Done with old laptop’s upgrade effort

Other Techie Shit

I got an email from H Power Computing asking if I wanted to replace my motherboard or not on the M2800. Apparently they didn’t read my last message to them telling them go ahead as a go ahead. So since I had the chance, I rolled that decision back and told them never mind, just restore it to the Windows 7 OS running… Continue Reading

Fixing this old laptop might get expensive!!

H Power Computing also messaged me about my M2800 laptop having Win10 installed. It’s not installing. They believe the motherboard is bad.

Other Techie Shit

So in attempting to use my old Dell M2800 laptop for the online meeting, I decided to go ahead and upgrade it to Windows 10. I’ve been trying to upgrade it all day and evening now. It keeps erroring out. I purchased the Win10 upgrade so I’m kinda committed or will just waste my money because it’s… Continue Reading
