Computer Servicing
and Cleaning
Science has proven that a clean box is a happy box. A poor performing, sluggish, dirty box isn't something anybody wants to touch, especially when friends and family want to use it. Mr. Box offers a wealth of cleaning and maintenance services to keep it running smoothly and efficiently.
What We Do
-
Operating System Check
How is your operating system holding up? We'll check startup processes, installed software, browsers, tracking and telemetry, and security. We can determine what should stay and what needs to go, making sure your box is behaving itself.
-
Security and Update Check
We'll check your security settings and OS updates to make sure you've got the latest protection. If it's lackluster in any way or behaves like a TSA agent with a bad attitude, we'll make the necessary changes to optimize security.
-
Tracking and Telemetry Disabling
Not too dissimilar to a creepy stalker, modern operating systems spy on you now more than ever. They track your time spent on your computer or device, which apps you use, what you search for, and even how you type. We can remove and disable most of these features, including stock "apps" that do the same thing, to minimize data collection.
-
Windows Registry Cleaning
The registry is a robust database that contains settings and other information for Windows and most installed applications. From time to time, it can get a bit cluttered and old software can sometimes leave entries behind. While cleaning the registry isn't going to yield performance gains, it never hurts to keep things tidy and organized. Remember, a clean box is a happy box.
-
Disk Defragmentation
While this isn't as common of a maintenance task in the modern age of solid state drives, mechanical hard drives still benefit from it. Hard disk defragmentation takes all the data scattered across your drive and consolidates it into the same physical area. If you move a lot of data on and off a drive, defragmenting can help your box avoid a much-needed lidocaine patch by hunting around less to find where to read and write.
-
Dust and Particle Cleansing
Your box needs to breathe and stay cool to survive. Dust and heat subject your computer to a slow, painful death. We can physically clean your computer case, fans, power supply, and internal components. If things are looking real bad, we'll completely disassemble the machine and give it a good scrub.
-
Data Corruption Repair
If your box is failing to boot, spitting out unreadable text jargon, or giving you that insulting blue screen with the stupid sad face, not all is lost. We can fix many disk corruption errors, including boot sectors, partition tables, and critical system files.
-
Operating System Installation
Sometimes the best course of action is to throw in the towel and start over, completely wiping your box and installing a fresh, clean copy of the operating system. Should this become necessary, we'll install your licensed OS including the latest drivers and make sure all security patches and updates are included. Don't worry about losing your data; we can backup and transfer personal files, music, pictures, and most software settings to your new installation.
