new computer installation

The Do-It-Yourself Approach

UPS just delivered your new computer to your door, or you just got home from Best Buy or Staples with a new computer. Now what?

You unpack it, then struggle with the cables and finally get everything plugged in--hopefully it powers up.

Now, you try to get the Internet working. Hmmm...it won't connect--better spend an hour on the phone with your ISP. OK, the Internet works--now you've got to configure your email. With another call to tech support, you finally get it working--but wait...where are all your old messages, where are the hundreds of names in your address book? All gone!

Next you'll install your application programs--and somehow figure out how to transfer data from your old computer.

Setting up your peripherals--the printer, scanner, digital camera, etc. is the next step. Does everything work? Maybe, maybe not.

OK, now it's a week later and everything more or less works. Wait, what was THAT?! A pop-up, and the Internet is already starting to slow down. You DID properly configure your firewall, anti-virus, and anti-spyware software and install all Windows updates and patches didn't you?

Well, you can always run the system restore disk and do EVERYTHING AGAIN!
