Questionable New Computer operation
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Just started using the new computer as it was a Xmas gift. The battery doesn't seem to last very long. I expected 9 hours and it's more like 3 hours. The 3rd time I turned on the computer and launched Microsoft 365 it immediately went into some weird mode and beeped and the screen locked with a cross. I assumed it was low battery and plugged it in, but that didn't resolve the problem. I let it sit for an hour plugged in and restarted and it seems to be working. Looking up "Inspiron beeps" on the web I found those are error codes. Hopefully it doesn't come back but if so I hope its during the warranty period.
