    Help for a slow PC or laptop

    A slow computer does not always need replacing. We help separate software problems from hardware limitations, so you can make a sensible decision before spending money on a new machine.

    Individual support from $79 AUD for 60 minutes

    Start with what “slow” means on your computer

    A computer that takes minutes to start is different from a fast computer with slow internet. Tell us whether the delay affects startup, opening programs, a particular app or browsing. The timing helps us investigate the actual bottleneck.

    • Startup apps and unnecessary background software
    • Storage pressure, pending updates and application issues
    • Browser extensions, excessive tabs and unwanted software
    • Evidence that hardware assessment may be needed

    What we can investigate remotely

    With your permission, we can review system resource use, app behaviour and relevant settings. We explain a proposed change before making it. We do not recommend registry cleaners, random driver downloads or deleting files you do not recognise.

    When software changes will not solve it

    Clicking noises, sudden shutdowns, a damaged device or persistent disk errors may need physical diagnosis. Back up irreplaceable files if it is safe to do so. A remote appointment cannot install RAM, replace a drive or guarantee a speed improvement.

    Questions before booking

    Can you speed up an old laptop?

    Sometimes software changes help, but older hardware may remain limited. We can investigate and explain options rather than promise a particular speed increase.
