We work right across the area, including:
Signs it's time to book
- The computer takes noticeably longer to start than it used to
- The fan runs loudly even when you are only reading email
- Updates have been failing or asking to restart for a long while
Before we arrive
- Details of how you back up, such as an external drive or cloud service
