Hello and welcome to AVmechanic.
Before we begin, I thought i would tell you a little bit as to why I have set this site up and what my goals are.
Being as i have worked in Tech support now for over 10 years

, also helping out friends and family with computer problems, I realised that starting this site could benefit many users who maybe are new to computing.
With this in mind AVmechanic was born, everything you see here and everyone who helps out does so in there spare time, free of charge.
You will never have to pay anything to get support on AVmechanic.
AVmechanic is composed of different sections, each with their own purpose. I will provide brief descriptions of the various sections and what they are for.
