Laptop Screen Repairs
The first of the most common jobs GY Computing carry out are smashed laptop screens. It is very easy to smash the laptop screen which can be caused by dropping your computer, holding it by the lid, and hitting the screen by mistake. Luckily, this is a 15 minute fix, and not an expensive repair either!!
Laptop Hard Drive Replacements
The second of the most common laptop repairs GY Computing carries out is in relation to a failed hard drive. Standard mechanical drives have a lifespan of 3-5 years, and should be changed after this! GY Computing tends to replace hard drives with SSD technology, which is much faster, and more reliable. Customers tend to be surprised how fast their computer becomes!
The most common upgrade we are asked to carry out relate to the installation of SSD drives, which offer impressive speeds, in comparison to mechanical hard drives which are big and bulky! SSD drives are faster, more reliable and more energy efficient!
Laptop Microsoft Windows Operating System Issues
Are you unable to boot into Windows? Perhaps your laptop is showing some very strange problems such as being unable to access the start menu! This is very common in Microsoft Windows 10, and is a nightmare scenario as many customers tend to think their data is gone or they will need to reinstall Windows. Luckily, GY Computing are able to fix most problems by repairing the Windows operating system, and bringing your computer back to life!

We've help hundreds of customers, read what they are saying about us
I picked GY Computing because they were well rated in terms of their feedback. What I got was a fast and very responsive service from Gregor. He knew exactly what he was doing, he added RAM for me, thoroughly cleaned out a very, very dusty computer, reducing the inner temperature by around 30degrees. He gave me an SSD drive and when the computer came back to me, it was faster and more responsive than I had ever seen it. It's the same machine, but it is so much faster and better than ever.I have no hesitation in recommending GY Computing. Their rates are reasonable and their service is exemplary.read more

Gregor was very friendly and informative and came to my place to help me fix my PC issues. As a student without a car I have a lot of trouble moving large devices on my own so that service was exactly what I was looking for. After taking a look at my old computer, we decided a new build would be better and then Gregor helped me decide on parts with informative recommendations and communications. Even when a seller sent me the wrong case, Gregor took it to himself to organize getting a new case and have it ready the next day for my new PC.Now I am writing this review from said new PC which was built in front of me, quickly and professionally. Everything looks great and I am certain to rely on this service if I encounter any future PC problems I cannot solve on my own.Would definitely recommend, 10/10.read more

GY Computing/Gregor was absolutely great. I had a problem diagnosing an issue with a newly built PC, which he identified in less than an hour. He was able to come over the next day to meet how urgent this issue was, which was brilliant.Overall, I highly recommend contacting Gregor to help you out with any issues; he's extremely knowledgeable, polite and approachable, whilst providing his services at a respectable price for his skills.read more

Amazing service. Gregor answered my call immediately about my water damaged laptop. He was able to offer a same day appointment. I was impressed from the moment I met him. He was very courteous, polite and well spoken. I immediately felt reassured that Gregor knew what he was doing.He was very quick and professional at diagnosing my laptop which required a new keyboard and mousepad. He kept me updated with the tracking information, and returned a few days later to fit. Gregor knows his stuff and I certainly would use him again. Thanks so much again for making the experience a good one.read more

Couldn’t recommend Gregor more for not only his astute knowledge of computers, but also his outstanding customer service. I asked him to install an SSD into my laptop, and he provided me with a complete breakdown of not only which drives were best based on my system requirements, but also their prices at cost. His service was faster and more affordable than three other companies I received quotes from and kept me updated on the progress of the job every single day with an email. He even went out of his way to collect and deliver my laptop directly to my office. The man clearly knows his stuff and I couldn’t recommend him more. Choose anyone else, and you’d probably just be wasting your time and money! I’ll definitely be using him again in the future.read more

Many thanks Gregor.I have no hesitation in recommending GY Computing! The level of service, the ability to contact Gregor, and the level of expertise are all attributes of this company! My PC problem was, complex, or at least that's the way it looked to me, it had been an ongoing problem for over a year, and given the amount of "EXPERTS" (and their are many) I had looking into the "problem", and their inability to solve said problem, without even a glimmer of hope, was, depressing and frustrating, and expensive! Looking online for someone to come along and affect a lasting repair, I came across Gregor's website, and was very impressed with the reviews, all of which suggested that I had at last found the 'competent person' who could finally fix my problem, and I wasn't wrong. Gregor arrived, gave the machine a thorough check over, was immediately aware that this problem was indeed "complex", and could be a number of things. Suffice it to say that a mere mortal such as myself, had no idea what he was talking about? It was agreed that he would take the PC away to his lab, or was it Labrador? and carry out a more thorough assessment, and get back to me. About a couple of days later, I received a call from Gregor to say that he was almost certain that the problem lay with my relatively new graphics card, which no one else had even considered. I then contacted the company I had purchased it from, they agreed to replace it, and within a couple of weeks it arrived, was fitted and now my PC is better than ever.RegardsColinread more

