|
| 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! |
|
| 2/14/2011 6:13:45 AM | ??????????????? |
|
| 4/7/2011 8:18:32 AM | Most of the time its fine, but lately it is doing alot of non-response when I try to open programs like explorer |
|
| 10/31/2010 5:34:18 PM | E-mail program frequently freezes-won't close. It appears there is a conflict with another program. |

|
| 10/19/2010 2:25:44 PM | nn |
|
| 8/22/2010 9:42:43 AM | Boot time seems to be a little lengthy as well as several "blue-screen" crashes this past year... even though i use a regestry cleaner and disk cleanup regularly. |
|
| 12/12/2010 12:34:15 PM | Windows scan found 3 severe issues, I'm hoping PCMatic can find and fix them |
|

|
| 12/7/2010 1:20:00 AM | Don't like vista! |
|
| 12/23/2010 12:25:52 PM | When I go to the Dell help center and enter the model the reply is that the model can't be found. The Vista software is ok. However, it has a lot of problems with shut downs. |
|
| 11/14/2010 9:36:57 PM | Computer is great until my antivirus fizzled and can't get rid of warning messages and popups. |
|
| 5/31/2017 10:36:57 PM | ok for now |

|
| 7/3/2016 2:11:27 PM | This was my fiance's computer, and it was left to me when he passed away. |

|
| 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 |
|
| 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. |
|
| 6/26/2013 9:53:47 PM | Originally supplied with Vista. Definately better with WIN7 |
|
| 7/7/2013 11:13:17 PM | I will give you more information once I start using the computer again. Sincerely, Scott Wall |
|
| 8/17/2013 12:14:13 AM | It is a secondary system for email and document processing and does okay. |
|
| 7/21/2013 6:46:56 PM | dont know yet |

|
| 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. |
|

| 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. |
