I believe the answer is:

geeky

I'm a little stuck... Click here to teach me more about this clue!

'interested in computers?' is the definition.
I don't know anything about this answer so I can't tell whether this works.

'e key fixed by guy primarily' is the wordplay.
'fixed' indicates anagramming the letters.
'by' is a charade indicator (letters next to each other).
'primarily' suggests taking the first letters.
The first letter of 'guy' is 'g'.
'key' with letters rearranged gives 'eky'.
'e'+'eky'='eeky'
'eeky' after 'g' is 'GEEKY'.

Can you help me to learn more?

(Other definitions for geeky that I've seen before include "Socially inept, nerdy" , "Nerdish" .)
