Laptop Repair

 

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.

Computer Networking Support

 

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.

RESCUECOM Issues Computer Buyer Checklist for Holiday Shoppers

 

You’re not just buying a machine; you’re also buying a company!

Among the most popular holiday gifts this year will be computer laptops, desktops and related products. Those who buy computers as gifts can easily make the wrong purchase if they don’t give their decision the proper thought. With that in mind, RESCUECOM has issued a Holiday Computer Buyer Checklist, items to consider before buying that first computer you see, or the first one the retailer suggests you buy.

With cut-rate pricing, high-pressure sales, and new technology being introduced all the time, confusion ends up being the biggest Grinch for technology shoppers during the holiday season. Those buying computers must think not only about the price of a machine but other factors such as warranties, reliability, how the recipient is likely to use the computer and what additional accessories they are likely to need.

The RESCUECOM Holiday Computer Buyer Checklist is designed to give shoppers guidance in their technology purchasing decisions. If used in conjunction with RESCUECOM’s soon to be released National Computer Reliability Report, shoppers will be ready to make the right purchase this holiday season. Read more »


Winning Is A Choice!

Winning Is A Choice!

The first step in winning in business is to make the conscious choice to do so. If running a business was easy, everyone would do it. What makes it difficult for startups and small businesses to grow is that most people don’t have the level of expertise needed in dealing with all the different disciplines necessary to be successful. The purpose of any startup business, or small business, or even a corporate conglomerate is to increase its revenue, reduce its costs, and thereby increase its profits, and this has to happen in order for market share growth to accumulate and translate to success.
