Machine Setup Request Form

To use this automated request process, the computer must be on campus and tagged with a UGA control number. Please call Property Control at 706.542.6988 to request identification tags for new equipment or to replace missing tags. We will not service untagged equipment.

Properly completed requests are entered into the system and processed in the order they are received. If you are buying a new machine, you will see a faster response if you have purchased the Terry Standard Desktop or Laptop. Please note that rebuilds of existing machines usually take longer to process.

  Data Storage

Please note that the HelpDesk does not maintain backups of your disk space—it is your responsibility to keep backups of any files that you consider important. We highly recommend that all users store data in their home directory on the network (the N:\ drive).

This network drive is backed up every night; it is an easy way to save an extra, separate copy of mission-critical data. Please note that the N:\ drive is only accessible via a Novell account.

Please backup all data to the N:\ drive before we pick up the machine for service. This includes data stored on your desktop, in My Documents, and the C: drive. We will make a full backup of your machine, but it is a good idea to have your own additional backup in the case of an unexpected event such as data corruption.

If you need assistance locating where your data is stored, please call the HelpDesk at 542.6799.
