Hi again!
This week’s look behind the scenes of a Disc Depot repair is the repair of a faulty AMD/ATI graphics chip (model: 216-0809000) on an Apple MacBook Pro (A1286 15″ 2011 version).
As you can see on the first photograph, this MacBook Pro isn’t showing anything on the screen- it’s totally blank. As usually happens with problems due to the chip itself, we replace the 2011 version of the chip with a newer upgraded- and fixed- 2013 replacement version of the same chip.
Welcome to another behind-the-scenes look at a Disc Depot Dundee repair! This week we’re showing you the replacement of a broken digitizer on a Samsung Galaxy Tab 2 tablet. (This is the 10.1″ model, number GT-P5110).

This time round, rather than a hardware repair, we’re going to show you some of what goes into a virus and malware removal.
As usually happens, a customer brought their computer in to our Dundee store complaining of popups and slow performance. It turned out that the computer was chock-full of spyware, malware and unwanted rubbish like “adware”.
To show you what’s involved in having your computer, tablet or smartphone repaired, we’ve decided to put some jobs online, starting with this iPad Air being fixed in our Union Street store in Dundee city centre.
These photos were all taken while our technician carried out the actual repair on his workbench. We’ve included the important stages here (albeit without giving away all our clever repair secrets and techniques!)
