"I was totally awestruck by Mike's professionalism, knowledge and honesty. He was able to reassure me that my used computer is in tip top shape and has more memory then I even imagined. He was able to remotely get into my computer to check it out since he is in Arizona and I am in Oklahoma. Normally I would not have allowed this-but thanks to Mikes many tremendous reviews and A Grade I trusted him and do not regret it. In my opinion he deserves an A++! It's been 20 years since I have owned a desktop computer and I'm obviously not tech savvy! Mike did not take advantage of that and was even kind enough to share some info with me free of charge. I have already opened a file (in my filing account with his name on it)! I am making a list of things for him to help me with and will definitely be back in touch with him. I highly recommend Mike's company to anyone looking for an honest, reputable computer repair person."

"I’d give Joe Slater 10 stars if I could. Joe called to discuss my computer issues and said he was pretty sure he could help. He followed up with an estimate. Once I approved and the appt was set he showed up on time. Took his shoes off at the door! Joe changed my wi-fi password and then updated my MacPro laptop, iPhone, iPad, Echo, Amazon Fire, Directv and all the apps (Netflix, Prime,etc), and my work computer! Then he went to work getting my printer to print! Joe is wicked smart with his degree in software engineering and a minor in cyber security. Plus he is very friendly, super easy to talk to, answered all my questions as he worked. My experience was awesome! Highly recommend Joe Slater for any level of computer hardware or software issues."

"Bob from All American Solutions spent several hours working on my laptop and desktop computers for slow speed issues. They were both very close to being non-usable. Now both computers are working like new! I was charged $99 for each computer, which is an outstanding price for how long this project took. Bob is a wonderful person to work with and so generous with his time. I learned a lot through this experience and wouldn't hesitate to use All American Solutions in the future."

Computer Repair questions, answered by experts

Common problems include clogged filters, low water pressure, and malfunctioning valves. Regular maintenance prevents many issues.

Aim for a uniform, smooth joint to ensure a good electrical connection. If it looks crusty and uneven, your iron tip might be dirty or the joint isn’t hot enough. To keep the iron tip clean, wipe the tip with a damp sponge or brass tip cleaner when you spot black spots or rust to remove any oxidation and flux residue. Tinning the tip surface with a small amount of solder offers a layer of additional protection.
