I have enough computer experience that I usually can hack my way thru a problem. Sometimes we learn the hard way, but that is the way the ball bounces. I would have paid 10 times the money that the following service is asking to have had good help in recovering a NT machine a few years ago.
LiveRepair offers only online support, but technicians are standing by 24
hours a day, 7 days a week to help. The techs will handle problems related
to PCs of any age, starting with Windows 95 up to Windows XP. Linux is also
supported; Mac systems are not. For $99 a year–regardless of your vendor
brand. The flat fee entitles you to unlimited help for hardware and software problems (including peripherals) and how-to questions. The company also
provides an emergency disk to save your PC after the hard drive has failed.
