When you’re on the go and having laptop problems, RESCUECOM’s laptop repair service can respond 24/7 to your wireless, virus, and software issues.

Our techs at RESCUECOM see many laptop repair problems; one of the most common is laptop screen repair. Laptop screens typically use liquid crystal display (or LCD) to show images and are made up of millions of little dots called pixels. When sections of your screen appear distorted or smudged, these pixels are probably “stuck” on one color and may need laptop screen repair. Professional laptop screen repair services may be able to fix or “unstick” small amounts of damaged pixels, or just turn them off so that they appear black. A white or black pixel is a dead pixel, and likely cannot be fixed through laptop screen repair. With too many dead pixels, laptop screen repair may not be enough, and you may need to replace your screen.

Help and expertise for your home or business to go wireless, speed up connections or create a network with RESCUECOM’s computer networking support.

Computer networking allows several computers to communicate with one another and share files, Internet connections, printers and other devices. A router can share an Internet connection from a modem among multiple computers creating what’s called a local area network (LAN).

Wireless technology is enhancing the possibilities of computer networking even further. With proper wireless network adapters, you can connect any computer to a wireless router or WiFi hotspot, or use a wireless router to replace an existing wired network with wireless computer networking support. Wireless connections rely on radio waves, similar to televisions, cell phones and radios. Most new laptops and many desktops come installed with wireless transmitters. There also are wireless cards and USB wireless adapters that you can purchase and install yourself, along with wireless routers, and computer networking support and wireless network troubleshooting help from RESCUECOM, to set up a wireless network.
