    Trying to upgrade to windows 10


    I started the update which had been downloaded from my reserve copy via Windows. After about 15 minutes, I came back into the room and the computer was off... I tried to restart...the light came on, but the screen remained black. I have let it sit for over 20 min. now, and still the same result.
    Help please?

    :)

  2. Windows Task Bar unresponsive

    Reverting back to 7 is not possible, who would of guessed? God damn wheres the **** support for this ****!

    I have also tried to use an Ethernet cable to connect to the internet and the same or similar problems arise (not being able to access the flashing or none flashing taskbar with along with the windows associated programs). I suppose the direction windows
    is going, that internet is just a useless thing of the past??

    Windows 11 or "9" must be the answer to the inbred thinking to windows 10. AWFUL COMPANY AND PRODUCT! thanks for the damn support Trying to upgrade to windows 10 ;) i feel appreciated as a customer.

    I will just disregard this message and revert back to Windows 7. This has been very disappointing. This is a Microsoft upgrade and a Microsoft issue, which there is minute support for. I use this computer for work purposes, and this experience has done nothing
    but conflict the way I make my money. Therefor, I will not be wasting my money on a company that has no interest in supporting their customers or taking the time (three years obviously was not nearly enough) to make sure,
    their product, is fully functional before it is pushed out.

    Please ignore this entire post unless there is a known fix or an update that solves the incompetency of this upgrade. I wish to not waste anymore of my time with dead ends. Wish me good luck in reverting back to 7 as I have little faith in this faulty operating
    system!

    Trying to upgrade to windows 10

    It's going to take much longer than 15 minutes to download/install W10, even if it was already downloaded it would take longer to install than the time you gave it.

    When I upgraded my laptop (haven't done my desktop yet) it was 15-18 minutes for the download, 2.6G. Then another 40 minutes or so, maybe not that long, for the install to completely finish.

    If you can do it please start over and give it time, the screen does turn dark and there were I think 3 maybe 4 reboots during the install. You might want to stay with it this time so you can see the process and what's going on. Depending on your system it might take a little longer than one would think.
