2/19/2010 7:08:53 PM This computer was working well until January 4, 2010. On that date the system would not boot up. After getting the software and files reinstalled though the "Solution Station" on 1/4/10, I have had to work with Solution Station an additional 4 times to do complete factory reinstallation of our software because the computer would not boot up. (This problem usually occurs after not shutting down properly because the system "freezes up.") The Solution Station representatives have not been able to correctly diagnose the problem with our system yet as to the cause of the problems with freezing, improper shut downs, and inability to boot up. The last time I had to work with a representative to do a "clean sweep" factory reinstallation of the software was on 2/14/10. That representative recommended we purchase the Dell PC Tune Up software to help with the problems which have been causing our computer to eventually fail. The entire process has been extremely frustrating. At this point I have not been satisfied with the help from the Solution Station representatives primarily because they have only been able to help with getting the factory reinstallation of the software done--no one has been able to properly diagnose the root cause of our problems.
