Wish it came with instruction book, etc.... As someone who is not very IT oriented and only upgrading to this because my old HP was Windows XP and I grew weary of all the "issues" of old system, suddenly getting Windows 7 with whole new look and...

Windows 7 laptop ; decent speed & RAM ; Exterior in perfect condition

LCD (not LED) screen, and as such is a bit on the dark side ; Laptop WILL NOT charge battery. Thought it was a battery issue, so I actually bought another, only to find that the charging system is the issue ; Refurbisher obviously never even booted...
