Myths about repair of computers and IT people

Written By anfaku01 on Thursday, June 9, 2011 | 2:21 PM

1) my computer guy knows everything about every program out there.

There are so many programs around, and they are constantly changing. It takes more than life to learn them all. While tech Repair computer may know about common applications (i.e. words, quick books, etc.), they may not know anything about specific programs for your industry or other applications that are not commonly used.

This is not abnormal.

In addition, your tech does not "fix the usual" problems with websites (like Facebook) because the Web site itself is actually on a different server that only people who administer the Web site you can access (the same rule applies: no one knows everything about each website).

He or she may be able to tell you why you are having problems with it or can configure settings on your computer to fix some minor issues, but this is usually limited in what it can do and the real problems with the Web site should be left to people who own and operate it.

2) my neighbor or my boy/friend/colleague teenager youth can be corrected.

Kudos for the older generation to the younger generations show positive credit for at least something. Too bad that this is nothing more than an error in reasoning.

There are some pretty computer savvy teenagers around who can write programs, troubleshooting hardware and computer architecture. But most young people wisdom in the form of using the Internet, special programmes and using the computer as a whole (this is likely due to the fact that they grew up with PCS).

People like this is called "power users". This gives another opportunity to detect, install and configure hardware and software, especially on complex networks and servers.

Calls for refurbishment of the computer has done for me, because the owner of PC let his teens or twenty something have a crack at fixing it first, thus making the problem worse.

3) need to be a scientist, engineer or technician computer to fix my own computer.

So maybe your 18-year-old is not exactly an IT computer you thought he was. This does not mean you should just kick out $ 250 for this repair.

Removal of many computer problems it's sort of like walking a tight rope: you do not need to be a genius, you just need to know how to do it.

Many repair easily and requires little or no technical knowledge. Here's what my website (see link in the resource box) is here to show you.

4) I would like to know if my computer has been infected by viruses, spyware and other malware.

Sometimes you will, but not all malware is more evident.

Often malware is designed to run quietly in the background, so he can enter key press, the Web sites you visit and try to steal data and passwords, to send them back by someone.

Others can turn your PC into a spam machine without your knowledge.

5) I buy a new computer for $ 350, so I'm going to break up old computer instead of to fix it.

Computers that sell for less than $ 500 is very inexpensive, cheaply made machines. They are equipped with low-grade processors; a modest amount of RAM; small, slow hard drives; and cheap.

Buy one and you will soon wish you didn't. Senior (5 years or less) computer can often be repaired or for relatively cheap price.

If you do so then the only cost is software or hardware that you buy. Then you will get an additional 2-4 years.

Remember the golden rule of purchases-you get what you pay for.

And Yes, it's true, even for computers.

6) computer repair is always worth a fortune.

See paras. 3 and 5.
