|
| 1/13/2013 9:18:53 PM | It's been fairly stable for a Dell 1720 Vista Laptop. It just is getting slow and the CPU is out of control. |

|
| 3/12/2010 10:35:31 PM | Dell 1720,love it. |
|
| 12/23/2010 12:34:05 AM | I love this little Dell inspiron 1720 but it would have been better if dell offered more video card updates with their laptops. And if they would work more with intel, ati, and other main hardware manufactureres to make better/more updated drivers for their longterm computer users! |
|
| 10/19/2009 3:24:22 PM | just recently started having problems. can't remember when purchased |
|
| 2/16/2010 9:16:45 PM | Ricoh 1394 OHCI compliant Host Controller not working |

|
| 5/2/2009 7:17:35 PM | I just feel it should be more reliable and faster |
|
| 5/24/2009 12:27:45 AM | it locks up sometimes but only when i run progams with heavy resources |
|
| 5/28/2009 11:05:30 PM | Windows Genuine Advantage is claiming "i may be a victim of software counterfeiting". Helpful. |
|
| 7/9/2009 7:54:42 PM | I have had to reboot but not frequently. I also have the blue screen problem occasionaly. It just pops up and then it shuts down. |
|
| 2/6/2010 1:00:10 PM | Dell 1720 |
|
| 8/17/2009 11:00:24 PM | 1720 2.5ghz,800fbs,4g ram,256mb video, run great. |
|
| 6/20/2014 9:00:55 PM | Started having difficulties with latest update on June 11, 2014. Freezes. To shut down have to take out battery and put back in. |
|
| 7/10/2014 9:30:21 PM | many problems in the recent months |
|
| 7/4/2014 6:35:56 PM | I will have to try it for a few weeks to decide if I am satisfied enough to keep using the program. |
|
| 7/7/2013 11:13:17 PM | I will give you more information once I start using the computer again. Sincerely, Scott Wall |
|
| 7/14/2013 7:45:29 PM | Not quite happy with Windows Vista. Prefer to Windows 7 and 8 but not Windows XP |
|
| 4/12/2014 10:03:48 PM | So far I am pleased other than the fact that the program took so long to run and fix things. It also takes too long just to scan. |
|
| 6/6/2014 11:21:41 AM | Has had malware embedded in it for a year that is hard to get out. |
|
| 7/21/2013 6:46:56 PM | dont know yet |
|
| 6/26/2013 9:53:47 PM | Originally supplied with Vista. Definately better with WIN7 |
|
| 9/5/2015 7:40:18 PM | cannot remmber exactly when I brought this computer |
|
| 1/3/2013 9:40:34 AM | . |
|
| 8/17/2013 12:14:13 AM | It is a secondary system for email and document processing and does okay. |
|
| 11/11/2012 11:16:49 PM | . |
|
| 8/31/2015 6:39:54 PM | Only had it one day so far. |
|
| 3/15/2015 7:20:58 PM | very s;ow on startup |
|
| 6/12/2015 4:20:44 PM | It's OK for an older PC |
|
| 6/15/2015 12:03:35 PM | It's a older model but it does it's job |
|
| 4/9/2011 4:45:37 PM | I like my PC a lot. My only main issue is keeping it up to date and maintaining it so that i do not see the "blue screen of death" and have it crash on me. I hate having to restore back to point before updates and it jsut makes things frustrating when you are working on a project and the pc crashes!!! Thats the last thing you ever want! |
|
| 2/14/2015 3:25:34 PM | freezes sometimes |
|
| 4/13/2015 10:24:20 AM | it's old......but works pretty good |

|
| 4/3/2015 5:13:18 PM | It's a bit old but still serviceable. |
|
| 8/27/2015 9:33:15 PM | It is 8 years old. |
|
| 9/4/2014 1:30:21 AM | already did this... |
|
| 1/5/2015 9:09:14 PM | it's been a great PC, but my Dell support expired and due to the age of the laptop they didn't seem interested in offering support. |
|
| 10/5/2015 2:09:41 PM | It's a 64 bit and it's only running 32. I love that it's Windows 7. |
|
| 11/10/2014 4:56:34 PM | Unable to charge and new batteries unavailable from Dell!! |
|
| 10/15/2014 9:50:58 PM | Just want it to run as smoothly as possible |
|
| 2/19/2015 10:08:47 PM | Would like for it to be faster, but it is not bad at this point. |
|
| 11/1/2014 11:26:18 AM | Hard drive too odd to be able to add anorher |
|

|
| 10/24/2016 4:09:12 PM | While attempting to get to pc matics site last evening to protect this computer, I was attacked by some shopperz/up note ware. PC Matic was down for maintenance and I had to nuke the drive and start over today. It sucked. |

|
| 12/19/2010 9:15:39 PM | I've always had good luck with Dell. |
|
| 12/12/2010 12:34:15 PM | Windows scan found 3 severe issues, I'm hoping PCMatic can find and fix them |

|
| 11/1/2011 10:58:56 PM | wished it ran faster and stopped locking up while gaming. |
|
| 1/12/2012 10:09:07 AM | Questioning whether I need to purchase a new one. |
|
| 1/19/2012 10:07:07 PM | It's ok for the amount of use that I do. The only problem is that sometimes when we are typing the cursor moves away to the middle of the text. |
|

|
| 4/18/2010 7:16:54 AM | I just replaced the hard drive and upgraded to Windows 7. I am not happy with Windows 7, not compatable with a lot of old programs |
|
| 4/23/2010 11:23:29 PM | is was great starting off but as time goes on and trial game downloads and facebook applications has slowed the pc down dramatically and the only thing that i see i can do is transfer everything that i want to keep to an external harddrive and wipe the harddrive and start fresh |
|
| 4/12/2010 8:31:00 AM | it runs slow, but otherwise is okay |
|

| 5/24/2015 11:21:30 AM | \Since I have used PC matic my experence have been disappointed. This system has no firewall. This is nothing more than arepair maintence and very weak at best. As far as anti malaware i give a mid rating.Hear a few months ago my computer was on the verge of crash. I use Iolo system mechanic and may enough repairs so that I could save it from total crash.I don't believe that your product does what you advertise. However I still run it occ. Most of the improvements have been made by me wiping the disk and unloade stuff even though it shows I have fee space. Before I would try anymore of your products I would need to try free for a month before I could decide if it work. I feel like I lost $50. |
