🚨 Outlook Service Disruption

We’re currently aware of reports of an Outlook outage, with users experiencing issues accessing Microsoft Outlook and related services.

The disruption has also been recorded on Downdetector, suggesting this is affecting a wider number of users rather than being an isolated issue.

If you’re currently having trouble with Outlook, we recommend:
🔹 Checking your internet connection
🔹 Avoiding repeated password resets — the issue may be service-side
🔹 Trying again later
🔹 Keeping an eye on official Microsoft service updates

We’ll continue to monitor the situation and share any significant updates.

🛠️ Another High-End Gaming PC Saved! 🎮💪

This monster gaming rig came into Computerworks with frustrating boot issues that were preventing it from running reliably.

🔍 After thorough diagnostics, we traced the fault to one of the most expensive components in the system – a faulty Intel Core i9-14900K processor, a CPU that costs around £600 to replace.

System Specifications:
🔥 Intel Core i9-14900K
💾 64GB DDR5 RAM
⚡ 5TB Total Storage
🎮 GeForce RTX 4080 SUPER 16GB

After replacing the faulty processor and carrying out extensive testing, the system is now back to running exactly as it should – fast, stable, and ready for gaming once again. ✅

This repair is a great reminder that even the highest-spec PCs can suffer hardware failures, and accurate diagnostics are essential before replacing parts.

If your PC is experiencing:
🔹 Boot problems
🔹 Random crashes
🔹 Blue screens
🔹 Freezing or instability

Don't guess—let us diagnose the problem properly.

🙄​ Who's guilty?

📁 Is Your Downloads Folder Doing Too Much?

Most people save everything to their Downloads folder—but it's not designed to be a permanent home for your important files.

Take a few minutes to move documents, photos, invoices and work files into organised folders. It makes them easier to find, easier to back up, and much less likely to be lost if something goes wrong.

✅ Create folders like Documents, Work, Personal, or Photos
✅ Keep your desktop and Downloads folder clutter-free
✅ Make backups quicker and more reliable

A little organisation today can save a lot of frustration tomorrow.

💙 Need help organising your computer or setting up automatic backups? Computerworks is here to help.

🚨 TECH MYTH ALERT 🚨

"Microsoft will phone you about your infected computer."

❌ FALSE!

Microsoft does NOT make unsolicited phone calls to tell you your computer has a virus or security problem.

Scammers often pretend to be from Microsoft and use fear tactics to convince people to:
⚠️ Give them remote access to their computer
⚠️ Hand over passwords or personal information
⚠️ Pay for fake repairs or security software

If you receive a call claiming to be from Microsoft, hang up immediately.

The more people who know about this scam, the fewer people will become victims.
