 PC slowing right down - Stuartli
>> The PC's five years old. How did a 5 year old PC end up with Windows 10?>>

Why shouldn't it? My Dell desktop is seven and a half years old and runs very happily on Windows 10.

There has been the odd problem, normally sorted reasonably quickly, but the AMD Radeon 4200 graphics (in my case) is now regarded as requiring Legacy drivers, something Microsoft doesn't supply other than a very basic driver now.

I have a less than a year old Dell Vostro i5 laptop, which I keep purely for emergency purposes and which is updated regularly. But even though it's working on a minimal level (just Waterfox and the odd utility are installed on it), it takes far longer than the Dell desktop to fire up...:-) :-)
