    Anyone recommend a local who can help? I've Googled the problem but can I trust them who volunteered their help?

    Yeah any branded computer from the last ten years or so will probably have a restore partition - back up your documents and do a restore, will literally run as fast as the day you got it.

    What problem specifically do you get? No point going to a computer engineer if it's going to be simple to sort.
