"Prompt, Courteous care for your PC in the Greater Portland Metropolitan Area"
Keith Gilman, founder of PDX PC Fixer, has been building, upgrading, and repairing PCs in the Portland area since 1998, and has obtained the A+ and Network+ COMPTIA certifications.
Spyware and virus attacks can seriously cripple a system, sometimes incapacitating even the fastest computers. If your system in running slower than usual, it may have a virus, spyware or simply be in need of an upgrade. PDX PC Fixer specializes in diagnosing and repairing these problems.
"A survey conducted by Internet service provider America Online found that 20 percent of home computers were infected by a virus or worm, and that various forms of snooping programs such as spyware and adware are on a whopping 80 percent of systems. Despite that, more than two thirds of home users think they are safe from online threats." (Paul Roberts, IDG News Service Monday, October 25, 2004).
Do you need your system cleaned and optimized so that it performs at the peak of its abilities? Has a friend or relative given you a computer and you would like it evaluated and upgraded? PDX PC Fixer is here to help.
Here is what some of our customers have to say:
"We asked Keith to help us revive an old PC that runs our information display system. It was no longer supported by the State of Oregon and even the local IBM tech couldnt keep it from crashing. Keith was very persistent in troubleshooting the problem and got the system running again. He is very thorough and has a good knowledge base with both old and the newest technology." -S.H. ( This older PC was just maintained poorly and needed a little tune-up.)
"Thank you for fixing my computer. I have had it out to a lot of different people for fixing and every time it has been returned with a lot of missing data. This is the first time it has been returned right and just the way I wanted it.Thanks so much." -M.H. ( A few malware programs slowed this faster machine down so badly that surfing the internet was nearly impossible.)
"Keith swiftly diagnosed and repaired my ailing computer. I am very happy with his services." -M.P. (This computer was showing the Blue Screen of Death.)
"Keith was very knowledgeable and helpful in upgrading my system." -C.K.(A faster processor, more RAM, and a Video Videocard were added to this system.)
