Busy day again today. A client brought in a laptop for data recovery. The computer would not Boot past the Bios screen. He had taken it to PC World and they could not help him. It was not a standard HDD but an eMMC drive. I ran test after test and each one came to the conclusion the drive was unreadable. I do like a challange. You can see from the photo the drive was completley dead. During the day I had an idea on how to get the information from the dead drive and made up a couple of special self booting CDs to see if I could gain access to the drive. The first CD just sat there spinning for a while and just gave up. The second CD however spinned for a while and suddenly I had a screen up and running that gave me access to 99.9% of the drive. It was amazing. I quickly coppied all the users profiles with all the files and folders. The client was called to let him know the files and documents were recovered.

Hi everyone. It won't be long before windows 7 is no longer supported. It makes me laugh because windows 7 is not to bad. In my opinion windows 8 and 8.1 should go and keep windows 7. Windows 10 is not without its problems either. The problem with windows 10 upgrading is the cost of windows 10. In Currys and PC world it is over £100.00 which is rediculous as at one time it was free.

Had a couple of minutes at lunch to make up these three sums to screw with your mind.

Did a laptop repair a few days ago for a client. She told me about her dads website that wasn't showing up on page one of the search engines. We went through the most common terms to see where he was ranked and it was pretty grim. only one search term was picked up and it was only used about 20,000 times a year worldwide. Two days later when she collected her laptop I showed her the amazing results I achieved in only 2 days. He is now listed in all the main search engines on page 1, some with multiple listings and world wide search terms above 60 million a year. Typing Clamshell hire, Clam hire, Grab hire, and many other related search terms into google shows John S L Watson Haulage on page 1.The website is clamshellhire.co.uk. Imagine paying a company for over a year and not getting a good listing on google? I did this in 2 days with no access to the back end of their website.

Another busy day at Coatbridge in the office. Always a great feeling when a client gives you a couple of products to set up and promote through the search engines. Listed 2 products and less than 12 hours later had them listed on page 1 number 1.

It has been a long day. just completed a firestick with over 20 tv and movie apps. I have a machine in for a hard drive recovery. My recovery scan is now on its 15th day with another 7 to go. Over 60,000 damaged sectors repaired so far. The new drive has arrived and when the scan is complete I will clone it on to the new one. A happy machine went back to its owner this evening. A windows 10 update knocked it out and destroyed the photos and documents. It was touch and go for a while but it made a full recovery.

It has been a busy few weeks. Websites on the go, gaming machines being built, upgraded or repaired, tweaking slow machines to make them super fast again and firesticks being setup or updated. With the latest update to windows 10 a large number of people are having issues with their computers and laptops. If you are unable to resolve any issues ust give me a call.
