Speed Up Your Computer

Does your computer take forever to startup?

Did it used to start much faster when it was new?

Before you assume that it is outdated and needs to be replaced, let a Data Doctors Performance Specialist perform a FREE Performance Checkup, While You Wait!

You can speed up most computers by cleaning them up or adding additional RAM (Random Access Memory) but you want to make sure you choose the right option.

If you want to see if your computer is being slowed by excess processes running in the background, try this quick test (Windows XP or 2000 only):

• Press Ctrl-Alt-Del to launch the Windows Task Manager
• Look at the bottom left-hand corner for the number of Processes running

The lower the number, the more resources Windows has to execute your desired commands.

If The Number Is More Then 35-40 On A Desktop Computer Or 40-45 On A Laptop Computer, You May Need To Have Your System Examined To Determine If The Excess Processes Are Malicious Hidden Programs Or Unnecessary Items That Are Dragging Down Your Computer's Performance.

These excess processes could include:

• Hidden Spyware And Adware Programs
• Silent Identity Stealing Trojans
• Viruses and Self Spreading Worms
• Unneeded Programs
• Unneeded Auto-Launchers
• Excess Printer Drivers
• Excess Digital Camera Programs
• Excess Programs Loading at Startup

Let the Experts at Data Doctors evaluate the best course to take to increase the speed of your computer! Contact the Data Doctors location nearest you to schedule your Free Computer Checkup, while you wait!

Testimonials

My computer crashed after about 6 months of having it. I called COMPAQ and they said to do a recovery process. After trying that and it not working, they wanted me to format my hard drive. I had priceless pictures of my daughter on my computer that I was not willing to lose. I called Data Doctors after learning of them through someone my husband plays hockey with. I spoke with Sam and he said to bring my computer in the next day. I took it to 67th and Deer Valley the next day and Sam checked me in and explained the charges. He made me feel alot more relaxed and confindent in that, he would be able to recover my pictures. When Sam called and said he had my pictures recovered, I was so FREAKIN HAPPY!!! It was a hard lesson to learn, not backing up my files, but Sam helped and was professional the whole time. I would have paid any amount to recover my pictures and believe me, I will always remember Sam. I would have lost my daughters first Christmas and so many other firsts. I will definatley keep Data Doctors in my phone book!!! THANK YOU SAM AND DATA DOCTORS!! YOU GAVE ME A GREAT MOTHERS DAY PRESENT!!!!!

Thank you for helping us battle the hoards of viruses out there! Your email messages on what's new and infecting us are helpful. We contracted the recent SASSER worm and your direction to 'fix' it worked perfectly.

Thanks again!!
