At JITS we believe that basic computer maintenance and repair can be done easily at home. Some common problems are random error messages, computer being too slow, blue screen, frozen screen, and automatic rebooting. It’s a common misconception that repairing a computer requires a lot of expertise. In actuality, any common person can service simple computer problems.
The obvious benefit of repairing the PC is the cost advantage. You save the amount you pay to service person and also get any parts or software to be replaced at a lower rate. You can save your money by fixing the problem on your own. Another advantage is the time taken to get the PC up and running. One common problem is when a blue screen appears and the PC does not work at all. In this case, you will have to restart the computer as there is no other option. This is called a STOP error and it can be fixed by using the appropriate STOP code. These codes can be found online quite easily. Depending on the error, the user can choose the best one and resolve the problem. By learning how to solve these basic PC problems, the user can avoid bigger and more difficult problems down the line.
Check the computer and identify the problem. In some instances, all it takes is to restart the computer. If this does not work, check the antivirus and spyware software to see if they are updated. Restart the computer in safe mode and type the F8 key which displays the boot screen. Run virus scans to check for virus issues. If the screen does not appear, you may need to call in a professional. A scan disk or defrag check can also be done to check for errors and mostly these steps would solve the problem on your PC.
If you are still not sure, it’s best to seek professional help. Do not hesitate to contact JITS today.
