My old computer got professionally hacked. I went online to review good intermediate home computers. I am retired and no longer have a need for a five star geek quad core. Next, I went into Best Buy to look at and purchase a replacement. As I was shopping a salesman and a passerby geek were explaining the different brands and options to another shopper. Both confirmed that this unit (my initial choice) was a great home computer without breaking the bank. I have had it for two months and it is just a good solid computer.

I thought I was getting a great deal on these but like everything, you get what you pay for..bought a total of 6 of these units and 3 have been back to repair within months of purchase. we use them as workstations on a server network and they have been unreliable.when they work, they work well even though they have windows 10, which sucks, and only belongs on a phone or apple product, not a pc

A value priced desktop to solve an immediate problem. Wish it could have been reverted to Windows 8, but you get what is available. Seems a little slow for the processor, but still way faster than what it replaced. Will work for basic house needs like spreadsheets, schoolwork, picture and video editing, surfing and shopping, but I wouldn't use it for advanced games.

My laptop was being repaired and I needed a computer to get me through the upcoming week. I did not need nor want an expensive new computer. I was able to get Microsoft Office free for one month and free virus protection. It was a reasonably updated computer. That was all I needed. I had no problem. I was/ am happy with my purchase.

With regard to the power up issues you mention with two of your devices, there may be driver updates for your specific system. Follow the link below to look for new driver updates for your specific system. You can also run diagnostics from the Lenovo site as well. As always, be sure to create a restore point on your system before you make any changes. You can do this by just typing "restore point" in the search window within Cortana and follow the link to create a restore point.
