Frequently Asked Questions
There are many variations of passages of Lorem Ipsum available, but the majority have suffered alteration in some form, by injected humour, or randomised words which don't look even slightly believable. If you are going to use a passage of Lorem Ipsum, you need to be sure there isn't anything embarrassing hidden in the middle of text. All the Lorem Ipsum generators on the Internet tend to repeat predefined chunks as necessary, making this the first true generator on the Internet. It uses a dictionary of over 200 Latin words, combined with a handful of model sentence structures, to generate Lorem Ipsum which looks reasonable. The generated Lorem Ipsum is therefore always free from repetition, injected humour, or non-characteristic words etc.
Can Dynamic Computer Solutions add extra drops and WiFi coverage without recabling the whole office?
Usually yes. We extend your existing setup with new drops, switches, and access points placed where coverage is weak. You get stronger signal and more connections without tearing out infrastructure that already works.
Can custom software connect to the tools we already use?
Yes. We build software with API integrations that link to the systems you already run, so data flows between them without manual copying. The result fits your workflow instead of forcing you to change how you work.
How do you make sure a new software release does not break?
Every build goes through QA testing before it reaches you. We check functionality, edge cases, and performance, then fix issues early. That way the finished tool works reliably from day one instead of failing in real use.
How much does laptop repair typically cost?
Costs vary depending on the issue, ranging from simple software fixes to full screen replacement work. We always provide a clear written quote after carefully diagnosing your laptop, so you know the exact price before any repair work actually starts.
Is file recovery possible from a computer that will not turn on?
Often yes. A dead computer does not always mean permanently lost data. Our technicians attempt recovery directly from the drive itself, separate from the repair, whenever the internal hardware still allows us safe access to the stored files you need.
Are both PCs and Macs repaired here?
Yes, our team handles Windows desktops, laptops, MacBooks, and iMacs with equal expertise across the board. Each platform requires different tools and its own diagnostic approaches, and our technicians train across both ecosystems for accurate, reliable repair every single time.
How long does virus removal usually take?
Most virus removal jobs finish within just a few hours once our diagnostics confirm the exact infection type currently present. Deeply embedded malware or dangerous ransomware may require additional time to fully clear the system without damaging your personal files.
What is Dynamic Computer Solutions' typical repair time in Chattanooga, Tennessee?
Dynamic Computer Solutions completes most Chattanooga, Tennessee repairs within just one to two business days on average. With 50 years serving the wider region, our team has refined a proven process that keeps every turnaround fast without ever cutting corners.
Can Dynamic Computer Solutions add extra drops and WiFi coverage without recabling the whole office?
Usually yes. We extend your existing setup with new drops, switches, and access points placed where coverage is weak. You get stronger signal and more connections without tearing out infrastructure that already works.
How do you handle power and cooling in a server room?
We plan for both from the start. Proper airflow, cooling, and backup power keep your gear stable under load. We size everything to your equipment, so the room stays cool, protected, and ready for hardware you add later.
What does remote monitoring actually watch on our systems?
We track drive health, updates, backups, security alerts, and performance around the clock. When something drifts toward failure, we see it early and act, so small warnings get fixed before they turn into downtime or lost data.
Can your monitoring work alongside our in house IT staff?
Absolutely. We support your team rather than replace it, handling monitoring, alerts, and heavy lifting so your staff can focus on daily priorities. You decide how much we own and how much stays in house.
Will penetration testing disrupt our live network?
No. We plan tests carefully to avoid interruption, running them safely against your systems without taking services offline. Our goal is to expose weak spots the way an attacker would, never to break your daily operations.
What is the difference between a vulnerability scan and a full penetration test?
A scan lists known weak spots automatically. A penetration test goes further, with our team actively probing those weaknesses to see what a real attacker could reach. You get proof of true risk, not just a checklist.
How many cameras can one recorder support?
It depends on the recorder and resolution you choose. We size the system to your property, balancing camera count, image quality, and storage, so every important area stays covered without overloading the equipment or running out of space.
Can I view my security cameras from my phone?
Yes. We set up secure remote viewing, so you can check any camera live from your phone or laptop wherever you are. You keep eyes on your property whether you are onsite, at home, or traveling.
How long is CCTV footage stored before it is overwritten?
That depends on storage size, camera count, and resolution. We size your system to hold the number of days you need, then set retention so older clips roll off only after your required window has passed.
Will a Sophos firewall slow down our internet?
No. Sized and tuned correctly, a Sophos firewall filters threats without dragging down speed. We match the appliance to your bandwidth and users, then configure it so protection stays strong and your connection stays fast.
Can you migrate or upgrade our SQL database without downtime?
In most cases, yes. We plan migrations and upgrades around your schedule, often using staged cutovers and off hours work to keep interruption near zero. Your data stays safe, backed up, and available while we move it.
Why is our database running slowly?
Slow databases usually trace to poor indexing, bloated tables, or missing maintenance. We find the real bottleneck, tune queries and indexes, and set proper upkeep, so records load quickly and stay reliable under daily load.
Can you recover data from a drive that clicks or is not recognized?
Often yes. Clicking or an undetected drive points to physical or firmware failure, which needs careful handling, not repeated power cycles. We assess the drive, explain your odds honestly, and use proven methods to rescue what we can.
Can you rebuild a failed RAID array?
Yes. A degraded or failed RAID needs the right rebuild order to avoid deeper loss. We diagnose the array, recover what is at risk, and restore it correctly, so your storage comes back intact rather than further damaged.
Can custom software connect to the tools we already use?
Yes. We build software with API integrations that link to the systems you already run, so data flows between them without manual copying. The result fits your workflow instead of forcing you to change how you work.
