Question

New laptop slow

Apr 21, 2018 9:06AM PDT

I just bought a Acer nitro i7 with 1tb hd, 4 gb nividia graohics, 256 SSD, 2.8 GHz processor and 8 gb of RAM. Since turning it on it's painfully slow and the disk space is at 100%. Can anyone help me out ?

Clarification Request
A new laptop should not have 100% disk space in use.

I wonder if you meant 100% disk use? But you would have to clarify.

As it stands it sounds defective on arrival. Take it back for a good one.
