Laptop Speed-Ups

Slow computer getting on your nerves? We can help.

Is your laptop taking forever to start up, open programs, or even browse the web? Don't rush out to buy a new one just yet. A slow computer is a common problem, and often, it just needs a good tune-up or a little upgrade to get it back up to speed.

At PC Fix Yeovil, we'll find out what's really causing the slowdown and get your desktop or laptop running smoothly again.

Our pre-repair diagnostics that every slow PC receives will be able to determine the best and most appropriate way of speeding up your PC. This ensures that the fix is evidence based and not a stab in the dark.

Our speed-up options include:

• Software Clean-up: We'll remove all the unnecessary programs and junk files that are bogging down your computer. We'll also optimise your start-up programs to get you up and running faster.

• HDD to SSD Upgrades: This is one of the most effective ways to boost your computer's speed. We can upgrade your old, slow hard drive to a Solid State Drive (SSD) and transfer you photos and documents across. Unlike traditional hard drives that use spinning disks, SSDs use flash memory, so they can access data almost instantly. This makes everything from booting up to opening applications feel snappy and responsive. 

• RAM Upgrades: We can also advise on and install extra RAM (memory) to help with multitasking and running more demanding applications. RAM is your computer's workspace—the more you have, the more tasks it can handle at the same time. 

If you are tired of boiling the kettle while your PC loads, send us a text and we'll book it in for a diagnosis and follow up with a recommended repair.
