ policy is? In other words, if a technician comes out to your business or home and attempts to fix your computer or network problem but is unsuccessful, will you be charged for his time and effort? Really you shouldnât be charged. If the technician does not have the skills necessary to resolve your problem, you shouldnât be charged for his attempts. Ask the company if they are bonded or have had thorough background checks run on their technicians? Character is everything in the computer repair geek industry. Ask the company if their computer repair geeks are experienced? Some companies (I wonât mention any names), hire any pimple faced high school nerd as long as they will up sell services to the companyâs clients. Skills and experience are not always taken into account for a lot of computer repair geek companies, or at least, are they not prioritized properly in the order of importance. Ask the company if they have any local referrals in your area that you can call and check up on their past work. Remember; look for computer repair geeks that operate under a national company here, not an individual advertising in the classifieds, at a very low rate, that he can solve all your problems. If you have a bad experience, you have no recourse with an individual, but with a good computer repair geek company, you can usually get the problem solved. Hiring a company, instead of an individual, also has his assets, as the geek that comes over to your place to fix your computer, may not have all the answers, but he has an office, and team of fellow geeks, that he can fall back on and get your problem solved. So, remember to ask all the right questions above when you are selecting your computer repair geek company. The reputation of the company and the quality of the technician will be very important factors in getting your computer up and running. Most national computer repair geek companies are quite good, and when you find one, you will be happy you did the proper research. for further information feel free to call GoGoGeek at 1-800-404-4335 or visit us on the web at http://www.gogogeek.com

Subject: Understanding Your Computer: Web Browsers
(Posted on Jul 6, 2010 at 11:28AM) Tags: vision-impaired, computer support, computer repair vancouver, computer help Web browsers allow you to navigate the internet. There are a variety of options available, so you can choose the one that best suits your needs. How do web browsers work? When you open your browser and type in a web address (URL) for a website, the browser submits a request to the server, or servers, that provide the content for that page. The browser then processes the code from the server (written in a language such as HTML, JavaScript, or XML) and loads any other elements (such as Flash, Java, or ActiveX) that are necessary to generate content for the page. After the browser has gathered and processed all of the components, it displays the complete, formatted web page. Every time you perform an action on the page, such as clicking buttons and following links, the browser continues the process of requesting, processing, and presenting content. How many browsers are there? Internet Explorer How do you choose a browser? compatibility - Does the browser work with your operating system? security - Do you feel that your browser offers you the level of security you want? ease of use - Are the menus and options easy to understand and use? functionality - Does the browser interpret web content correctly? If you need to install other plug-ins or devices to translate certain types of content, do they work? appeal - Do you find the interface and way the browser interprets web content visually appealing? Can you have more than one browser installed at the same time? Most vendors give you the option to download their browsers directly from their websites. Make sure to verify the authenticity of the site before downloading any files. To further minimize risk, follow other good security practices, like using a firewall and keeping anti-virus software up to date.

Subject: 5 Ways To Make Your PC Easier To see
(Posted on Jul 5, 2010 at 06:24PM) Tags: 50+, easy computing, resolution, computer support, live help now
Do you find yourself fighting the urge to press your nose against the screen because you can't see text and images clearly?
Maybe you were born finding it hard to see up close, maybe you're just finding it difficult now, -- and, sigh, it's true -- as you rack up birthdays, sooner or later you're going to experience some changes in your vision. But changes in your eyesight don't have to interfere with your ability to see things on your computer. Make your text larger No, the text is not getting smaller. But you can make the text and other items -- your icons, folders, and mouse pointer-- larger. How? By increasing the dots per inch (DPI) scale. If you need to make everything fit on the screen, you can decrease the size of the text, and then use the Magnifier to see the text as you type. You can also quickly make just the icons on your desktop larger and easier to see.
Need more help? Call GoGo Geek 1 800 404-4335 You can change the look of your mouse cursor so it is easier for you to quickly and easily see on-screen. Try selecting a new pointer style, and also try changing the color and size of your mouse pointer.
Improve your screen resolution Screen resolution refers to the clarity of the text and images on your screen. At higher resolutions, items appear sharper, but they also appear smaller, so more items fit on the screen. At lower resolutions, fewer items fit on the screen, but they are larger and easier to see. Choose a screen resolution that is better for your eyes. Still scratching your head, give GoGoGeek a call. Our live help is ready. 1-800-404-4335
