Kevin was out to my house about an hour after I called. He fixed the problem quickly and efficiently. I downgraded slightly on price although I'm not sure he isn't charging standard fees, I think this type of service is too expensive generally.
Description of Work: My internet explorer was fixed when it wouldn't work.

Kevin got here at 1:00pm (right on time), asked me what was going on, and I told him my computer was "gummed up" that I wasn't able to get on it to work this day. He dug into the computer works and removed all the non-workable items and got rid of AVG (which he had to do manually) because it just wouldn't let go, and that took some time.
Description of Work: I had an item on my computer that was recommended by AOL that was called AVG and it was really fowling up my system. Every time I tried to remove it, it would re-initialize itself again so I couldn't get rid of it. Kevin took it out and cleaned up the system and got rid of a lot of junk.

Kevin responded to our call immediately and was on site within two hours. He then worked to resolve the problems and when he left the system was working well.
Description of Work: We were having difficulty getting our new router to respond properly to several wireless devices on our home network . Kevin came out and worked on our system to diagnose and solve several problems, one of which was to install a firmware update and to reset the router. All the problems were resolved and we were very satisfied with his work.

Kevin came and performed the work on my computer quickly and efficiently. I was charged a fair price and appreciate his responsiveness to my computer needs.
Description of Work: Kevin came out to my home at his first opportunity and always arrives either early or on time. I trust him and he is friendly, professional, and easy to talk to and understand when explaining the computer issues that I have at the time. This time when he came to my house, I had a few issues (an error message that made getting on the internet diffcult, my wireless router had not been connected when we switched internet providers from AT&T to Comcast which he connected, and he got my virus protection up and running again) that I needed help with and, as always, he knew how to correct them and explained why they had happened. I use him for all my computer issues and am so glad that I can rely him. I recommend him highly!

We called Nerds on Call to fix our internet connectivity in the house. He explained his pricing and said that we would be charged per hour. If he was there for 10 minutes, we would still be charged the hourly service so we may want to have up to an hour's worth of repair to get more of our money's worth. We thought it was worth cost even if it took a short period of time. Kevin, owner of the business, came on time. He literally took about 5 minutes from the time he walked in the door to fixing the problem. I remembered we had a jack in our house that has NEVER worked in our house so I decided to see if he could fix that problem. He had that figured out in about 40-45 minutes. I have NO question in my mind that he could fix any problem that could arise in our house. He said that the network that was set up in our house (done by a vendor who's not defunct) was done well so he could follow what they did, but that it was probably more complicated than a small business. I will DEFINITELY call Kevin, N*** on Call, in the future for any networking issue we have.
Description of Work: We lost our internet connection in our house. We have a decently complicated network so we were concerned about bringing in someone who didn't have a solid knowledge of networking. We have had previous "network consultants" in the past who were worthless and had no idea what to do. We went on Angie's List and noticed that Nerds on Call is done by the "owner of the company" and had good reviews. We went that route.

It went great...Kevin was here earlier than he expected and was very thorough and professional. I will recommend his company to my friends.
Description of Work: Our computer had been infected with the rogue Cyber Security pop-up. I wasn't able to remove it myself and called Kevin at Nerds On Call. He came today and cleaned up our computer, added a security site and was done in 1 hour. I would highly recommend this company to anyone having similar problems.

I called around 11am and got in touch with Kevin. He ran down the pricing and how he worked and said he had a cancellation for the afternoon so he could get to me today for a house call. He showed up on time and got right to work. He was able to get the computer running much faster and got rid of some long standing problems. He was honest with me when I asked about a particular problem - he said that it would take a lot of his time (my money) to fix a particular boot up problem that is easily "canceled" on start up. He recommended leaving it alone to save money. He suggested an online backup service and removed problem programs and suggested/installed a free virus scan program available from my ISP. He took a few phone calls while he was here and did not charge me for that time. I understand that his business runs essentially via cell phone so I understand that he has to take calls and since I was not charged for that time, I was not bothered.
Description of Work: My wife has a 1 year old laptop that had just recently started running VERY slow. I tried a few things, got frustrated and called in a professional. I did not want to format and re-install windows/office, etc.

Wow. What a great job. Doug was the tech's name. He did not mess around and got right to business and was obviously very skilled. I could hardly keep up with him but was assured he could find the problem and help get me back on track. He was also very personable and explaining to me exactly what he was doing and what needed to be done. He also helped me to get free AOL and installed the virus software that did not cost anything. I am so HAPPY. I highly recommend them and will keep their number handy for any future problems. They really saved the day for me.
Description of Work: My computer was infected with a virus, couldn't access control panel. I also needed a program installed for detecting virus/spy programs. I could not get normal access to my AOL.

