this laptop is only 2 days old..
should i give it back and get the more expensive one

Went through the same problem with another program and going from 125% to a lower solved my problem. You can always put it back where you want it to be. If I understand you correctly you would like to make your desktop Icons bigger. Hold down the shift key and roll your mouse wheel back and forth.

If it is only 2 days old, you should get one that works or have them explain how to use it. A more expensive one is not the answer.

I will help as much as I can.

There seems to be much that you do not understand on the computer.

This is what you do. Everything that you do not understand write it down. Go to the store and have them explain it to you. You may not understand everything, but write it down. Then we will work on it together. Please, do not get upset, we will work on this together as friends. OK?.

To be honest, I do not know enough about the computer to know if it is good or not.
Download this and tell me what is says.

You have a very nice computer for your purposes. Any problems that you are having is because you do not understand how to use it correctly, we will take care of that.

For your purposes the cheaper one is fine.

 

[cocod2]

so the more expensive one i showed you doesnt make a difference
except the whole thing is made of plastic

my other one is plastic and metal

i guess that is how they do things now
sighhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh

 

[richc46]

Dont be rough with the computer and it will last for a long time. It has good specs. Nice ram, nice hard drive.

 

[cocod2]

so the cost doesnt always mean it is better..
i was gonna give it back and get the other
but the expense.......NOT
LOL

 

[richc46]

I think you want the internet, maybe some video and a game or two. If I am right your computer is no problem.

 

[cocod2]

LOL I play the pixie pit scrabble with a few people for years now
and i want to transfer pictures and some videos.... and i need my word processor part for other things

 

[richc46]

I know about computers, you save your money. The computer that you have is fine.

 

[cocod2]

Thank you.......
Once I learn about this windows 7 and IE 8

[richc46]

We will work together, you will learn and you will be very happy with your computer.

 

[cocod2]

Thank you so much!!!!!

If we are going to take care of our computer and enjoy it, we have to know the rules. Take your time, no rush, take days if you like. Read this, ask questions and you will become quite knowledgable.
