    I have a Dell Inspiron 3268 that will not run Windows 11. I enjoy using the "Paint 3D" app and "Photos Legacy" applications among other apps my windows 10 OS that came with my computer . I have about 6-7 hundred dollars to spend on a new computer and need something that will allow me to enjoy processing my photos and using it mainly as a media server with great graphics and the latest High def audio.

    Dell Inspiron 3268 i5 8gb Ram HDMI signal processing

    My Samsung Smart TV was doing a magnificent job processing my Dell Inspiron 3268 i5 8gb Ram HDMI signal flawlessly utilizing the company's "HDR+ Mode". Now suddenly It is limited to the extremly DULL "Standard" or (default) or TORCH =Dynamic mode(s) respectively.
    What is going on here? It could be either my PC or an issue with My Smart TV or perhaps both. Both are less than a year old. I need guidance to run down the issue. I have enjoyed and incredible lifelike viewing experience far too long to turn back now. HELP???

    suggestions for updating Dell Inspiron 580S from Windows 7 to Windows 10?

    I'm trying to update a Dell Inspiron 580S desktop computer from Windows 7 (SP1 with latest updates) to Windows 10. I downloaded the Media Creation Tool; it ran ok until partway through installing Windows 10 when it stopped with the message "This PC can't
    be upgraded to Windows 10... No action is needed." Following the suggestions in a July 9 2019 post to this forum (Redirecting) I tracked down
    Dell's list of computers compatible with current versions of Win10. The Inspiron 580S isn't on the list.

    Any suggestions of how I might proceed from here (other than "buy a new computer")?

    Thanks...
