Practical help from a local computer guy

What I Do.

Computer and technology help for individuals, families, home offices, and small businesses. I offer straightforward advice without unnecessary equipment or upgrades.

Support is available by appointment for individual problems and projects.

Start with what you need

A sensible solution comes first.

You do not need to know the technical terms or arrive with a list of parts. Tell me what you want to accomplish, what is not working, and roughly what you want to spend.

I’ll help you understand the options and find an approach that makes sense for you.

Custom Computers

I build custom desktop computers around what you need and what you want to spend. Whether the computer is for gaming, work, entertainment, or everyday use, each part is selected with the whole system in mind.

Home and everyday computers

Upgrades & Troubleshooting

If your computer is slow, something has stopped working, or you want to upgrade it, I can help diagnose the problem and explain your options before doing additional work.

Tell me what is happening and which computer you have, and I’ll let you know whether it is a job I can help with.

PC repairs and component replacement
RAM and storage upgrades, including SSDs
Graphics card upgrades
Windows installation and configuration

PC & Laptop Setup

A new computer is not always ready to use the way you need it straight out of the box. I can handle Windows updates, software, accounts, browser setup, and unwanted preinstalled apps so you can start using it comfortably.

You do not have to purchase a computer from KPL Custom Computers to have me help set it up.

I review your existing equipment before recommending changes, with clear advice and costs agreed before additional work.

Remote Computer Support

Many computer problems do not require an in-person visit. I offer remote Windows troubleshooting and basic Mac help using AnyDesk. Contact me about your issue so I can confirm whether I can help.

You authorize the connection, see what I am doing on your screen, and remain in control of the session.

Still wondering?

Don’t see what you need?

Computer and technology problems do not always fit neatly into a category. If you are not sure whether something is a service I provide, just ask. Tell me what you are trying to do or what is not working, and I’ll let you know if it is something I can help with.
