New Computer Setup and Install
Have a new computer to set up? Have it installed the right way and clear of the
unneeded clutter before you even begin. Businesses and Residential, large or
small scale, if you need it set up we are there! Windows, Macintosh, or Linux!
Preventative Maintenance
No one wants to be spied on, but the truth is there are a lot of people who
want your information. Credit Cards, bank accounts, phone numbers, email
addresses, the list goes on and on. We put safe guards in place for every
computer that enters our shop before it goes on the internet! Unless advised or
provided with disks from a customer, we promise to keep all the software we use
open source, legal, and free to the consumer! That’s right: no marked up
software, no trying to sell things you don’t want or need, and no hassle! We strive to be the best computer repair shop in St. Augustine!
Backup Services with Computer Repair
Files and data run our everyday lives. If they are lost it feels almost like an empty pit in your stomach, knowing there is no way to ever get the valuable information back. We perform one free backup (stored for a month or less at your discretion) with every computer repair or electronics recycling service rendered. We also perform a backup of the entire hard drive if it is deemed anything higher than a "medium" risk. To us a "medium" risk is anything more than basic cleaning, odd noises, or a possibly invasive hard drive diagnostic. Just remember: drives that are unstable are just that. At any time during a computer repair or diagnostic they can crash. It is rare that this happen while we are in possession of the drive and not before, but it DOES happen. We will do a full backup regardless of what we deem the risk if the customer asks.
Computer Maintenance and Cleaning: Hardware
and Software
Computer
software and hardware have come a long way in today’s world. Unfortunately
where there is positive intent for computing there will always be the malicious
user. Ancient City Computer Services can remove any bad or malicious files from
your computer; whether it be a virus, Trojan, key logger, malware, or any other threat, our computer repair services top them all!
It may
sound crazy but dust can destroy a computer physically. All homes have dust and
there are only a few ways to get around it ever being able to enter your
system. All of our software and diagnostics come with a free compressed air
treatment to the inside of each piece of hardware. You will find that with over 40 years combined experience and a love for the computer repair industry, we are the top computer repair and electronics recycling facility in St. Augustine!
Diagnostic* & System Tune-Up
Your car is a finely tuned machine that needs regular maintenance (oil changes,
wiper blade replacement, coolant added, etc.) to keep it running and in good
working order. Your computer is the same. This complicated system capable of
making trillions of calculations every second needs to be tuned-up
from time to time for the very best performance. Is your PC reacting sluggishly
and not performing the way it should? You may need a computer repair. Getting pop-ups, unexplained web sites,
or other strange computer behavior? You may need a computer repair. Seeing the dreaded Blue Screen of Death? You may need computer repair!
These scenarios generally suggest that you may have a virus, spy-ware, or a corrupt operating system. We can fix that and just
about any other problem you throw our way! Not only do we use experience, but we also
keep in mind that times are tough. If you need affordable computer repair with
experience, confidence, and certified technicians, you have come to the right
place! Out of your budget? No problem! We can work with you and will never take a step that will cost you more without your permission!
Free Second Opinion Services
Don't trust a diagnostic turnout? Think someone is trying to pull the wool over your eyes price wise? Is other computer repair just too expensive? Come to us with a printout or summary of the problem in 100% confidence that it can be resolved. We will allow you to watch us perform diagnostics, no hidden rooms or fees, and show you what turns up and what it takes to repair it. Computer repair is what we specialize in, but we also strive to be the number one computer repair shop in St. Augustine!
Memory Upgrade
We have the ability to make your computer faster and it doesn’t cost hundreds
of dollars! Why spend hundreds on a new computer or take it to a shop elsewhere? We can speed up your computer, old or new, by upgrading your memory (RAM)
to accommodate your computing needs.
Data Recovery and Hard Drive Installation
A new hard drive is essential in some cases. For example a computer hard drive
crashes or the drive just toasts from lightning. We can attempt to recover data
from most drives and return it to the user good as new, or install a new hard
drive in the target system to transfer the data on. For more information on a sure-fire way to tell if your hard drive is completely dead visit our FAQ.
Service Plan
Have your computer put on a service plan to keep it running smoothly. Set up a
plan to maintain your computer monthly, quarterly, or semi annually depending
upon your use or needs.
Coming Soon: Business Package levels! Choose from Tier 1, Tier 2, or Tier 3! More details to come!
(Computer repair in St. Augustine only; Computer repair service packages in Jacksonville coming in the near future)
Operating System Upgrade
Is your computer stuck in the 90’s? Think your Commodore64 is still top of the line? Been wanting to try the spicy new Windows 7
or latest Mac OSX version? Let us know
your hardware, or bring in your computer for a free evaluation, and we can let
you know the best way to pursue your choice of upgrade! Just remember: talking is always free! Other computer repair shops may charge an arm and a leg for advice, but we would rather teach our customers than charge them just for asking a question. To contact us with any questions visit our Contact Us page.
Data Transfer
Get a new computer and need your data transferred or backed up? Have a computer
you want to turn in for the ReBucks Program but don’t want to lose your family photos? Data
transfer is the service you need! NOTE: If a computer is turned in for the
Recycling program, we can place all your old data onto an external drive (not
provided) or transfer it to your PC for FREE! Computer Repair service is not needed for free backup of information when using the ReBucks program! We will always reward those who
do right and help by going green!
Network Installation
Need a new wire dropped in your home or office? Tired of having people steal
your wireless network? Not sure the best methods of encryption, speed, or network
style? You have come to the right place! Our Network+ / Security+ technician
can have you up, running, and secured in no time!*
Recycling Services Offered
We are now accepting all electronics for recycling! Have an
old computer, broken printer, useless cables, or even something like a
microwave sitting around? Don't throw it into the landfill with the
tons of other trash; turn it in to us and participate in the ReBucks
Program! According to the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA),
the United States generated 245.7 million tons of municipal solid waste
in 2005. E-waste accounted for approximately 2.2 million tons of that
total. The EPA estimates that 379,000 tons of e-waste were recycled
nationwide in 2005. The remainder — more than 80 percent — was
landfilled.
You can help the environment, local charities, and yourself by
bringing in your old, unused, or broken technology at no charge! Our
