Bob Habjaniac handled the contact and did the work and was very patient and professional with me throughout the process, explaining what he was doing and why at each step. And, of course, the computer worked when I got it back! Looks like we have a good working computer and were not charged for the re-visit. Very nice of them

I was very pleased with the quick turnaround, expertise and professionalism that Bob Habjanic displayed. He explained exactly what they did and why and kept me informed about any issues. I am thinking about adding a wireless laptop and would definitely get Bob / Creative Computers to set this up for me. Once again, thanks to Angie's List for helping me to quickly identify a very reliable vendor who I would use again.
Description of Work: Bob Habjanic and his technicians ran diagnostics on my hard drive and checked some problems I was having with my video card and monitor. They hepled ''clean up'' my computer and loaded several original software programs for me including some anti-virus protection.

These guys were great. Lots of patience in explaining what they found, what they were doing, and why they were doing it. They provided good demonstrations of how the new system worked and addressed our concerns. They provided guidance as to how to avoid similar problems in the future. We feel that they did an excellent job. The computer is working fine now, and performs much faster with no hang-ups, shut-downs, or similar evidences of viruses. We were very pleased and highly recommend this firm. And the discount on labor paid for our Angie's List subscription for 6 months! Without Angie's List, our job of finding a decent company for this computer repair job would have been like doing it blindfolded. Angie's List removed the blindfold for us.
Description of Work: Even with what we thought was excellent anti-virus protection, our computer had developed problems indicative of a virus. We took it to Creative Computers where they located 7 viruses. They removed the viruses, installed an OS upgrade to XP Pro, and re-installed other relevant programs. (We had done extensive back-up.)

Bob was very helpful and gave a detailed explanation of what he did and why. He was very thorough in searching for and correcting the problems we were having with both computers. I feel that the cost of the repairs was fair considering all that needed to be done to get the computers up and running again.
Description of Work: Removed virus-infected files; re-installed Windows XP Home; installed antivirus program and ad-aware on one computer. On another computer, removed spyware. Installed Power DVD and Nero Express6. Set up email and installed Windows XP Home as well as Linksys Wireless G Network Card.

Took computer in Friday morning and it was ready Monday afternoon. I picked it up Tuesday morning and Bob spent time with me showing me what he had done, how he arranged folders, where I could find my recovered data, etc. He moved my email into the proper directories so it was easy to find. Very good job. I would use them again.

BOB, WHO DID THE WORK, KNOWS EVERYTHING THERE IS TO KNOW ABOUT COMPUTERS. SINCE I KNOW NOTHING ABOUT THEM, I FELT THAT I WAS IN VERY GOOD HANDS. OUR COMPUTER IS BACK ONLINE, AND WORKING MORE EFFICIENTLY THAN EVER, THANKS TO BOB. MY ONLY COMPLAINT WOULD BE THE PRICE, BUT WHEN I WAS PRICING COMPUTER REPAIR COMPANIES, THEY ALL SEEMED TO BE HIGH. I WOULD IMAGINE IT IS BECAUSE OF THE COMPLEXITIES OF THE WORK.

ALTHOUGH MY HUSBAND IS NOT AS UNHAPPY AS I, I AM ENTIRELY DISAPPOINTED IN THIS COMPANY. THE ''REFURBISHED'' COMPUTER FAILED IN 10 MONTHS. THEY GAVE US A NEW PROCESSOR AND HARD DRIVE AND 4 DAYS LATER IT FAILED. I HAVE HAD MANY COMPUTERS BUILT FROM SCRATCH, BUT I'VE NEVER HAD THIS SORT OF PROBLEM IN COMPLETE SYSTEM FAILURE BEFORE. THEY ARE NICE, BUT SOMEWHAT DEFENSIVE IN RESPONSE TO OUR COMPLAINTS. I DO NOT RECOMMEND THEM IN ANY WAY, SHAPE OR FORM. CHEAP, AND YOU GET WHAT YOU PAY FOR.
Description of Work: WE BOUGHT A REFURBISHED COMPUTER FROM THEM LAST YEAR. AFTER IT FAILED, WE HAD A PROCESSOR AND HARD DRIVE INSTALLED.

THEY KEPT US UP TO DATE ON WHAT THEY WERE DOING. IT INVOLVED MANY PHONE CALLS AND THEIR COMMUNICATION WAS VERY GOOD. SO FAR IT SEEMS TO BE WORKING VERY WELL. ALTHOUGH IT DID COST MORE THAN WE WERE EXPECTING. I HAVE NO WAY TO COMPARE THE COST. THEY REALLY WORKED HARD TO CLEAN IT UP COMBINED THAT WITH THEIR COMMUNICATION AND I FEEL IT JUSTIFIED THE COST.
Description of Work: OUR COMPUTER WAS RUNNING VERY SLOW. IT WAS WORKED ON AT MY HOME AND A PART WAS TAKEN BACK TO THE SHOP. JOSE FOUND IT WAS JAMMED WITH SPAM AND SPY WARE, THEY ADDED SECURITY.
