Windows 10: can someone help me, my mom just sent me an old used gateway NV59C laptop from the US i...

sorry i am new in this computer technology, it might be a silly or useless question to most but i have no clue how to update it, i already tried to download windows 10 from Microsoft but when i start to download the media creation tool, it gives me this error code after opening it We're not sure what happened, but we're unable to run this tool on your PC. if you continue experiencing problems, reference the error code when contacting customer support. Error code : 0x80072f8f - 0x20000. just for the record i only want the laptop for my kids to use it and watch videos or do kids stuff in i

RD Gateway Server - how to remove permanently

Hello, At my previous job, I was asked to take certain steps (don't remember now what they were) but it was to set up RDP to use a Gateway server. Now that I've changed jobs, I still see the old IP and Gateway server information. I went to registry and deleted the entries from Terminal client and servers. However, I still see a server name listed under RDP-Advanced-Settings-Use these RD Gateway Server settings. I have opted for - Do not use RD Gateway server but was wondering how to remove the old server name entry completely. Thanks

 

Gateway laptop stuck on gateway screen help

My Gateway laptop was running on windows 10. Windows ran some updates. Its now unable to get passed the Gateway screen.

In bios I tried

• disabling csm support
  
• disabling secure boot mode
  
• changing the boot order to prioritize the usb
  

I have tried using windows 10 creating bootable usb

1. I click install and it takes me to windows setup where I accept the license terms and hit next
   
2. WINDOWS SETUP WINDOW Two options are Given
   

• UPGRADE- not available if you start your computer using windows media
  
• CUSTOM- It asks where i want to install Windows / A warning sign at the bottom reads --windows can't be installed on this drive--
  
  INSIDE THE WINDOWS SETUP MENU
  
• Drive 0 Unallocated space....... total size 0.0MG....free space 0.0MG
  
• a few options at the bottom read refresh, delete, format, new. load driver, extend.
  
• if I choose load and browse media selecting the usb, I get an error that no drivers were found. there's no room to format... IS MY SSD not recognized?
  

IF I TRY TROUBLESHOOTING AT THE ADVANCED OPTIONS

• Startup Repair - could not repair your PC
  

I dont think my SSD is being recognized...

I am unsure of what configurations in BIOS could be made to fix this issue.
