To obtain help in solving computer problems, register an account on http://helpdesk.pa.msu.edu/ and create a Helpdesk Case via the web interface. Once you've registered, you can use this helpdesk system account to submit cases from then, logging on with the same E-mail address and password.
It is best if you register using an E-mail address ending in "msu.edu", as then you will be allowed to use E-mail for follow-up messages instead of having to log into the web interface each time.
When submitting a computing helpdesk case, please provide as COMPLETE INFORMATION as possible about the nature and circumstances of the problem.
Note: the P-A helpdesk website is not highly secure - net traffic for user login and case submission & viewing is not encrypted. Don't use the same password you might use on other sites with higher security levels.
E-mail about problems sent to other addresses will automatically be lowered in priority relative to properly submitted helpdesk cases.
NOTE: P-A Computing does not control the BPS Building's "MSUNet" WiFi system. If you are having difficulty acquiring or maintaining a connection to that system, contact the MSU IT Services Helpdesk at 2-6200.
