UTRGV Computer Support: 

• Please ensure you have restarted the computer as that often resolves the problem. 
   
• Install software without admin rights:  Most full-time staff and all faculty can install software on their UTRGV computer using the Software Center or PowerBroker.
   
• If you still need computer assistance, it is best to start a chat session or call when you are at your computer and have time.  This prevents the need for IT to call customers back and reduces service delays (often, multiple contact attempts are needed).
