Check out this picture of a laptop that was actually recovered from a house fire.
You are going to find this hard to believe, but the computer repair tech that worked on this laptop was actually able to retrieve all of the data off the hard drive. Not everyone would have been so lucky.
At CTG we are often asked if anything can be salvaged from a severely damaged laptop. And the answer is, each scenario can be different. You might be able to salvage a part off of a recently damaged laptop, but in the end what will probably matter most is whether your data can be saved.
We depend on our computers to keep all of our memories, taxes, personal documents, work documents, notes, calendars, emails, family weekend gatherings, weddings, videos, movie collections, just about everything we do in today’s fast moving technology world.
If your laptop was accidentally dropped, in an unfortunate house fire, stolen, or the hard drive crashes repeatedly, what would you do without your data? Starting from scratch can be pretty scary.
This is why CTG always recommends that you back up your data and computers regularly, and if you need assistance please Call That Girl today so we can assist.
Call us to schedule an appointment for a “cost efficient” 30 minute session to insure your hard drive is backed up daily, weekly, or monthly. After all, your “stuff” is very important to us.
If your laptop is damaged severely, it can still be recycled. Please visit http://www.ecyclingcentral.com to find a location convenient for you where you can drop off any laptop or other device. Typically the charge for dropping off a laptop is around $20, but well worth the good karma.

Ah, this is a common problem with many our clients.
Does this happen to you? You’re typing like a mad person and all of a sudden you see your mouse/cursor move to another spot on your screen. And you’ve noticed for awhile now.
This is a common problem with laptop users and it actually has a medical term associated with it.
Smallhandwristlaptoptouchpad Disorder, otherwise known as SHLTP.
Ok, that’s a joke.
What is really happening is that your wrists or hands are touching the “touchpad” on the laptop ,the little square soft area under your space bar. This is a hardware piece of your laptop that you can use as a mouse instead of attaching a mouse. Not everyone knows this but if you touch it while you’re typing, the cursor/mouse will move on you.
The people having most of the problems with this are women with smaller hands. Some of the touchpads on laptops are wider or more delicate to the touch so you may not even see this problem.
You can disable this function or just keep aware of this and maybe you can avoid touching the touchpad.
If you want help with disabling this feature, Call That Girl today and we can remote in your computer and disable it for you.
