3/19/2010 10:19:33 AM Doesn't require frequent reboots, but only occasional. CA software fails to delete some viruses - identifies them only. CA component files fail to load on startup. Since CA installation, unable to change users without logging each out completely. Willing to talk about them: [email protected] or 508-746-2562, East Coast daytime. Dave Penkala

1/31/2010 12:07:20 AM Started having problems a few weeks ago. Computer started locking up & required a hard boot to get unfrozen. Called Mcafee & they removed viruses, called Dell & they did some troubleshooting, Comcast came out & checked the connection speed. Added 3 gigs of RAM to a max of 4 gigs. Seems to run slow when connected to the Internet and the performanence jumps to 70% or better of cpu usage when on the net

3/29/2014 9:38:46 AM I have been satisfied with many of the features of this computer and I continue to use it because there are some things that I can only do on it. I had gotten an iMac but I decided to keep the Dell as long as it was working well - so far, so good!

I am unable to resolve this issue because I don't know what caused the problem or where to find out what caused the problem.

9/23/2010 9:19:09 AM For the first year I used PitStop and was very satisfied. After upgrading to PC Matic, I now have lost printer functions and my Adobe Element no longer works. Working back and forth with one of your techs (Vince) I now have my Main HP LaserJet 1020 working. I have tried to reinstall Adobe Element without success. Also after running PC Matic I only had a 1 week ago restore point that did not work. I have expanded the memory for restore points and am still looking for a way to restore Adobe Element Printer so that I can convert Office documents to PDF form.

12/18/2012 2:32:38 PM Old mother-board, but new hard drive and operating system. Two older memory cards, two newer ones. Just not getting the improvements in speed or functionality that I hoped for, not sure why. A lot of web pages load slowly, and are very jerky to navigate around...hard to page down without long pauses. Browser freezes. Doesn't matter that I'm using an old version (3.6.23) of Firefox, version 17 is just as bad, and version 12 not great either. Not sure how to analyze for problem.
