    Just needed a backup computer. Let’s say you get what you pay for. Quality of build is not so good. It had rebooting problems once. No problems since

      Hello Hotelmike,

      We want to thank you for your valued feedback. We sincerely apologize for the problems you have had with your Inspiron 3501. This is certainly not what we like to hear from our loyal customers. We will share your comments with our quality team so improvements can be made. To help with the rebooting issues, below I have provided a link, on that page, you can choose between, no power, no post, no boot, or no video. Once you choose you can find the options to help troubleshoot and resolve that issue. We would also suggest making sure all your drivers and downloads are up to date on your PC. I have also given you a link below to the Drivers and Downloads page for your computer.

    Much better than my old one. The only thing that I did not like was I had to turn off the Microsoft home and student S. This was to install some programs.

    Great laptop so far. Had a HP one from 2009 and Spectrum wouldn’t support it so I was made to buy another one. Everyone said to buy Dell. Happy I did.

    Like the computer for the most part. Have come in for Geek Squad support, but still don't know how to make Google come up as search engine instead of Yahoo.
