Well this week has gone absolutely bananas, despite the lovely weather we have been having lately. The #Leamington workshop has been on overdrive and last Thursday and Friday was particularly busy. On Thursday Morning we were called to Ten Business Environments in #Kenilworth based at Camden House, to sort out some issues with various #Outlook Accounts, which appeared to be a bit muddled in both type IMAP / POP and various passwords which needed resetting. All is well now though, which is good as they are moving the company to Portsmouth in a few weeks. They have asked us to maintain their #Website though. Whilst we were there the lovely Maureen in the workshop managed to book in 3 repairs, so we had to attend to those too on our return. Friday was an interesting day. First of all we were called to Roofing Restoration in Henley in Arden. They have a 4 PC and File Server based network, using #Windows #7 #Home #Premium. The only problem is that their #Backup using #Cobian Gravity V11.0 does not work anymore. #Cobian has a nasty habit of stopping for no apparent reason after about two months. They use Cobian to back up to the #file #server situated in an upstairs office and mapped as a Z:\ drive, with its own name and IP address etc. Had they been using #Windows #7 #Professional instead, they would be able to use the built in #Windows #Backup system to perform their backups without any need for additional software at all. Also on Thursday about ten minutes before we were due to leave for the day, a cutomer came in from Powershift, a #Software #Development house based in #Leamington #Spa, looking for just a PC, with a decent graphics card. He paid for it there and then and we pulled out all the stops and had it delivered for him in #Balsall #Common the next day. He said he needed it for Tuesday at the latest as they had a new member of staff starting work with them. He went on to say that as we went above and beyond for him to get it sorted quickly, they will use us for their hardware requirements in future. This is a great compliment for #Computer #Solutions and a lovely accolade too ! Mr Matthews also stopped by to pay for his new White Cased PC. We have now built this and will deliver is over the weekend.
