THanks. Just to make it clear, I am a bona fide techtard. I use Chrome and Firefox. I never updated Chrome or saw any notice about it, I will do a search and find out how. Windows 10 updates are breathing down my neck right now. I use the free Avast. Is all the above sufficient, do you think?

I think it is very unlikely you need to do anything. But you can check to see if you have a Intel CPU Usually your case will have a sticker on it if it does, or hold down the Widows key (bottom left, with a flag on it) and the Pause/Break key at the same time and let go, which should give you that basic info. Or type msinfo32 in your run command (Windows key and the r key) and hit OK for a lot of info. You can also run dxdiag if you want more interesting data.

If it is Intel then download and run the Intel® Driver & Support Assistant and it should tell you what needs to be updated, and provide what is needed. Thanks be to God .

Thank you very much!

My laptop says “Intel Inside” Core 17.

Sadly it is Windows 10 which I hate.

I have a desktop but not using it yet.

Being a techtard, I never know what to do/not do unless a kind person has mercy and tells me. :-)
