How to Handle a Virus

How to handle a virus - Computer RepairNot many people know how to handle a virus. One of the most frustrating things about owning a computer is not knowing what to do when something goes wrong. And to make matters worse, these problems always seem to happen when you’re working on a major paper or when you just finished filing away all your taxes.

One of the worst things that can happen to any PC owner, no matter if it’s a Sony, Toshiba, Compaq, Dell, is the Blue Screen error. It’s also known as the “Blue Screen of Death” amongst its victims.  This error can be caused by device driver problems, programming errors, page faults, or a variety of other errors.

This type of error and many others can cause the system to become unbootable. It renders your hard drive inaccessible and the only way to access data is to use a backup file to restore the data.  The first thing to do is restart your computer.  Sometimes that will fix the problem. If that doesn’t fix it, you may have to optimize your system by upgrading to a new driver, but that can cost a pretty penny.

Regardless of whether or not you upgrade your driver, you should scan your computer for viruses and malware, especially if you download a large amount of files. If no viruses are detected, try to figure out if a specific file or application is causing the error.  If you find that a specific file or application is causing the error, uninstall it.  If you can’t pinpoint any specific file and the problem persists, it’s time to consult an IT professionals.
