How to Get a Free PC Health Check from Geek Squad

Technology makes our lives a lot better and easier.  It’s also becoming a lot less expensive.  That means that nearly every home today has multiple PC’s, printers, and high speed Internet. 

The benefits are clear.  We now bank and shop online, download movies and music, and research anything we want to know on the Internet.  Our kids do their homework online and when work is done, we settle in together to watch a movie or grab a TV show from an online service.

It’s all wonderful… until it all comes to a grinding halt because something’s not working.

That’s the unfortunate thing about technology.  It does so much for us that we become dependent on it.  But, it’s also complicated and when it doesn’t work, it’s not always easy to figure out why.  Even minor problems like a printer not printing can be a huge frustration.

Even more concerning is data security.  Because we now do so much shopping and banking online, protecting our personal data is critical, and most people simply don’t know if they have adequate protection until it’s too late.

When technology stops working properly, many people simply don’t have the time or know what to do.  We may try to fix the problem ourselves and, if that doesn’t work, we have to find someone to come and fix the problem for us.  It can end up taking time and money to get relatively minor problems resolved.  It may only take a technician a few seconds to diagnose and fix a computer problem, but they still have to charge for coming to your home.

Fortunately, there is an online tech support service from consumer electronics retailer Best Buy that solves this frustrating conundrum once and for all.  It’s aptly named Geek Squad Tech Support, and it leverages the huge reach of Geek Squad and the Best Buy network to offer consumers a way to look after all of their home electronics service needs.

Geek Squad is able to solve most any problem without having to send somebody to your home and without you having to bring any of your equipment to them.

Even better, they are currently offering consumers a completely free PC Health Check of your system.

Here’s how it works

You simply click through to their site and initiate an online chat with a service agent. They’ll get a quick understanding of your system and then securely connect to your PC or other connected device.  Then, they will analyze your problems and provide an estimate for what it will take to get your computer running perfectly, and to keep it that way.

The free analysis includes a review of your anti-spyware and anti-virus protection, a test of your hardware and software associated for proper functionality and recommendations, including a cost estimate for repairs or upgrades to help you achieve peak performance.

And, what’s also great about Geek Squad is that most services including virus removal, full diagnostics, operating system and software installation and repairs, password resets, hardware and memory installation, and more can be done right away, without the need to take your equipment anywhere or wait at home for a technician.

And, their prices are great.  In addition to low, one-time fees to get specific problems fixed, Geek Squad also offers low-cost plans that provide ongoing support online and over the phone 7 days a week, 24 hours a day, 365 days a year.

No matter where you bought your computer or other electronic devices, Geek Squad Tech Support is available to you.  Agents are also trained in issues for TV’s, video, smart phones and tablets, GPS devices, audio and iPods, gaming, and cameras.

Geek Squad is like having your own Information Technology Department on call to keep all your gadgets running perfectly every hour of the day, every day of the year.

You’ve spent a lot on your technology and you rely on it for a lot. Geek Squad makes sure you’re never stuck without it again.
