Hi,

It seems like the Operating System is not functioning properly even though you already did reset it. Did you reset the laptop using its factory reset disc or just the built in factory image? I would suggest running a complete factory reset using a disc that normally comes with the laptop when your purchase one or you can also order it from the manufacturer of the laptop for about $50 more or less. If it came with Windows 10 you can also just create a bootable Windows 10 USB or disc to reset it.

Here's how to create a bootable Windows 10 USB or disc:

And here's also a guide on how to completely install Windows 10:
