HP support is terrible

Me had the computer several times a week with minor issues until "HP Assistant" told me I needed to update the BIOS. The update seemed to install without any problems, but then the system randomly crashed - it just hung and required a reboot. HP Support reinstalled the BIOS update, but the computer did not turn off normally afterward. Rebooted every time. A second call to HP support resulted in being told I needed to reinstall Windows. I declined and was told my only option was to get a second tier of support, which cost me $50. I did that and the tech checked a few things and then "rolled back" the BIOS update. But accidental freezes did not exist. I am returning this computer and bought a Dell from Costco to replace it. This HP is a decent computer for the price, but don't mess with the BIOS and expect good tech support. The only good thing about this purchase for me is Revain's good return policy.

Pros
  • FAST PROCESSOR: 10th gen Intel Core i7-10700, 8 cores, 2.90GHz base clock, up to 4.8GHz with Intel Turbo Boost Technology
Cons
  • Not bad, but...
