SL - sorry I don't know. I'm really not a computer guy. I bought a
high end Dell computer with my insurance $$ from when my house burned
earlier this year. Dell diagnosed the problem and said it was my SSD
and a tech is being dispatched to replace it on Friday when it
arrives. Luckily I have an old laptop to keep up with my email and
other important accouts.