Great service from beginning to end. Gregor was a real professional. Handled a number of issues for me at home. I am disabled so having someone fix your computer at home is great. Gregor fixed a dodgy Windows Update issue for me, at a reasonable price. He even gave me great advice on my anti virus (He recommended McAfee). Thanks again.M Patterson.read more

Excellent service. Gregor responded to my online query within a couple of hours and he was really friendly, professional, and helpful. He ordered the replacement part for me and repaired my laptop within 15-20 minutes. Gregor really went the extra mile and gave me great advice on how I could improve my laptop's speed to get the most out of it (which is something I'd wanted to do but didn't think was possible). Fantastic service and I would highly recommend contacting Gregor for your computing repairs!read more

5* Would not hesitate to recommend. Fantastic service and communication from Gregor. It was so easy to book online and was able to get my computer fixed the very next day in my own home. Very reasonable price and really friendly service. He was very reassuring and I felt assured that he knew exactly what to do. So pleased that my issue is all sorted out and I have been given some great advice on backing up. I will not go to anyone else if I ever have any more problems. Thanks so much, Emma.read more

I had cracked the screen on my laptop. Gregor ordered a new screen and came out to my home a couple of days later on the weekend when it was convenient for me. He replaced it in no time and the quality of the new screen looks so much better than the original ever did! Excellent service and very affordable. I would highly recommend this company.read more

My HP 5030 printer was "misbehaving" and Gregor had to recalibrate the system as the printer was still working to the previous model. A bit of a mystery but he had me up and running within 30 minutes so I am delighted to be operational again. Gregor found my apparently fast fibre broadband slower than it should be and rectified that as well. I am a very happy customer.read more

Great service! Gregor has successfully repaired both my PC and my Mac on two separate occasions. Booking an appointment is easy and super fast. Gregor is very knowledgeable and also very responsive via email if you have additional questions. If you have a difficult issue he doesn't give up until he's fixed it. I highly recommend this service.read more

Absolutely amazing experience from beginning to end. My laptop I urgently needed data from died on the Sunday and I booked a slot for the following afternoon to get it backed up. Gregor from GY Computing was fantastic; friendly, helpful and professional. My data was backed up on the day and at a really good rate. I am now typing this review from an amazing new laptop I got reconditioned for an amazing price from Gregor. I can't recommend this company enough. No need to travel to a shop and wait for days leaving your laptop behind. Felt peace of mind having someone fix my laptop while I was there. I wouldn't go anywhere else now.read more

I came across Gregor looking for a professional to build a desktop according to my specification. I ordered the components myself after his affirmation that there were no compatibility issues. Once the parts have been delivered, Gregor arrived at my place for the prearranged appointment. He came well prepared and foresaw I had forgotten to purchase the CPU thermal paste. The built went smooth and without any issues. He seemed confident and patient about what he was doing. After completing the build, he carefully arranged the cables and tested the configuration, checked the CPU temperature and listened to the work of cooling fans. It impressed me how dedicated and passionate he was about his work. Apart from being professional, he was friendly and understanding. For instance, he didn't mind me looking as he was building the machine. Overall, I was delighted with his service and can genuinely recommend him if you are looking for a person to assemble your PC.read more

Contacted GY Computing regarding an issue with my laptops card reader. After then arranging a mutually convenient appointment Gregor attended and proceeded to professionally assess the problem which turned out to be software based, he then ran the relevant diagnostics and subsequently proceeded to fix the card reading issue and also tidy up and optimise the functionality of the laptop itself which was long overdue and much appreciated. It was a refreshing change to deal with an IT Specialist who not only knew what he was talking about (without using lots of jargon!) but actually took the time to resolve other issues he'd found (without also suddenly increasing the fee!). Overall great Service, competitive pricing and most importantly a customer focused approach, will definitely use this company again and would/will highly recommend. A good job, well done thanks again Gregor.read more

