I'm David, the owner of Rittenhouse Computer Services. We provide on-site computer repair in Hinesville and Ft. Stewart, Georgia...as well as the surrounding areas of Liberty and Long Counties (near Savannah).

This is my informal blog where I write about and share information relating to computer repair issues including: security, online privacy, virus removal, software issues, and any other "geek" topics. I refer to this page as "informal" simply because it isn't a site that has anything to sell. All of the information I post here is free...free software...free reviews...free computer articles...and, as time permits, I reply to messages here to provide free suggestions to help with specific issues.

I've been involved in computer-related work for over 20+ years, and have done everything from helping individuals with a single laptop to working for a Fortune 500 corporation maintaining multiple servers and dozens of workstations for the U.S. Army.

I enjoy computer repair because I love the challenge. In this type of work, there are some things computer technicians see over and over again...but occasionally there are those issues which are a mystery to solve...and I enjoy the "hunt." :)

If you have a PC issue that is giving you difficulty, feel free to sign up for a free Multiply page and send me an instant message. My time is extremely limited and I can't promise to give detailed individual replies to every computer issue that I'm messaged about, but I'll do my best to provide free help where I can. To increase your odds of getting a free consultation, make sure to include:

(A) A concise description of the problem including the specific wording of any error messages you observe.
(B) The type of computer and operating system you have.
(C) A brief description of what was happening at the time you first saw the problem.
(D) The name of any software or hardware you installed or removed recently.
(E) A statement that you either agree or disagree with publishing this problem and its solution (minus any personally identifying information) on this blog for others to benefit from.

Please do NOT send any passwords or other personal information.

Best regards,

~~David :)
