Computer & Repair Services

We offer the following computer and repair services:

Computer Lab

There are workstations available for use in the Student Technology Center's (STC) computer lab, consisting of ten PCs and one Mac. Each workstation is loaded with the latest multimedia software and is Internet ready — free of charge. These computers are connected to our printers and allow you to print in black and white or color. These computers do not store any data on them.  If you want to save any documents or files then please be sure to bring a blank CD or USB flash drive. Please see our usage policy regarding the computer lab before you begin any work.

Scanning

The STC offers self-service, full color, flatbed scanning to on-campus residents. This service is offered free of charge. However, you do need to provide your own blank CD or USB flash drive in order to save your work.

CD/DVD Burning

The STC currently has workstations with CD-ROM/DVD-ROM burning capability. CD-ROM/DVD-ROM burning is available to you free of charge to make back-up copies of your software, archive lecture notes, documents, etc. provided you supply your own blank media. The service is offered on a first-come, first-serve basis.

Repairs

STC offers a variety of software repair services. Some of those include basic troubleshooting, hard drive reformat, operating system re-install, virus removal and hard drive data backup. 

We do not offer hardware repair services, although, we can troubleshoot and diagnose hardware problems. We will give you a best guess as to what the problem might be and what you might need to do to resolve the problem.

STC encourages you to determine if your computer is still under manufacturer warranty.  If so, please contact the manufacturer for service as this will usually be free of charge under your warranty as well as to ensure that your computer does not jeopardize its warranty coverage.
