Recently I purchased a brand new all-in-one desktop computer. It arrived safely in a timely fashion. I was excited to start using it but quickly found that I could only go as far as the defaultuser0 screen. I called both the seller for help, (which was no help) and Amazon where I ordered from (also no help) After several attempts to unlock the screen I am still unable to use the computer. If I return it for a refund they will charge me for the restocking fee. I don't want to keep it for fear of something else going wrong. What would you do?

I would have returned it. I hope that thr restocking fee is not so high. It is shame that they could not help. The customer service is not professional and ethically they should return it without charging any thing.

@MaddieMae that's why I shop on Ebay. you don't have to go
through all the hoops & loops that other places put you through.

Reformat the desktop. There is a special key, depending on the brand u buy. ALT plus F3 or F2 or F4
It will auto boot to boot screen

I'd TAKE it to a Amazon place to have them look at it & help FIX it
or I'd let them have it back & just pay the restocking fee & be done
& I wouldn't EVER buy a computer or any appliance like that online.

I would seek as much as I can before returning it.

They wouldn't and I certainly don't want to deal with these people ever again.

If it's defective, you should not be charged a restocking fee. I would return it. Have a good week and good luck.
