If you have a technical problem with your computer, and need help, your best bet is to call your manufacturer's a technical support line. In many cases, technical support is part of the package when you first buy your computer.
If, for some reason, you can use the desktop services of your computer manufacturers, here are a few free help desk sites online. Tech Support Guy claims it is the # 1 support site on the web and can be found at http://www.helponthe.net.
The Tech Support Guy desk help site provides free support to Microsoft Windows 95, 98, NT, ME, 2000, XP and Linux users. This site is free because it is fully run by volunteers and is paid for by donations. Donations are requested but are not required to use this site.
The way this site works is that you should first search for the topic of your problem. If you do not find it, you can post your technical issue on one of the pages of the Tech Support Guy forum, where other site users will try and help you.
One great feature of this site is that it has a wide field of questions from previous users, so you will probably get an answer to your technical problem very quickly. One negative aspect of this site is that it is up to you to find the answer to your technical problem.
No one representing customer service support can take you to your technical issue at this help desk. 5 S tar technical services can be found on the web at http://www.5starsupport.com.
This help desk provides support for users of Windows, Linux, Internet Explorer, Outlook Express, Netscape, Windows Messenger, AOL, Troubleshooting Network, Microsoft Office Products.
Just submit your technical issue to a web form that will be emailed to a few volunteers representing technical support and wait to receive your response again. You can get a few responses from different representatives, and each solution may be different. You can email to a representative if you are unable to resolve your technical problem satisfactorily.
For people who are looking for a quick solution, there is a way you can call a computer support specialist, and they can talk to you about the solution to your technical problem.
There is a small fee for this service, but it can also be purchased annually, monthly or for each event. Another 5-star service is for free PC tutorials on topics such as Windows XP Clean Up, Install Home Network, Network Card Setup and Hard Drive Partition. Suggested Adjustments can be found at http://www.suggestafix.com.
This site is also run by volunteers but is a free service. It is based on the forum, and you need to take the time to scroll through the post to find something similar to your problem. However, in the toolbar, virus information and courses are also available as quick options.
The best thing about the forums is that you will usually find good quality answers to your technical or regular computer questions. There are a few dedicated people who seem to be asking a lot of questions, so it depends on the time and day; your answers may vary greatly.
