    Reverted back to 8.1 and now 10 keeps auto installing at every boot up


    I upgraded to Windows 10. I didn't like it. I reverted back to 8.1. Now, every time I turn my laptop on, the Windows Update screen pops up and starts installing Windows 10. I have changed auto update settings to ask me first, but to no avail. I even selected DO NOT check for updates, to no avail. How do I get this to stop? Thanks.

    :)

    C5-00 Time keeps resetting to 1am

    Hi



    Had my C5-00 for a week or so now and all been ok except this morning. The time reset itself to 1am and the date to yesterday. I took off the auto clock and set it myself with the correct date. 15 or so minutes later it reverted back to 1am (but today's
    date this time)



    I have now turned it off and back on and set the time/date (which it asks on 1st boot every time! Strange) and set it back to auto-update.



    As of now it is keeping its time/date but seems strange. Is this a known issue? Is there a fix? I have tried the phone update but it says everything is up-to-date.



    Thanks,

    Steve

    Windows 10 slowed down my PC's performance

    I had serious issues with my computer being slow. Boot up took forever and forget looking things up on the net. I finally had to revert back to Windows 8 then upgrade to 8.1. It didn't revert back to 8.1 like it said it would so it took most of the day
    to get things back to 8.1 and now its back to running like it was!! I will never upgrade to 10 until their performance issues are fixed.
