A Quick Fix for Your Broken Laptop
A Surprising Way to Get Your Computer Up and Running
Do you believe your laptop is broken, but you worry about having enough money to buy a new one? Sometimes a laptop that seems completely destroyed actually only requires the replacement of an individual component to get it up and running again.
For example, if your computer seems to boot up with the fan running, but no graphic elements will display, it could be an issue with your CPU. Memory problems are less common, which is why memory components usually have warranties, sometimes lifetime warranties.
Problems with RAM on Your Computer
Random Access Memory, or RAM, is the way in which your computer stores temporary data, and is not saved like other data files. Sometimes people will think their RAM is faulty, when it is, in fact, another component. If you have computer performance problems when you’re in a graphics program, there may be a problem with your graphics driver.
Other Computer Issues Solved by One Component
If you are having laptop performance problems, they could be caused by a variety of other things. For instance, too much heat in your machine, a failing power supply, even dust or pet hair can turn into performance problems. Often many things can be ruled out, and then sometimes it’s a virus or some kind of malware issue.
How Do You Know if the Motherboard is Broken?
The most costly issue to resolve is caused by a broken-down motherboard. Though it sounds like something out of Star Trek, the motherboard is responsible for many functions within your computer. How can you tell if your motherboard is faulty? Some symptoms may include: a monitor that shows lines across the screen, a very slow boot-up (a symptom of other component problems, too), or a burning smell.
Because there are so many symptoms that mimic other component problems, it’s important to get an accurate diagnosis from a computer repair expert. Be sure to speak with an expert before you throw your laptop in the trash. If your laptop is fixable, you won’t have to buy a new one, and chances are, the right repair expert can get your old laptop running like new!

The Best Trees for Commercial Landscaping:
Top Ways to Spruce Up Your Surroundings
Landscaping for your business property is an art form. Every plant, every tree you select sends a message, and creates an ambience. You want to convey a welcoming environment for employees, and an attitude of success for customers and clients. You’d be amazed at what a difference certain plantings can make! If you’re interested in transforming your property, take a look at some of the best trees and plants you can add to your landscape.
TREES
Pin Oak
Of course, it’s important to note that oak trees and other species of tree that have far-reaching roots can sometimes pose a problem for underground pipes. Depending on the nature of your business, you might be more cautious about planting oak trees. They do, however, add a strong, majestic presence to the landscape. The Pin Oak grows rapidly and can reach 50 to 80 feet tall, and be 30 to 40 feet wide. In the fall, you’ll have vibrant yellow and red leaves, which will change, of course, to brown. This type of tree grows well in the grass, so it’s good for those grassy areas of your property. A couple of things to be aware of—don’t trim the lower limbs until the tree is mature. It will have a shape that features a rounded top when it’s full grown. Also, this isn’t a tree to plant if you have very dry conditions. Places that get a reasonable amount of rain and moisture will do well with this tree.
Jacquemontii Birch
These trees grow from 35 to 40 feet tall, and will be 18 to 20 feet wide. They take on a narrow, column-like shape, which makes them a good fit for areas around buildings with tight spaces. As more buildings feel crammed together, this will give an appearance of space to breathe!
Pistache
This tree is especially beautiful in the fall—with leaves turning orange to red. It grows from 30 to 60 feet tall, and can handle most types of weather conditions, even drought when it’s mature. So this is a good tree to plant when you want flexibility. It’s ideal for the side of the street or near a parking lot. Keep in mind, the growth is slow to moderate, so it will take a while to reach full maturity.
Norway Spruce
This is a hardy, wind-resistant tree that’s perfect for places with volatile weather, such as the Northeast. It grows to an impressive 100 feet tall, and it grows fast. So if you want an effect of towering trees on or near your property, this is one to consider. The Norway Spruce does well in heat and humidity too, so an especially grueling summer won’t be a problem for this tree.
Red Maple
This is a hardy tree that is great for lining the street near your business. It does well in wet, moist soil and is typically found in the eastern United States.
Other trees to consider include American Elm and Sycamore—these add a noble quality to your property. They are also very adaptable and quick to grow.

Outdoor Landscape Lighting
Make Your Yard an Inviting Showplace
Imagine inviting family and friends over to your home, roasting s’mores and hanging out around a fire pit on a brisk fall evening. This can be a reality, with more living space extending to the outdoors. At the Veron Company, we specialize in landscaping, among other services, and we can help provide outdoor lighting that truly makes your home the envy of the neighborhood.
We can install a low voltage lighting system that’s affordable, while offering greater curb appeal. Low voltage lights are not only less costly, but they’re safer and can help you achieve any effect you want. We can ensure even, long-term lighting that illuminates the best features of your yard, gardens and other inviting details. We can even install a 24-hour system if you desire. Here are some things to consider if you’re thinking about outdoor lighting:
Curb Appeal
Outdoor lighting adds greater interest to your property. But you want to install it in places where it will most enhance the landscape. You can spotlight trees, outdoor features like gardens and streams, a pool area and more. The type of lighting can create different moods, depending on what you want. Whether you are illuminating special trees or trying to cast a warm glow over the area, we have you covered.
Gathering Areas
The next decision to make is where to install lighting. If you’re planning backyard gatherings, there are many choices to illuminate areas around key landscape features or simply to outline patio steps.
In the front yard, you can show off your property with lights that cast a glow on your home at night—whether for aesthetic purposes or for greater security.
Safety
Lighting is a great idea for making steps, walkways, pool areas and other places less hazardous at night. As mentioned above, lighting can also deter trespassers on your property.
Why Call a Professional?
Landscape lighting is an art that requires a great understanding of strategy, as well as technical elements. The type of lights you choose depends on what your goals are. For example, we recommend low lighting hidden under foliage to create a soft mood for a garden path. If you want to show off a special feature like a pond or fountain, a spotlight will give it the attention it deserves.
You’ll need professionals to install the electrical elements of this project. Wiring should be buried at a certain depth and done properly to protect it from water. Also, roots of trees need to be considered when installing electrical wiring.
The Veron Company is committed to helping you achieve the look you want at a price that’s within your budget. Contact us today to schedule a free lighting demonstration! You’ll be able to see all of the benefits and exciting effects of adding lighting to your landscape.
