Tech Support for Legacy Systems and Troubleshooting ExpertsIs your printer refusing to work with your computer again? Are you stuck with a weird error that no one on the forums seems to understand? Or maybe you have an ancient device that stores priceless data, but no modern system will talk to it? That’s where I come in - call me your digital detective.
I specialize in solving the kinds of tech problems most people walk away from—legacy hardware, software compatibility issues, obscure drivers, and cryptic error messages. Whether it’s a memory leak in a 20-year-old Palm PDA or making two completely unrelated systems communicate, I’ve been there and I've fixed that.
If your setup is unique, outdated, or just plain broken, I’ll treat it like a puzzle worth solving. Tech archeology meets modern ingenuity. I’m also happy to travel and work on-site if needed—sometimes the only way to truly understand a system is to sit down with it in person.
“Legacy systems fear him. Devs envy him. Managers don’t understand him.” - one of my clients, probably.
