Hi, would the age of the laptop make this mistake? The HP laptop was like 5-8 years old and I didn't want to buy a new laptop as I did not have the money for it. If the laptop's age was the case then I would have to buy a new one but I will hear from your opinion.

Hi @TheDumbkid,

 

Yes, there is a possibility as this PC is old, could cause this issue. However, I recommend you contact phone support and see what options they can offer.

For that to happen, we will give you additional instructions/information via Private Message.

Please check your inbox on the forums page for the private message.
