I bought a model in 2020 and this has a much noticeable upgrade an quality from the previous lap top. The exterior us far much hardy and practical and the computer runs much faster too. I'm happy with it so far. Had a few minor issues but managed to iron them out quickly. PCSpecialist are...

Depends what the problem is I think

This was my second. The first one (bought from PCS in 2015) lasted 5 years and then conked during lockdown and when that broke, I was pretty accepting of that. Got a good 5 years out of it. I still have it sitting in a box somewhere. I probably did skim the welcome booklet when I bought it...

The reason I have rejected the repair cost is because for an extra £300 I could get a brand new computer with newer components. Paying £900 repair is just a diminishing return and i'm frankly just very disappointed that this has happened and annoyed with PCS. I appreciate the points you made...

Right, so I've been very patient with this whole process but this is just insane now. So my laptop is 2 years old, modern system and all the latest components at the time and started experiencing epilepsy inducing screen flickering at the start of 2023. I will note that I had a 3 year...

Ok, thank you mate :)

Ok thanks I will try getting it serviced first as a first port of call. Appreciate the help.

Would servicing hte laptop really fix the issue though? If I hope the manual sleep button and then wake the computer again the screen comes back on.

No I haven't to be honest. Is that someone I can do myself or would I need to get it done professionally?

Hi Guys, I am getting hit with a black screen every time I boot up any game, without fail. You can still hear the game playing the the back ground and it seems to affect the whole computer i.e. if i tab out it doesn't affect the issue so it's not the game itself that is black screening buy...
