Computer Services



1: Complete Operating System Reinstalls - $124.95 - for most cases. This includes loading the
operating system and any provided software by the customer, all windows updates, virus
protection and fire walls if needed and cleaning of your computer inside and out. This also
includes any help with software that may be needed that you do not currently have.



2: Data Backup - $29.95 - This includes backing up all data on the hard drive that is not
potentially virus infected, to be kept as a backup or to be reloaded after a complete reinstall of
the operating system.



3: Basic Maintenance Package - $49.95 - This package includes a total clean up of your
computer inside and out, scanning the computer for viruses, adware, spyware, performing
windows updates if needed and any recommendations to what your computer might need to
perform better and faster.



4: Imaging - Prices vary depending on hard drive capacity and data included - $39.95 in most
cases for 40GB or less used space on your hard drive - After a complete reinstall of the
operating system we can build an image of your computer to be stored on our data storage
system which can speed up your rebuild time in the future if your computer crashes or if the hard
drives fails. This stored image will allow us to completely reload your computer in just a matter
of minutes, unlike the 3 - 6 hours that it would normally take for a complete normal reload.

Imaging is also useful if you like the way your computer is running now and would like to have a
total backup in case of hard drive failure or virus infection.

Images are stored for 12 months at a time unless other arrangements are made before your
image date expires. Discounts are available for customers with images stored with PC DREAMS
and would like to re-image again to keep a current image on hand with us, talk to one of our
techs today for more information on our imaging process and data storage services.



5: Clean Up Package - $19.95 - This is a basic cleanup package where we open up your
computer and clean out all of the dirt and dust that will potentially damage your computer and
render it useless.
