headache over computer problems

It is something that anyone who works on a computer dreads the most. You’re busy working along when all of a sudden, your screen freezes. Did you lose all your work? More importantly, will it come back? There is literally nothing like the panic that washes over you when a computer screen freezes and all you see is a blue screen. Did you know that your ultimate computer dread has a name? It does. That blue screen with a list of computer instructions and information is called the Blue Screen of Death. This occurs when Windows crashes or locks.

Despite what you think at the time, the reason for this Windows screen is to tell you the reason for the error and to calm you down. As you read the information shown, the error you experienced will be in all capital letters at the top. It will help you or a computer repair technician find the information you need to fix the problem. Also, Windows will take anything it’s holding in system memory and put it in a file and saves it on your hard drive.

The error and memory file will be researched to find the cause of the system stop and to help repair it. If you experience a Blue Screen of Death and aren’t sure how to fix it yourself, hopefully you have a contracted an IT Service that will be able to get you back up and running in no time.

Malware and Virus Protection|Managed IT Services Corona CA

Posted on by admin

Since everything revolves around the internet, it is important that we make sure to protect ourselves. It is important to know the difference between the things harming your computer. A big threat – malware. The term “malware” refers to any type of malicious software that’s designed to infect your computer or mobile device, including a computer virus and is designed to specifically harm and infect host systems. Managed IT Services can continually help protect your businesses network and computer systems.

Here are some things you have probably heard of, now what they mean.

Virus. This is a contagious program that attaches itself to another piece of software, and then progresses to reproduce itself when the software is running.

Adware. Adware is the least dangerous and most profitable malware. It displays ads on your computer.

Spyware. This is a software that spies on you by tracking your internet activity in order to send adware back to your machine.

Worms. This is a program that replicates itself and destroys data and files on your computer. Worms are designed to “eat” the system operating files and data till the drive is completely empty.

Trojan horse. The most dangerous, Trojans are designed to discover your financial information and take over your computers system resources.

Ransomware. If you see a screen that warns you that you have been locked out of your computer until you pay for your cybercrimes, you have ransomware. Even if you do pay to unlock your system, you are not free from of it locking you out again.

Posted on by admin

Which Type of Wireless Network is Right for my Business? | Prescott, AZ

Posted on by admin

Its easy to believe that all wireless network carriers are the same. After all, they all provide internet to your enterprise, right? Well, unfortunately you could be contacted with a carrier that doesn’t meet the needs of your growing enterprise. Each system has been designed to accommodate a consistent connection for your business in different ways.

At Up and Running Computer Solutions, we help you choose the best wireless network for you, and help you manage the one you choose. You can choose to incorporate either centralized development, converged development and cloud-based development into your business operations. Here is a breakdown of the differences between the wireless options.

Centralized Deployment. A great option for the business owner whose enterprise is composed of a cluster of proximal buildings or networks. This system is a centralized operation, meaning updates are easier and it can handle advanced wireless functionality.

Converged Deployment. This system consists of an access switch and suits the business with branch offices. A converged deployment wireless option will increase wireless consistency and will connect wireless to wired devices.

Cloud-based Deployment. Using a dashboard to manage all of the devices on a network, an enterprise with remote workers may seek this option. A third party space where operations can be managed and accessible from anywhere certainly has its perks.

Whatever the needs of your business, when you work with the professionals at Up and Running Computer Solutions, you can feel confident that your wireless connection is right for you. Our experienced team will work with you to decide on a wireless option, install and maintain the system so you can focus on growing your business.
