Hello! (My first thread here!) My mom bought a laptop online (I know how it sounds...). It's Lenovo's Thinkpad x240. Problem is, it appears to be running a pirated Windows 7. (Also it's not a clean installation, but just a computer that somebody used for some time. So I'd like to format it.) I...

Hey, I just made an account to get some help on this issue. My PC is only just a year old, and I've never had any problems with it before this. I was playing Skyrim, noticed it was flickering a bit which is unusual as I specifically set my desktop up to be a gaming set-up. I alt-tabbed to see...

I want to say what I'm looking for in a laptop and get input from the W7 community on what I should buy. I'm not that brand specific, but usually I buy from Dell. I already have a home laptop, and it's sure to stay home even though I know it's meant to be portable, but I want it to be...
