ARX Computers

Welcome to the home page of ARX Computers! We are dedicated to helping Chicago area folks in homes and small businesses navigate the minefields of the computer world. Whether you currently have a problem or simply don't know where to turn for advice, we are eager to assist you. We pride ourselves on friendly rapid-response customer service and excellent communications. We try our hardest not to speak "computerese" and be as responsive as possible.

We specialize in Windows problems, spyware, hardware repair, virus recovery, local area networking (share the Internet with cables or wireless), and associated issues for the home and small business user. We also set up and administer small business servers, high speed Internet connections (DSL or cable modem), relocate, set up, and dispose of computers. In short, we are the IT Department for those who don't have one!
