    Pushing the power button doesn’t mean the computer will turn on. I have had this computer 2 weeks and now the drive is locked and requires a code that I can not get because the drive is locked. I am going to return this computer today because I think a product should just work and not have to fight it

    After 3 days the laptop started to crash while playing a game well under the laptop’s capabilities. It would allow me to play the game fine one day and then proceed to crash the next and I was only able to restart it via a hard reset. I decided to return it.
