My new computer has never run properly. I have done 2 re-installs, with the
assistance of Dell's technicians; and they want me to do a 3rd re-install. I
would like to try to save the last one. Can anyone help me with some repair
or cleanup or
partial re-install. It's not a virus, I have run several different types,
and it appears to be clean. Please help, I can't go through another of their
re-installs.
