time, one of the biggest fears we have is when we
push the power button and nothing happens.

The computer will not start up and just sits
there, or worse it displays an error message
stating the BIOS cannot find a bootable device.

wrong and the computer needs to be repaired.

be asked to include the user name and password to
log into the computer.

While most repair services are trustworthy, there
are still other risks you may or may not have
been told about that could occur during the
repair process.

It is not uncommon to ship off the computer and
get it back, fixed, but all of your data is gone
because they had to install a new hard drive or
reinstall the operating system on the original
drive to get the computer working.

Then there is the risk of accidentally deleting
files when the repair technician is not entirely
sure what is wrong.

The last thing you really want after getting your
computer fixed is booting it up to discover you
lost all of your files and data.

Prior to boxing up the computer and shipping it
off for repair, there are a few different things
you can do to ensure you data does not get erased.

1. Always plan for the worst case scenario.Get
into the habit of making regular daily backups of
your files and data to an external source, such
as the Cloud, an external drive, or other type of
storage medium.

2. Password protect sensitive folders and files.
You can password protect any of the files and
data on the computer to keep them secure, such as
tax forms, profit and loss statements, credit
card statements, or any other proprietary data
you want to protect.

3. Use a hard drive data recovery service. If
you want to get your data and files off the hard
drive before shipping it off, this is your best
option.

Not only will you have a backup of your data and
files, but you also do not have to worry about it
being accidentally erased.

In cases, where the problem is related to the
actual hard drive and not some other issue, then
a data recovery service would be highly
recommended, since the computer repair service
will end up replacing the hard drive with a new
one.
