And I have tried getting the Dell to join my existing network.

I have tried setting up a new network with the Dell as the primary PC with the two Win 7s joining it. My main PC is a home built tower and I have another Win 7 tower.

My major problem now is that I am unable to get the Win 10 and the towers to be part of the same network. i have cleaned out the bloatware and unwanted and unneeded preinstalled Win 10 programs and I am getting comfortable with the Win 10 interface.

I have moved my programs from the HP to the Dell and without too many changes. I started my PC journey with DOS back in 1987, so I have been through a number of upgrades over the years. The only reason I did not do a total reformat to Win 7 was because my son, who is a PC guru, said I needed to start to move to Win 10. I am another Win 7 hardcore user like And like him, I just replaced an HP laptop running Win 7 with a Dell xps running Win 10 Pro. This topic was modified 1 year, 2 months ago by Caribconsult. I know the end is near for Win7, upgrades are difficult if not impossible to find, and if my current nicely running Win7 ever takes a serious dump, Win10 is the answer. Between these two, my mind about moving to Windows10 has totally changed.

The install is fairly ’s not scary like NT was. Plus the interface more resembles classic windows and is easier to use. My suggestion to owners of recent laptops is change to a SSD, it really makes a difference, for only about $55 or so, and if you feel gutsy, go search MS and use the free MS Win10 to overwrite or totally trash the factory install and you’ll appreciate the boost in performance. Replacing the old SATA drive with a Kingston SSD 400Gb drive also helped. It runs like it should, smooth and responsive. So I found, somewhere on Microsoft’s site a FREE ISO file to burn your own Win10 Home installation, completely legal and a totally clean installation, not loaded down with lots of junk like the pre-installed windows than often comes with commercial units. I tried ‘downgrading’ it to Win7 but the hardware didn’t like that(!!!). It was so slow even my wife, who is no tech wiz, found it difficult to use because the response was so slow. We had bought my wife an ACER laptop a few years ago, nicely equipped, Intel5 CPU, 6Gb RAM, and 500Gb drive, etc, and Win10…no choice, it didn’t come with anything else. I’m one of these I’m a firm believer in not upgrading yourself into oblivion, but something recently happened that changed my mind completely.

Many of us who continue to use Win7 do so because we’re familiar with the interface, it’s pretty well bug free, and it runs nicely on the appropriate hardware and many don’t particularly care for the cartoon-like GUI of Win10.
