What do I get for my money in the flat rate?

---

Before we even get started working on your system, we take it outside, open it up, and expend an entire 12oz can of Dust Off compressed air, cleaning all the dust bunnies out of your computer’s internal components. These dust bunnies are notorious for causing integrated circuits and CPU’s to overheat, thus hampering your systems ability to keep cool. Cooling fans not working as designed and dust bunnies acting like blankets on top of your circuits can cause your system to hang or blue screen when it overheats. A good cleaning inside solves this potential problem and helps the system to run at its optimal performance.

It is very typical for us to spend 20-30 hours tuning your system. We remove between 20,000-30,000 unnecessary files by combing through your directory structures one at a time, by hand. We will also remove unneeded resource taxing programs that crunch your systems performance. Often, Trojan programs piggy back on software updates and start competing for system resources. In time, your system is out of resources and can no longer perform as designed. We fix that.

We will download all missing and required system software updates and patches for all programs installed on your system. We will also download and install newer drivers for all installed hardware devices in your computer.

This intense system once over will have your computer running better than you've ever experienced. If your system is old and needs a recommended hardware memory upgrade of RAM, Brea Computer Repair will guide you through the purchase process and perform this installation as part of the flat rate.

As a final touch, we like to install new virus protection software (Microsoft Defender), new photo editing software, an additional browser (Google Chrome), Adobe Reader, Remote Control Software (TeamViewer), Video Playback Software (VLC Media Player), new satellite world exploring software (Google Earth) and finally, Apple’s iTunes. Again, all part of the flat rate service. Best of all, these programs are the best of the best and their all free.

And if that wasn’t enough, if you supply Brea Computer Repair with a valid Microsoft Corporation operating system (OS) product key and/or a valid Microsoft Corporation Office product key, Brea Computer will upgrade your operating system and your office suite as part of our service. Why not think about upgrading to Windows 10 Operating System or upgrading to Microsoft 365? We’ll do all of the work of installing and downloading all required updates and patches for your new software.

If you’re upgrading from a completely compromised system, don’t worry. Brea Computer Repair will remove all of your personal data; then completely wipe out your hard drive by deleting all known drive partitions and then running a low level format before installing your new copy of Windows 10. This will insure a smooth installation and end user experience. We will put all of your data back onto the hard drive in its appropriate system directory. We will make sure to find online and install your older drivers, if possible, to continue to run your older and possibly un-supported hardware at its optimal performance level.

If you're upgrading from Microsoft Windows 7 or 8 to Windows 10, then Brea Computer Repair will help you understand what it means to migrate into a cloud based infrastructure while exploring the advantages of an operating system designed for touch screen monitors.

Get your money's worth out of your computer system. Yes you can stretch a few more years out of your hardware with these outlined steps.

Let Brea Computer Repair take care of the headaches for you.
