Q: Bought it, unplugged after 100 percent, less than an hour later with nothing running, its down to 74 percent!! so how long is the battery supposed to last? this should last 4 or 5 hours right? If nothing is running on it?

A: This system has a battery life of up to 5 hours depending on the work that the device is performing. Be sure there are no unwanted programs running in the background, draining the battery. Here is a link to some tips for finding out what is draining your battery: https://www.laptopmag.com/articles/battery-saver-windows-10.

Q: Can this laptop run a CAD program smoothly?

A: That will depend on the requirements and compatibility of the specific CAD software you will be using. We recommend you check with the software publisher's web site for their compatibility with Windows 10 Home 64-bit operating system and the minimum/recommended hardware requirements (Is a Graphics card required, the processor speed and the minimum required system RAM and the minimum available hard drive space) to run their program, then compare those requirements to this system's configuration.
