A:AnswerThank you for the question. No, sorry. This laptop is presented with Windows 11 in S Mode and Quickbooks does not support S Mode. Normally that wouldn't be a problem, because you can convert out of S Mode (free, simple, not reversible), however, Quickbooks requires more RAM and a faster processor.
A:AnswerYes, it's going to have a lot of probblems trying to run iRacing. The processor isn't powerful enough, the computer doesn't have nearly enough RAM, there isn't enough storage, and iRacing requires a dedicated graphics card, which this computer doesn't have.
A:AnswerHello. Thanks for your question. This HP laptop cannot handle Quickbooks. We recommend looking at the system requirements of Quickbooks. We recommend partnering with a Blue Shirt team member in the computer department at Best Buy for further assistance.
A:AnswerThank you for the question. Windows in S Mode requires exclusive use of the Edge browser and downloads only from the Microsoft Store. You can overcome this by converting the laptop out of S Mode, into Windows 11 Home - a free, easy, and non-reversible conversion. We would suggest that you review other system requirements for Respondus to ascertain if this system (processor, amount of RAM, etc. meets those requirements.

A:AnswerBecause the computer is running in S Mode, it can only download apps that are in the Windows Store, and the AOL browser is not available. However, you can easily take the computer out of S mode, and then you could download and run the AOL browser.
