I'm not too sure you know and I didn't even think about it:0 What about my emails etc? Blimey? You know, the more I think about it the more I think I might just cut my losses and buy a new one. I'm sure they will have some deals coming up as Easter approaches.

Thanks for bringing it to my attention Kaz;)

You should be using KeePass for saving and generating of passwords otherwise it's asking for trouble. This way you only ever have to remember one password and the rest follow.

Christ this thread being bumped sends a shiver down my spine,bloody nightmare time it was,eventually got sorted at scan.co.uk well worth a look
 
Thank you all. I'm using my Tablet at the moment for browsing but like to use a laptop. No doubt I will spend hours upon hours deciding which one to buy now.

If it's just the basics a small Acer is good,had my cheap one for years and i'm on it 12 hrs a day,anything more complicated is above me.
I brought a back up Acer from Amazon,another small one that turns into a ipad not that i can use that one handed haha
 
I know they have a bad rep from people who have never owned one but Dell can be good value and well built for the £300 mark, if you buy one at that price point get an SSD to bang in there too as it will benefit nicely compared to the ones they usually put in there.

Also windows 10 is good IMO I don't know why so many people are having problems with it or what they were expecting when switching to a brand new operating system, in many ways it's slicker than windows 7 and faster loading for a lot of things, more suited to SSD's too. If you are buying new it means you are starting from scratch anyway, most of the problems people are having is with the upgrade from 7(I've done that on my main PC and from scratch on another machine) and expecting all your programs and drivers to work perfectly without some manual updates(most of the updates were done for me for a change it used to be you had to do it all yourself) and maybe having to find alternative programs that play better with windows 10 until the software vendors themselves provide the updates. I thought everyone knew when you move to a new operating system not everything will be 100% compatible. Windows 10 is working great so far for me and I can see it surpassing Windows 7 as my favorite as they inevitably improve upon it.
