There's more to a setup than switching it on: I create the Windows account properly, run every pending update, strip out the trial software nobody wants and reconnect the printer. Then I move your files, photos and bookmarks across from the old machine, checking the transfer before I leave. The first backup is configured before I leave, so the new machine is protected from its first evening. A basic PC or laptop setup sits in the £50–£75 band on my pricing page, and phone and remote diagnosis is free until I tell you what is wrong and what it will cost.
A scam or an infection changes the shape of the job: I sweep for malware, remove the pop-ups and any remote-access tool the callers left behind, reset browser and account security, set up honest antivirus, and talk you through what the next attempt will look like, so you can hang up with confidence. Scam pop-ups worry plenty of retired residents along Straight Road — one clean visit settles the machine, and a plain-English explanation settles the nerves. Phones and tablets get the same care on the software side — scam apps, rogue profiles and adware removed, accounts locked down with proper passwords and two-factor — though I don't repair phone screens or other hardware; this is the security side only. Scheduled cleanups like these run at £25 per 15 minutes, first hour capped at £75 on weekdays, after that £25 per 15 minutes with no cap.

Every Old Windsor repair follows the same three steps: a free phone diagnosis, the cost approved before work starts, and the fix — remotely the same day or at your home — under my No‑Fix, No‑Fee guarantee (t&cs).
I diagnose power and boot faults, carry out safe static-discharge resets, and fit SSD or RAM upgrades where they help. If I cannot fix the fault, you do not pay for the repair work under my No‑Fix, No‑Fee guarantee (t&cs), and the visit fee still applies once I have arrived.
Yes. Larger gardens often have long Wi-Fi runs where the signal gives out well before the end. I improve the reach rather than asking you to move the router.
Disconnect the machine from the internet first, and do not touch anything else. I then clean the infection out properly to make sure no unauthorised software is left running, and secure the accounts it could have reached.

Yes. A repeating sequence of beeps points to memory or graphics initialisation errors, and I diagnose the exact faulty component — RAM, power supply, motherboard or graphics — before quoting. Free phone and remote diagnosis until I tell you what is wrong and what it will cost, with no obligation.
If you entered banking details, call your bank's fraud department immediately from a different device — a mobile or landline. Then I deep-clean the machine: registry hooks scrubbed, rogue remote-access agents removed, and no keystroke loggers left behind.
Usually, yes. Homes around Bishopsgate often sit on long copper telephone lines, so I start with the master socket and quality microfilters, then add a hybrid 4G/5G mobile broadband failover and speed up the internal network.
