====================================================

Well, having purchased the above on the 5th of this month and already seeing problems, maybe I'll absorb the 15% restocking fee and return to Best Buy asap...but wanted to check here first...

found a "Windows has recovered from an unexpected shutdown" message just now, leaving me at the setup screen with nothing further possible except to force off using the on/off button.

HP is already scheduled to call me today at 5 PM PDT for a complete system recovery...maybe wasting my time considering the track record so far? This is supposed to be the biggest and best thus far--$850 to attest to that of my hard-earned money -- 10 GB RAM and six-core processor!

Mouse cursor is also weird, kind of going where it wants to go, when it wants...

Should I at least do a malwarebytes scan? I have the free version of AVAST installed with no reports of any problems...

Next move?