My computer would not 'turn-on' this morning. I rang Greg at about 10am and he came to my house at 2.30pm. He talked through everything he was doing and was very friendly and honest with he commentary. Everything was described as "This is the difficult bit"! But he sorted the problem. It was a very reasonable 'fixed price' and his work is guaranteed for six months. It is now 4pm and everything is working perfectly again. An excellent service and I would certainly use him again. In fact; I've already told him that I would like him to come back in July to speed my computer up. Thank you Greg.Preston Clareread more

Excellent. Punctual, polite, honest and friendly guy. Thought my computer was totally dead and in a panic contacted GY Computing, who got my up and running in less than 2 hours. I love how Gregor comes to the house, a service I didn't know existed. Thanks for your hard work. Even though he is just out of university, I found Gregor's knowledge incredible. He also gave me lots of excellent advice, and helped me with an Ipad problem which he didn't charge me any extra for. That is service. Have recommended him to my family.read more

Excellent, first-class service.I had an old mechanical hard drive that has not worked for years. But as I'm moving home, I thought it would be a good opportunity to try to recover the data.Gregor contacted me (on the weekend) shortly after I sent him a message through his site and he arranged to attend to have a look at the drive. He spent approx. 2 hours trying to work on it, and eventually we decided he would take the drive with him to spend more time on it.Gregor has had the drive for the past week and has given me daily updates on progress. The drive was wrecked, but Gregor still managed to recover many of my priority items from it - photographs from past family holidays and photos from when my son was younger. Gregor spent lots of time and effort trying to recover the data, yet when it came to charging he charged me his set rate. Very pleasant to deal with, very professional and extremely capable - I would not hesitate in using Gregor and GY Computing for any future tech challenges! Thanks Gregor!read more

Gregor called out straight from holiday, identified the problem, ordered a VERY reasonably priced replacement part, returned and my laptop has a new lease of life.

Excellent service, Gregor is very knowledgeable in his field and was able to explain to me exactly what he was doing and why he was doing it. I had my PC upgraded as the SSD wasn't big enough and he installed a new one efficiently and effectively. We had a few problems because I wanted to stick with Windows 8 but due to his knowledge he was able to work around them easily for me. Would thoroughly recommend and should I have any issues with my PC in the future he is the one I'll go to. Plus a home visit is far easier than taking a computer into store especially if you have a custom built PC like mine. He is also very friendly and professional! 5 stars.read more

A fantastic and efficient service. My computer was displaying a strange message and constantly crashing. Gregor worked out my Dell Laptop required new memory. He was very quick to diagnose this and arrived a couple of days later with the new part. My computer is working perfectly now. Very nice man who is unbelievably knowledgable with computers.

Delighted customer and I’m sure he will remain very busy! Thanks again.read more

He went out of his way to go and buy a new one that same day and got my computer up and running for the next day. He was friendly and you could definitely see he enjoys what he does, definitely best PC repair I've gotten! Fast, efficient, friendly and for a great price, highly recommend it to everyone!read more

Fantastic Service from Gregor. The temperature of my CPU has been around 65-85 degrees for as long as I can remember and as a result my fan was really noisy. Gregor took his time to take apart my custom laptop to determine the source of the heat which was caused by quite a few things. Gregor took this is in stride and was not phase when he noticed a few potential issues but instead focused on finding a pragmatic solution - which he did. My CPU is now running at 32 degrees and my laptop is quiet! Also worth noting that Gregor has a fantastic manner and made the whole process easy. Highly recommended!read more

Customer Testimonial
Fallon, Glasgow
What problem did you have with your computer?
There was physical damage in numerous areas of the laptop, which was caused by another IT company. This included missing internal components, internal and external damage!
Why did you choose GY Computing?
A relative found GY Computing online and admired your high qualifications, and well rated business which was vitally important after the first experience
What have the results been so far?
The computer now works perfectly and smoothly! Before, it was taking around 20 minutes to turn on! We also have a unique colouring system as we had to change parts. I decided to jazz it up a little and opt for different colours! It is now in perfect condition with no physical marks
What did you like most about the service?
It was mainly the fact you do home visits. We can get to know you, find out the problems we have, and get a personalised experience. It is not like a shop where you feel like just a number.
Would you recommend GY Computing
Most certainly! I will give you 5 stars. In fact, I will give you 10 if I am allowed!
