|

|
| 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! |
|
| 12/11/2010 5:02:37 AM | It has been running too slow for some time now. |
|

|
| 10/31/2010 5:34:18 PM | E-mail program frequently freezes-won't close. It appears there is a conflict with another program. |
|
| 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. |

|
| 2/8/2016 5:02:57 PM | computer is slow |
|
| 6/15/2015 12:03:35 PM | It's a older model but it does it's job |
|
| 7/2/2015 10:35:29 AM | Our other laptop is faster after several scans, now we're working on my primary work laptop. |
|

|
| 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. |
|
| 6/12/2015 4:20:44 PM | It's OK for an older PC |
|
| 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. |
|
| 10/15/2014 9:50:58 PM | Just want it to run as smoothly as possible |
|
| 2/14/2015 3:25:34 PM | freezes sometimes |
|
| 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. |
|
| 9/4/2014 1:30:21 AM | already did this... |
|
| 7/10/2014 9:30:21 PM | many problems in the recent months |
|
| 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. |

| 1/27/2010 8:25:38 AM | Love inspiron 1720 and 1420 |
|

|
| 3/12/2010 10:35:31 PM | Dell 1720,love it. |
|
| 9/22/2010 9:53:46 AM | I like the computer but it runs very slow and the more microsoft updates I add on the slower it gets. |
|
| 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! |
|
| 7/20/2010 5:30:29 AM | performance was good, but last few month it is too slow. Closing down is very slow. Microsoft Office 2010 very slow. Strange beeps from time to time. Opening pages in general slow. |
|
| 7/18/2011 7:58:11 PM | locks up, gave DSL error message. used mainly for Facebook. Has not locked up during "safe Mode". |
|
| 5/2/2009 7:17:35 PM | I just feel it should be more reliable and faster |
|
| 5/2/2009 7:24:59 PM | Should be more reliable and faster in my opinion |
|
| 5/24/2009 12:27:45 AM | it locks up sometimes but only when i run progams with heavy resources |
|
| 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. |
|
| 5/28/2009 11:05:30 PM | Windows Genuine Advantage is claiming "i may be a victim of software counterfeiting". Helpful. |

| 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. |
