    Exclamation Laptop Help!

    Just bought an laptop at futureshop this morning, and I'm already having issues. Firstly the touchpad and keyboard aren't responsive, so I plugged in a USB mouse and it worked fine.

    Now while doing window's set up it asks me to name my computer, since I can't type anything yet I just used the default name and clicked next. Now it appears to be frozen.

    What should I do? I just don't know because it's still in the set up phase...turn it off? I guess it's my only option since I can't even do alt+ctrl+dlt. Mouse is responsive but it's just been an hourglass for the last few minutes.

    Are you kidding? What else would you do other than take it back?

    Refunded it yesterday. The fact that the power button wouldn't even turn it off when it was frozen sealed that decision. I just wasn't sure if those problems were at all common, but no point in wasting money on a brand new POS.
