Fees
If the computer is dropped off to me, and the problem is a common one listed below, I will bill you based on this
schedule. If I am working on-site, an hourly rate applies instead of this menu-based fee schedule.
Diagnostics Fee - $75 (to determine the soundness of the hardware/determine whether or not it's worth it to proceed).
Virus / Trojan Removal - $100-150 (depending on severity of infection) (click HERE to see what Geek Squad charges).
Data Backup - $75 (for 10 gigabytes) (Best Buy will add $100 to do 9 gigabytes).
Data Recovery - $175+ (Geek Squad rates HERE, they start at $250 and go to $1600+).
Operating System installation - $150 (Windows discs/license not included, will include major Windows patching, and basic driver installation).
Software Program installation - $25-50 (software not included. This would be for installing Microsoft Office, for instance).
Installing Hardware (upgrade) - $20-40 (hardware not included. This would be for adding a hard drive or upgrading your memory or "RAM").
