1317171 2012-12-08 09:53:00 Clive wilson can be expensive and charge you for just coming in and saying they cant fix it but say they need to come in again so they can keep trying. Grass Roots IT is quite a good place. thet moved from behind the old Vodafone to mercy st.

I know this was aimed at pctek but i thought i might chip in too ;)

1317172 2012-12-08 11:51:00 Thanks for that.
She's an old customer that has recently moved back down that way and is not very computer literate. I had put Teamviewer on her laptop but she can't find it and I'm not interested in trying to talk her through things.

1317173 2012-12-08 18:11:00 Gore......um.
This guy:
pressf1.pcworld.co.nz

He isn't in Gore though.

Clive Wilsons aren't really interested in home users. The one round the corner (Custom Computers) has no idea what he's doing.

There's Hunt Computers in Invercargill, young guy there knows what he'd doing.

There's also:
www.southernit.co.nz

But I sent an ex-customer there once. She wanted a malware check and a case fan. He wanted to do totally different stuff to the PC and charged her a whacking great fee to come retrieve it after she said no.

Sounds to me like software(may be a virus) but as she is so computer illiterate it is hard to tell.
She is going to try Hunt computers and then Grass RootsIT. She had heard enough about Clive Wilson not to go there.
