I just did a ‘System Restore’ on my 2005 HP computer.
I dreaded it because I am no computer whiz but after having gone through the procedure, I am thinking that I should have done it years ago.
Love my Windows XP. I don’t know what to do with my 5-month old laptop with Windows 7. Will use it as paper weight.
You could excise the Windows demon from your laptop and install a different OS. If you want to get rid of it, let me know instead of using it as a paper weight. Whatever you do, do NOT upgrade to windows 8. You don’t have to be a computer wiz to get rid of windows.. maybe a few priests and some holy water and a couple of dos commands would do the trick. Leave the room if the monitor spins around and vomits.. I think that’s a bad sign.
