"Silver Surfers” now outnumber young
computer users. For them, it is particularly
important that their
computers work without problems. But what
happens when the computer
becomes increasingly slower, programs no
longer work correctly or the PC

In these cases, it is not always necessary
to get expensive advice from
hotlines or PC emergency services, or to ask

get slow computers back on
their feet, administer first aid in the case
of certain problems, and
additionally help to keep the PC in a better
condition in the long run.
