Full PC Support
Dealing with a slow or unresponsive PC can be frustrating, especially when you rely on it for work, school, or everyday tasks. Fortunately, many common PC issues can be diagnosed and fixed at home without needing expert help. Here’s your quick-start guide to getting your system back in shape.
- Slow Performance
If your PC is crawling, start by checking your Task Manager (Ctrl + Shift + Esc) to see what’s using up your CPU, RAM, or disk. Disable unnecessary startup programs and uninstall bloatware. Running a virus scan can also help if malware is the cause. - Unexpected Shutdowns or Restarts
Overheating is a common culprit. Clean your fans and vents using compressed air. Also, check for failing hardware like the power supply or RAM. Tools like HWMonitor can help you monitor internal temperatures. - No Internet Connection
First, check your router and cables. Then run Windows’ built-in network troubleshooter. If you’re using Wi-Fi, update your network drivers and try resetting your adapter settings. - Blue Screen of Death (BSOD)
BSODs often indicate hardware or driver issues. Note the error code shown on the blue screen, then search it online. Tools like Bluescreen View can help you interpret crash dump files. - Software Crashes or Freezes
Ensure your operating system and apps are updated. If a program keeps crashing, reinstall it or try running it in compatibility mode.
Remember: Always backup your data before making major changes. Tools like Macrium Reflect or Windows Backup can help.
With a little patience and the right steps, many PC problems can be solved without a trip to the repair shop!
