Laptop Captiva 100741 with 250 GB SSD, 8 GB RAM, 15.6" display, Intel i5-1235U (no OS)

Captiva I10-0741GE is a 15.6-inch business and office laptop with an Intel Core i5-1235U processor, integrated Intel Iris Xe graphics, 8GB of RAM and a 250GB solid-state drive. The configuration is intended for everyday productivity, basic multimedia and occasional use of optical media via the built-in DVD-RW. The unit in the Source data ships with Windows 11 Home preinstalled, and the power supply unit is not included.

Advantages

The 12th-generation Intel Core i5-1235U and Intel Iris Xe graphics deliver a balance of energy efficiency and performance suited to typical office applications and web-based tasks. A 250GB SSD provides faster system boot and application load times compared with traditional hard drives. The internal DVD-RW offers the ability to read and write CDs and DVDs when legacy optical media are required.

Suitable for

• General office productivity: word processing, spreadsheets, email and web browsing
• Remote work and videoconferencing with common collaboration tools
• Media playback and light photo editing using integrated graphics
• Occasional reading and writing of CDs or DVDs

When it may not be suitable

This configuration is not intended for demanding gaming, heavy video editing, 3D rendering or other CPU/GPU‑intensive professional workloads; the integrated graphics and 8GB of RAM limit performance in those scenarios. The 250GB SSD offers limited local storage for large media libraries or extensive backups, and a compatible power supply must be obtained separately as it is not included.

How to use

Unpack the laptop and connect a compatible power supply before first use. Power on and follow the Windows 11 setup wizard to create user accounts, configure regional settings and join networks. Use the built-in Wi‑Fi or Bluetooth to connect to wireless networks and peripherals. Insert optical discs when you need to read or write CDs/DVDs. Manage storage and installed applications through Windows settings and enable automatic updates and security features for ongoing protection.

What to consider before purchase

• Confirm that 250GB of internal SSD capacity is sufficient for your files or plan for external/secondary storage if needed
• Check whether 8GB of RAM meets your multitasking needs; upgrading RAM may be required for heavier workloads
• Ensure you can obtain a compatible power supply, since the PSU is not included
• Decide if an internal DVD‑RW is required, as many modern workflows rely on external or network storage

Usage recommendations

Keep the operating system and drivers updated, use a lightweight antivirus solution, and move large media files to external SSD or network storage to preserve internal capacity. If you expect heavier multitasking or larger local storage needs, plan for a memory upgrade or secondary storage before regular deployment.