We have used Nerds on Call previously (2 other times to first set up a DSL line and network and again to enhance and expand the network) and had had such a wonderful experience. I immediately called Kevin again when my computer had issues. He was able to come out the very next day and quickly and efficiently corrected my computer's issues. The computer no longer shuts down and is much faster! I asked him to help with another unrelated computer issue since he was already there and he was kind enough to walk me through the process so that I could solve it. He is so responsive and dependable as well as very knowledgable. His prices are very competitive and he doesn't charge a travel fee like other companies do. I highly recommend Kevin!!!
Description of Work: Computer kept shutting down due to spyware/virus issues and was also running very slowly.

THE SERVICE I AM GETTING FROM BOTH THE COMPUTER AND VCR/DVD EQUIPMENT IS WORSE NOW THAN BEFORE THEY CAME. I HAVE USED BOTH THE SCANNER WITH THE COMPUTER AND THE DVD WITH THE TELEVISION SET WITHOUT ANY PROBLEMS FOR QUITE SOME TIME. SINCE APPARENTLY BOTH THE SCANNER AND DVD WERE DISABLED AS A RESULT OF THEIR WORK I AM IN WORSE SHAPE NOW THAN I WAS BEFORE THEY CAME.
Description of Work: THEY SAID THEY COULD DO BOTH ''COMPUTER REPAIR AND SERVICES'' AND ''VCR REPAIR''. THE SOUND WAS RESTORED TO THE COMPUTER WITHOUT ANY PARTS BEING REQUIRED. THE SCANNER ATTACHED TO THE COMPUTER, WHICH WAS WORKING FINE BEFORE THEY CAME, HAS NOT WORKED SINCE THEY WERE HERE. WE WERE TRYING TO GET TWO VCRS AND A DVD TO WORK ON A TELEVISION SET. ONE VCR AND THE DVD WERE WORKING BEFORE THEY CAME. SINCE THEY WERE HERE THE VCR THAT WAS NOT WORKING IS WORKING, BUT THE VCR AND DVD THAT WERE WORKING BEFORE THEY CAME HAVE NOT WORKED SINCE THEY WERE HERE.

Response from NERDS ON CALL
THE MEMBER CALLED FOR COMPUTER HELP, AND ALSO MENTIONED THAT HE HAD A PROBLEM SETTING UP A VCR. I TOLD HIM THAT WE WOULD LOOK AT THE VCR AND SEE IF WE COULD HELP THERE TOO. HIS COMPUTER AND "TV/VCR" CONFIGURATION WERE MORE COMPLEX THAN ORDINARY (MULTIPLE DEVICES CONNECTED TOGETHER THROUGH OTHER DEVICES). THE TECHNICIANS HELPED THE BEST THEY COULD UNDER THE CIRCUMSTANCES, SPENT 1.5 AND HOURS AND UNDER THE DIRECTION OF THE MEMBER STOPPED. SUBSEQUENTLY, THE MEMBER CALLED AND WE WERE ABLE TO GET THE SCANNER WORKING AGAIN. WE DO NOT PROVIDE VCR REPAIR AND ONLY INDICATED TO THE MEMBER THAT WE WERE FAMILIAR WITH SETTING UP A VCR AND WOULD LOOK AT IT AND TRY TO HELP. THE OUTCOME OF THIS CALL IS NOT WHAT WE WISHED IT WOULD BE. GIVEN THE OPPORTUNITY TO RETURN AND CORRECT THE ISSUES WE WOULD HAVE GLADLY DONE SO AT NO COST.

NO ONE CALLED ME AS PROMISED TO TELL ME WHAT WAS WRONG WITH MY COMPUTER. AFTER SEVERAL ATTEMPTS ON MY PART TO CONTACT THEM, I FINALLY REACHED THE OWNER, KEVIN, WHO CHEERFULLY TOLD ME HE'D TRIED TO REBOOT MY COMPUTER AND COULDN'T, SO HE HAD DECIDED MY HARD DRIVE WAS FRIED, ALL DATA WAS IRRETRIEVABLY LOST AND I WOULD NEED TO HAVE A NEW HARD DRIVE INSTALLED. I ASKED FOR THE RETURN OF MY COMPUTER SO I COULD SEEK A SECOND OPINION. A FRIEND WHO KNOWS ABOUT COMPUTERS SUBSEQUENTLY RAN A FEW TESTS THAT REVEALED BAD SECTORS ON THE HARD DRIVE, BUT HE WAS ABLE TO RETRIEVE ALL OF MY IMPORTANT DATA BEFORE A NEW HARD DRIVE WAS INSTALLED. THE SERVICE I RECEIVED FROM NERDS ON CALL WAS, NEEDLESS TO SAY, APPALLING.
