Ben said he is a transplant from New York City who worked in the corporate world with computers for twenty years before moving to Harnett County for the peace and quiet.
“The ball is passed around in large companies. That doesn’t happen here. I get to know my customers and am 100 percent accountable from start to finish,” Ben said.
Ben offered advice on computer care.
It is okay to leave it on overnight for long-running tasks, like video edits, otherwise shut it down when not in use.
As long as the computer boots from an SSD, it should take less than a minute to turn on or off. Modern versions of Windows need an SSD to run efficiently. Ben cans upgrade computers from HDD to SSD starting around $120.
“It is the most tangible upgrade someone can do to speed up their PC,” Ben said.
About antivirus, Ben said the Windows Defender does its job and third-party antivirus software is not needed.
The deadline to upgrade from Windows 10 to Windows 11 is less than 3 months away, which is Oct. 14th.
“Without Windows 11, you will not receive updates, including security updates. I can help with competently updating to make it fairly seamless,” Ben said.
Make an appointment, bring desktop only, unless you have a laptop in which case you will also need to bring the charger.
Weekdays 8 a.m. to 6:30 p.m.
Saturdays 10 a.m. to 2 p.m.
The hours are the same for remote support or house call services.
Call Ben’s Computer Sales & Service LLC at 919-480-1887 for sales or service.
