      Thank you for choosing the Lenovo IdeaPad S145-15 laptop. We are pleased to hear that the value and performance of the IdeaPad S145-15 meets your computing needs so well. This is an entry level, light use system with its Intel Pentium processor. It is not meant for multi-tasking or demanding programs. It is good for Microsoft Office and light internet browsing. This model ships with Windows 10 S-Mode Operating System. Windows 10 S-Mode provides added security by only allowing APPs available ( and therefore certified by Microsoft) at the Microsoft Store. If you don't need the added security or you need to install APPs not available at the Microsoft Store, you can switch to standard Windows 10 Home 64-bit Operating System, at no additional cost.

    I purchased this computer to replace an Acer that I was using for home use. I do not use it for gaming so it has all the features that I need. I use a number pad for most of my work and this one has a nice feel.

    We have several computers in our offices connecting to a network server. This is a perfect "slave" computer for this purpose. It rarely gets on the internet, doesn't deal with graphics, and doesn't require scads of memory.

      Thank you for choosing the Lenovo IdeaPad S145-15 laptop. This is an entry level, light use system with its Intel Pentium processor. It is not meant for multi-tasking or demanding programs. It is good for Microsoft Office and light internet browsing. If this describes your computing needs, the IdeaPad S145-15 would be a good choice. You can always keep your computer running at its best by keeping the Windows 10 Operating System up to date and also making sure that the supporting BIOS files and drivers are also up to date. You can easily accomplish this by scanning the device with the Lenovo Utility software installed on the computer. This system has Lenovo utilities installed to help maintain the health of the device and keep the operating system software up to date. Type "Lenovo Vantage" in the Cortana Search window (if Lenovo Vantage is not installed on your device, you can download the APP and install it now). Select Lenovo Vantage from the list. In the window that opens, click on "Health and Support". In the expanded menu, select "Hardware Scan" In the window that opens, select "Run Quick Tests". This will scan your entire system for errors. Follow any directions that may pop up. If the problem continues after this scan, now click on "System Update". First select Windows update from the menu. Scan your system to be sure you have the latest version of Windows 10. Once that scan is complete, select "Additional Updates". This will scan your device to be sure there are no new BIOS/Driver updates needed. Follow any instructions that may pop up. If the issue still continues after these updates, we recommend you call Lenovo Tech Support at: 877-453-6686 for additional help. Lenovo
