Posted .We are sorry to hear that you are having issues with your Lenovo IdeaCentre A540-27 All-In-One system, model number F0EK007HUS. First, be sure any software you installed is compatible with Windows 10. There is no need to install Microsoft Office software. The software is already part of the operating system, you just need to activate the software with a purchased product key. If you have installed a copy of Microsoft Office, this is conflicting with the existing copy on the system and this will slow your system down. If you have installed a 3rd party anti-virus program, be sure that Windows Defender is turned off and that the trial version of McAfee Anti-Virus software is uninstalled. There can only be one anti-virus program on the system. You may need to restore your system to original factory default settings if any of the programming errors have occurred. You can do that by typing "restore" in the Cortana search window. Just click on the magnifying glass icon at the bottom left of your Windows 10 Desktop. Click on "Reset This PC" Then click on "Get Started" and follow the on screen directions to restore to factory defaults. If the problem persists, we recommend you contact Lenovo Tech Support at: 877-453-6686.

Terrible phone system. Canceled appointment
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I was supposed to have my set up today. I thought my appointment was between 7 to 9. When I called the person on the phone said it was actually 11 to 1. I tried calling. 8 to 10 minute wait after going through the stupid system so I ended the call. When I called the last time apparently there was an alert on my appointment. The appoint was canceled but I was not informed. What a waste of my time. So I have no idea if the computer is working.

Horrible Sound
||Posted . Owned for 4 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Lenovo or Best buy I would love to hear from you. I like the computer but the sound out of the box is horrendous. I would return it if I hadn't already loaded my work applications on it. It's sad they advertise the Hamon Kardon as a premium now I can't find this language on the site. hmmm... Is this a joke?---------------- Subwoofer included Adds deep bass to your audio experience. Creates rich, detailed sound for your music, movies and games.

Bad products
||Posted . Owned for less than 1 week when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Worked for 45 minutes, long enough to install McAfee anti virus, then shut down. Finally walked away, tried again an hour later, worked for 45 minutes. Took it back and got another one, Best Buy does not check it out as they were not willing to check it out. Told me to never trust ANYTHING from Best Buy again, impression i left with as no quality control exists with Best Buy.

Posted .There is a 30-day trial of McAffee Virus protection software already installed on this computer. There is no need to install additional McAfee Software. To keep the 30-trial software active after the 30-day period, you will need to purchase a subscription to McAfee VPS, then enter the Product Key within the 30-day Trial Version software. No additional McAfee software needs to be installed. Here is a link to instructions for activating your purchased subscription to McAfee VPS: https://www.mcafee.com/en-us/consumer-support/activate-product-key.html

Lenovo IdeaCentre Garbage
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Worse computer ever...My previous Lenovo all in one lasted 10 years with no issues and I never had to use my Geek Squad Extended Warranty. This new Lenovo IdeaCentre is garbage, a waste of $1049.00. I had to return this product 4 times before I switched to my current iMac Pro 27". I definitely recommend spending the extra money for the IMAC.
