Hey Buttons,
Do you have the latest custom updates for your version of Windows?

I don't think so and if you think that's the problem
where do I get the custom updates.

Open Internet Explorer, go to Tools/ Windows Updates. When the page opens click on Custom not Express.

Just because it is a new laptop does not mean that it has all the Updates Microsoft has put out. Jim is not talking about the Auto updates you get, but going to Microsoft's Update page and getting the Custom Updates - all of them.

Ok Thanks Buttons

I advise that you don't take any hardware updates unless you are having a problem with your hardware. From your first post it sounds like your harware is working just fine.
