So far so good. Really want to use the multiple virtual desktops feature ďcoming from nearly 10 years of running Ubuntu, Linux Mint, and other Linux dirivitives this is something that is familiar to me). However, it's not so clear on how to enable and use this feature without an internet search (something I've yet to do).\n\nInstallation came with a minor hiccup that may pose a serious issue for those with less experience. Being that I was transitioning from Ubuntu to Windows, my drive was littered with several partions, most being formatted ext4. Of course, windows needs NTFS, so when the time came, I deleted all partitions (I previously backed up important data) and attempted to create a new NTFS partition across the entire 500GB HDD. Windows however, refused to recognize this new partition. So instead, I had to take out my Ubuntu Live DVD, noted up, and discovered in the partition editor that windows was improperly creating the partition. Deleting and creating a new NTFS partition in Linux solved the problem and windows happily accepted the new partion at this point.\n\nI do like the design of the start menu. It makes finding frequently used apps simple, and the customization is really handy. I'm still very much getting used to running windows after having run Linux almost exclusively for the last 5-10 years, so I'm not going to criticize my lack of knowledge of where some settings are hiding. However, I will knock a star off for the partioning issue. Someone without access or knowledge of Linux or alternative partioning tools may very well think that the HDD or the entire computer was dead at that point and wasted money on unnecessary hardware. Using another operating system to fix something the windows installer should have handled just isn't acceptable I'm my opinion.

Overall this a good OS. The start menu is back from it's hiatus in Windows 8 and the layout of the GUI is attractive enough. I am very impressed with how fast it runs. I am running it on a Core 2 duo E8400 system with 8 gb ram and the everyday tasks are snappy and virtually instant. \r\n\r\nOf course there is a negative side to this product and that is the forced updates. Unlike Windows 7 and 8 you can no longer choose whether to install updates, they are mandatory. Even worse is Windows now also forces driver updates. So if you're using a custom graphics driver for example, Windows may suddenly decide you need one of it's verified drivers instead. Of course you can simply reinstall your old driver afterward but I must say that is a bit of a pain..\r\n\r\nOverall though this a good product, it could be great if a bit more control were offered to the end user, and such as it is I give it four out of five stars.

I replaced the disk drive on a Windows Vista laptop with a new disk drive. Just unscrew it from\nthe bottom and it will just pop out. Purchase a similar or larger size disk drive and pop it back\ninto the connector. Put back the screws and you're ready to load the Windows 10 disk.\nJust follow the instructions on loading the program disk and before you know it, you have \nalmost a brand new computer. Not too hard to do. Save yourself the price of buying a new\nlaptop.
