I have moved to a "By Appointment Only" schedule to make sure I’m always ready for you when you arrive! To guarantee a time slot and save yourself a drive, please contact me to book a visit between 10:00 AM and 4:00 PM, Monday through Friday.

The best way to reach me is via email: [email protected]

If you prefer to call, you can reach me at 937-504-4226 to schedule with me.

(Heads up: I can’t receive texts on this line, and my voicemail has been unreliable lately—so if I miss your call, shoot me an email and I’ll get right back to you!)

Be well, and thanks for being such great customers and if your new I look forward to helping you soon!

Happy Fri-Yay!

I'm formatting a hard drive and installing Windows 11 Pro. I use my software to specify which features I want or don't want. I can also bypass the TPM requirement Microsoft update often disallows folks to upgrade to W-11. I always use the local account setup in admin mode rather than having to setup a Microsoft account just to install the operating system. This provides the user more freedom to sign into what they want to rather than being required to. The customer can still sign into their Google, Microsoft, Yahoo etc accounts if they want by simply going to the site and sign in. Then they can save their login info and the next time they visit they will automatically be signed in. Once the OS is installed it updates to the latest version.

Need your computer or hard drive setup? Come see me. Be well - Mike.

I work with all types of hard drives but not just installing operating systems on them. My software I use I am able to program, edit, partition, perform special configs and manage all aspects of any hard drive be it mechanical or SSD. Here I'm configuring a 128GB SSD for a customer to be used as a flash drive. When I'm finished it can be ejected just like a regular flash drive (aka thumb drive) rather than pulled out which more often than not corrupts the flash drive. I also can configure the SSD to be used as RAM via the paging file system. I have developed a few tweaks to prevent it from slowing the physical RAM sticks. Be well - Mike.

When a customer wants to add different browsers, utilities, windows features, multimedia players, messaging or email or other add ons in their computer I utilize software that will auto install the programs directly into the computer. The customer will then only have to sign in to their selected software using their associated accounts. Some setup by the customer for certain programs is required after installation but its very basic info the program requires such as user name and password. This makes the process easy and quick for the customer.

I can also uninstall software and programs including bloatware commonly installed on new computers. I am always trying to streamline the process when it comes to helping customers with their computers. Be well - Mike.

Want it done right? Want it done at a VERY affordable price? You know who to bring it to!

I'll take care of 'ya and you'll never pay an arm & a leg for computer services at my service. Be well - Mike.

Prices for my services start at $35.00 & Up.
No hidden fees. Never any surprise charges. The price I quote you is the price you will pay. A couple of changes have been implemented to circumvent any confusion and better serve my customers.

1) All quotes will be provided in writing to the customer prior to services beginning. This will include all special conditions agreed to by the customer and myself.

2) Donating an un-used/old computer to me for any service discount or exchange for a service, either in whole or partial must be verbally expressed by the customer if they expect a discount or exchange for service and agreed upon by me prior to any service being provided. This condition will be denoted in writing between my service & the customer in the service quote.

Be well - Mike.

"Hey Mike, my computer is doing stuff that's weird. I think I may have a virus." Not an infection but multiple infections! Computers today are susceptible to infections from legitimate websites, emails, ads, links and other avenues. Many users do not even know they are infected at the moment when they get one. The majority of computer owners have at least one infection and do not even know it. Think you have an infection? Need help to find out of you have any? Drop your computer off and I will deep scan it for you for only $25.00 and if you do have an infection (or several) I'll remove it and repair your system for only $45.00 total.

So, if you have an infection(s) all you'll pay is $45.00 to remove it.
If you do not have any infections, you only pay $25.00 for my deep scan.

Just remember, although someone might want to think "ah I ain't got no stupid infection", then they wake up and discover their bank account has been drained, and all of their passwords no longer work. An account for a credit card has been created in their name. Then they think back and recall clicking on an email they didn't recognize but were curious about it. Well, that email they clicked on contained a link to a keylogger which installed itself in their computer that recorded every key they typed which included their bank account login, password for that account and all of their credit card login information.

So twenty-five bucks to ensure YOU aren't infected isn't that expensive now is it?! And if you are, $45.00 is cheap compared to the other side of that infection coin.

Be well - Mike.

MacBook data transfer and setup. Plus a few tweaks to ensure it is fast and works better than out of the box!

I got my customer's ASUS game laptop upgraded. Higher capacity RAM and higher capacity SSD plus an additional SSD installed. I placed shortcuts to each SSD on his desktop to make access easier. Customer was very happy and I appreciate his repeat business for sure. Be well - Mike.

Wish you had all of your computer settings in one place? Now you can. Right click on an empty space on your desktop and hover your mouse over "New" then select "Folder". In the space under the new folder copy & paste the following in that space: GodMode.{ED7BA470-8E54-465E-825C-99712043E01C} Copy that just as I have posted it starting at G ending at }. Now you have what is called God Mode where all of your settings are in that folder. Below is a screenshot of part of that folder. Now you'll have every setting option in one place rather than having to search for it.

Windows God Mode originated in Windows Vista in 2007 for those of you who might be wondering. If you like my tip PLEASE follow, Like and share. Enjoy. Be well Mike.
