A little less tech stress.

Computer trouble?
Let’s sort it out.

A slow computer. Wi-Fi that won’t cooperate. A new TV with too many cables. You don’t have to figure it all out yourself.

I’m Chris, the person behind HourNerd. Tell me what’s going wrong, and I’ll help you work through the options in plain English.

Appointments by arrangement. Start with a call, text, or email.

What I help with

Everyday technology.
A helpful human.

You can describe the problem in your own words. You don’t need to know the technical name.

Computers acting up

Slow PCs, software problems, frustrating error messages, and help setting up a new computer.

Wi-Fi & internet

Connection problems, router setup, and getting your computer and other devices onto your network.

Printers & devices

Printer connections, scanners, accessories, and those devices that refuse to talk to each other.

TVs & streaming

Hooking up a TV, connecting streaming devices, and making sense of the cables and inputs.

Ethernet connections

Low-voltage Ethernet cabling and wired connections for the places you need your technology to work.

Email & everyday setup

Email setup, software installation, file organization, and guidance on backups and everyday computer use.
