My husband is very pleased with this desktop. The SSD drive together with the Intel i5 makes it very quick to respond. So far all is good.

Seems like a good machine for the price. Reason I didn't give it 5 stars is since I've owned it I've had to unplug the back of it to start it.

The computer works well, and once I am more Windows 10 savvy, I'll be able to turn off the things that are new, and unnecessary to me.

It took a week for the computer to arrive, which is OK because I ordered it just a few days before Christmas. Unboxed and hooked it up. Computer never booted up. It was DOA.

Brand response from YourDellTeam
Posted .
gemi,
Thanks for your review and we're sorry that your desktop is not working properly. We'd suggest checking to make sure that all of the plugs are properly inserted into your desktop and into the outlet.
You can also follow these steps to try and start your computer:
1. If the computer is displaying the Dell logo and does not move past that point, it has probably failed POST. 2. If the power indicator lights up and it is amber or orange, this is usually an indicator that it has failed POST. 3. If you see text on a black screen, the computer is currently performing the POST. If the computer stays in that condition and does not move past it, it has probably failed POST. 4. If the video screen displayed anything at all during the startup process but is now black, this probably indicates that the computer failed POST. 5. If the computer is beeping or if Caps/Num/Scroll Locks are flashing, note if there is a particular pattern in which it beeps or flashes. 6. If the computer is not beeping and caps/num/scroll locks are not flashing, unplug all connections and remove all media communication devices (e.g. external monitors); reconnect one at a time and check if the computer functions. 7. For a notebook, press and hold the Fn key and then press the power button. This starts the pre-boot testing and will launch ePSA. In case you have a Desktop at the Dell logo screen tap the F12 key to enter One Time Boot Menu and use the arrow keys to highlight Diagnostics and press enter.
